We all know that the world's most advanced chip, either Qualcomm or MediaTek research and development, in recent years MediaTek has always taken the lead in releasing advanced process chips, but then will be overtaken by Qualcomm, In November 2021, MediaTek took the lead in releasing the world's first 4nm chip Dimensity 9000, in December Qualcomm released the Snapdragon 8 Gen1 processor, the running score is even higher than the Dimensity 9000, it can be said that Qualcomm in the field of advanced processes, has always been ahead of all semiconductor manufacturers, even Apple, Samsung is willing to bow down.
However, in 2019, Qualcomm lost miserably, it was no one else who lost, it was Huawei's first 5nm chip "Kirin 9000 processor" released by Huawei, and it was also the world's first 5G chip, not only that, since the birth of Huawei's Kirin 9000 processor, whether it is Qualcomm or MediaTek, including Apple and Samsung, no one can immediately release 5nm chips, Huawei once surpassed all manufacturers in the chip field, The Kirin 9000 processor has made Huawei the world's top three mobile phone chip manufacturers, and once had the strength to compete with Qualcomm and Apple.
Followed by Qualcomm and MediaTek, have successively released their own 4nm top chips, Apple also relied on TSMC's packaging technology to create the world's first M1 Ultra chip using the superposition process, Huawei also completely lost its competitive advantage, Qualcomm was once ahead, and released Qualcomm Snapdragon Gen2 processor, running score of more than 1.02 million points, now Qualcomm is leading again, and released the world's first 5.5G chip Snapdragon X75, catching Huawei by surprise.
I have to say that this is a big joke, to know that Huawei 5G communication technology leads the world, but even does not have the qualification to produce 5G chips, especially the 5.5G communication technology developed by Huawei, but once left all communication giants far behind, the result of the first 5.5G chip is not produced by Huawei, which is really a great irony, as Yu Chengdong said, Huawei's technology in the field of 5G leads the world, but does not have its own 5G chip, it is really funny.
According to the information officially disclosed by Qualcomm, the Qualcomm Snapdragon X75 processor supports ten-carrier aggregation, and can also easily achieve 10Gbps downlink speed in WiFi7 and 5G networks. A high-definition movie only takes 1 second to download.
Maybe at this time some people are curious, why is Qualcomm so powerful? Why is Huawei overtaken by Qualcomm?
In fact, Qualcomm is not so powerful, can easily achieve 10Gbps downlink speed, is not a great thing, because this kind of thing Huawei can also do, as early as last year, Huawei has made three key advances in 5.5G technology, it is Huawei that has pushed 5.5G technology to a new stage, it is Huawei's further breakthrough in 5.5G technology, it is also Huawei that has formulated 5.5G standards, and achieved rapid development in technology and industry, otherwise Qualcomm has the ability to build 5.5G chips, which is bound to be useless.
As we all know, Qualcomm has been focusing on chip technology, and has not spent effort to build 5G base stations, although Qualcomm is a technology-intensive enterprise, with 130,000 pieces of communication patent technology, but without the support of 5G base stations, no matter how powerful the technology can not play its original advantages, maybe you think that Qualcomm will catch Huawei by surprise, but in fact, since Huawei 5G technology leads the world, Qualcomm has to pay high 5G patent fees to Huawei every year.
Of course, the reason why Qualcomm can surpass Huawei is completely the ghost of the United States, it can be said that if it were not for the United States, the current 5.5G chip should be Huawei's first launch.
According to relevant sources, Huawei invested hundreds of billions of yuan, and finally had such an important result as the Kirin chip, originally thought that the global chip market pattern, about to undergo earth-shaking changes, but with a ban in the United States, TSMC can not be for Huawei foundry, Kirin chip processor is also completely stopped, now Huawei's Kirin chip inventory is directly cleared to zero, no inventory, no foundry channels, now Huawei can not even take out a Kirin chip, As a result, HiSilicon's market share has fallen to just 1%.
Therefore, Huawei cannot produce 5.5G chips, and it is naturally overtaken by Qualcomm.
Finally, I think Huawei was not caught off guard, on the contrary, Huawei has been in the field of chips and communications, have quite strong hard power, now the only deficiency, is stuck by the United States, resulting in Huawei can not produce its own 5G chips, but with the continuous development of Chinese science and technology, many domestic semiconductors are trying to break through the core technology, I have reason to believe that as long as the country breaks through the siege in the case of being stuck by the United States, then not only Huawei can be unlimited, Even all domestic semiconductor manufacturers can flourish, at that time, not only Huawei's 5G-related technology will continue to lead the world, Huawei chip technology will also hit all countries, and China's semiconductors will also rise completely.
