Yeah, a company praising itself. Have you not heard that before? Also, I am talking here about cell phone RF front end modules, where the most dominant players- Qorvo, and Skyworks, are both American.

An English version please. From what I can understand from Google Translate, even this article is talking about how, Intel's R&D investment alone is greater than all Chinese design companies' revenue etc. While the money is there no doubt, it takes time, and a lot of skill and talent, and...

Not true. In fact, most Chinese companies will immediately choose a Chinese supplier if they reach the quality that they need. And examples are aplenty: AMEC- It has been making MOCVDs for many many years, but its MOCVDs weren't deemed good enough. However, in 2017, it was able to reach a...

Umm... No. This list is completely and totally incorrect.

I already have a teardown and component list for Huawei P20 Pro meant for International markets, can you please give me one for Chinese market? Why do I ask, because some components can be different based on demands, and suitability of RF front end.

Tell me how are 100% Apple products made in China? China produces pretty much no component of note in an iphone.

Huawei is absent from the whole RF front end supply chain. For some reason I didn't see this before. India is the second largest smartphone market in the world. While ASP may be still smaller, it is one of the largest markets even in terms of revenues. Other than that, while Europe may...

True, however, Intel and AMD still have a design capability that China currently doesn't have. And it is very hard to replicate and study CPU under zoom. Similarly, China doesn't also have the capability to manufacture CPU at advanced nodes, and has no ability to produce any chips without...

Exactly, my friend. Now you come to the point. But setting up anything rivaling x86 ISA and its ecosystem would require probably a decade or more of intense all in hardwork by thousands of thousands of coders. It is not an easy task, and if US restricts chips it would severly dent China. The...

Yes, and no doubt these companies will face no issues in China. But what about India, Germany, Australia. In India, at least one cannot survive without Google Ecosystem. And these companies are now getting a larger and larger of their revenue share outside. My friend. Firstly, AFAIK...

Huawei can indeed make a lot of chips, but not all. It still uses some broadcom, texas instruments, and qorvo components. Apart from that, not having access to Google Apps is pretty much a deathblow to any smartphone company outside China. China's chip doesn't power the world's best...

Chinese domestic chip market is not that much. You include primarily chips that are destined for export in mobiles which are made in China. If Apple, and other companies during a trade war, have to move their production elsewhere, than the Chinese chip market would shrink since such chips...

Yes, wars have casualties. But the one who survives, and is able to gain more wins. In this case, it is China that will suffer. Take pause, think, and swallow your pride for 7-8 more years, I would recommend.

But the eventually here is very different. In the case of US, they ALREADY KNOW where the resource stockpiles are, they know where they are located, they have done survey work there, they also know and have the technology to extract those resources. In China's case however, being cut off...

My friend, rare earths are not that rare at all. It is just that no body can compete with Chinese prices. You will find that at a slightly higher price, American, Canadian and Australian mines will open and begin production. Japan recently found a big rare earth discovery on its coast. Also...

Well, I commend that Chinese people have made China into a manufacturing giant, and this does serve well for China. But how is it relevant to our discussion here? IQ is often not the thing that determines progress, but hardwork, planning, stability, and vision are. Also, a high IQ person...

Japan won't allow it.

My friend, you totally misjudge my competence. Yes, it is foxconn that officially employs those people, but around 80% of the iphones built are destined for export, which will no longer be so, if they are moved elsewhere. So, even if another Chinese brand comes in to fill market void, it will...

Frankly, dude, the most hurt will be to Apple, than China, than US. Apple manufacturer in China and employs quite a lot of people. Apart from that, this battle is not symmetric. US still has a firm grip over components that China depends on and can't find alternatives to, while so is not the...

You can't. In a standard setting organization, all companies are needed to pledge that they will license their technology freely at FRAND rates (Free, Reasonable, and Non Discriminatory). Basically, a standard is like coming to common grounds. Any company that is granted a standard patent...
