Huawei News and Analyses

Now we can all look forward to Kirin 970 in 2017.

InSE Security Solution??

What is it? What is it for? What does it entail?

India is exporting $5 billion worth of cell phone from China every month. Indian government should ask all Chinese manufactures to build cell phones in India. This will reduce trade deficit with China to large extent.

I think it is not really very much about asking, but rather providing the required incentives both in terms of taxes, land purchases and in terms of quality labor force, streamlined red tape, and generally a good and safe environment for profit-oriented companies to see the future clearly and invest accordingly.

Huawei, vivo and OPPO are doing extremely well offline

Huawei's Kirin 960 CPU

@TaiShang

OPPO is one aggressive marketing machine, indeed, and I am also not surprised to see Vivo doing well. I talked to couple of students and they were particularly fond of the sound quality of Vivo.

Nonetheless, I am not swayed by my Huawei plans.

So, P9 will use this processor?

No...this is the world of customers. India is the second largest cell phone market in the world and growing at a rate of more than 20% every year. If India stops Chinese phone manufacturers there are other players that will be more than willing to supply to Indian consumers. As far as I know there are lot of Chinese manufacturers that are setting up or planning to set up their plants in India

Mate 9

P9's next iteration, the P10, will use Kirin 970 which will most likely be manufactured using TSMC's 10nm process in 2017.

Huawei needs to adapt its chip to other manufacturer so other phone can enjoy its technology.

Huawei should also take a stake in SMIC where a major expansion is uder way with the construction of a new facility and capacity upgrade of existing plants.

Tell u a little secret, One Plus, which most Chinese have never heard of and some foreigners are crazy about, belongs to the group which also invests OPPO. And the OPPO factory (they don't outsource to Foxconn) manufactures One Plus too.

This is a huge step forward for Huawei!
Way more important than launch of new smart phones.

You are right.
There are a lot of big markets in the world, but it does not mean supply chain is there.

Ultimately, it's the labor, productivity, policy, tariff, etc, that will decide where is the supply chain is.
Chinese companies have assembling lines in a lot of countries, sometimes they build the assembling lines themselves, sometimes they outsource.

However, the supply chain has never moved.
On the contrary, it is being significantly strengthened in East Asia and some parts of ASEAN.

Remember,
when you build a factory, you are not competing with another factory, but with a whole integrated supply chain!

Huge improvement in GPU performance, the biggest change for me is definitely the Mali-G71 MP8. GPU performance was definitely a weakness in previous iterations, but this brings everything into line. I'm very impressed with the pace of SoC development at Hisilicon.

 

[ahojunk]

I have not heard of Gionee before today.

Are they any good?

It used be quite famous in China, now it seems to more focused on overseas market.
