Recently, German media paid attention to Huawei's latest mobile phone, writing an article "Huawei's Mystery Phone Shows Wireless Speeds as Fast as Apple".
Despite U.S. tech sanctions, Huawei's latest smartphone clearly demonstrated similar wireless speeds to Apple's latest iPhone in numerous tests, but more details about the device, which was flagged as a breakthrough for China, surfaced.
Bloomberg's tests of Huawei's new flagship model show that its bandwidth is similar to that of other 5G phones. This is in line with blog posts and videos on domestic social media that say Huawei's 5G capabilities.
Canadian national media wrote "Huawei's surprise smartphone launch fuels speculation over 5G chips."
Starting in 2019, the United States cut off Huawei's access to the chip-making tools necessary to produce the most advanced mobile phone models, and the company could only use stock chips to sell limited batches of 5G models. If Huawei and China can produce their own 5G chips, it will mark a major advance in their capabilities. Buyers of the phone have already posted teardown videos on social media and shared speed tests showing that the Mate 60 Pro is capable of outpacing the top 5G phones in download speeds, suggesting that it is in a similar competitive environment.
Dismantling companies around the world are also the first to get their hands on phones to see what's inside.
TechInsights analyst Dan Hutcheson said the phone is equipped with Huawei's HiSilicon chip division's new Kirin 9000s processor, which uses SMIC's advanced technology. Hutcheson said that if the 7+nm or 5nm process is used, production can be a very expensive process, and the level of technology surpasses Apple! For Huawei, it is a global leader in the field of future 5G telecommunications, symbolizing the rise of Chinese technology.
Dan Hutcheson believes that this marks a major milestone and breakthrough in China's semiconductor industry, as well as a disruptive move on the global stage.
The original SMIC N+1 7nm technology analyzed by TechInsights in 2022 was used in the MinerVA7 Bitcoin Miner ASIC application, making the chipset less sensitive to possible production process changes due to smaller production volumes. For SMIC's next-generation 7nm process, large-scale manufacturing is possible in a process that previously had yield issues. From the perspective of semiconductor process technology, this is the first commercial use of China's advanced process technology node supporting bitcell (embedded SRAM), opening the door to a completely domestic advanced SoC design and manufacturing ecosystem.
Dan Hutcheson is vice chairman of TechInsights Inc. He is a recognized authority in the semiconductor industry and received the SEMI Award for Excellence in Sales and Marketing in 2012 for delivering tremendous strategic and tactical marketing value to executives through the e-newsletter The Chip Insider; His book, The Proverbs of High Technology, and his many interviews with executives.
As some industry leaders put it, "He's the marketing voice and expert in the industry." "Dan Hutcheson methodically captured the essence of this industry and produced it in a way that benefits everyone... He has long been an integral part of the industry, and it's hard to imagine the industry without his contribution. ”
Huawei's release of a new mobile phone this time has once again been recognized by top foreign engineers, which is gratifying!
