US Finds No Evidence Huawei Can Mass Produce Advanced Phone Chips at Scale
TL;DR Summary
The US Commerce Secretary, Gina Raimondo, stated that there is no evidence that Huawei can mass produce smartphones with advanced semiconductors, contradicting recent reports suggesting the company's return to the 5G smartphone industry. Huawei's launch of the Mate 60 Pro, powered by a 7nm system-on-chip (SoC) produced by China's SMIC, seemed to indicate progress in China's semiconductor industry. However, Raimondo's comments highlight the impact of US sanctions on Huawei's access to high-end chipmaking tools. The future of China's advanced chipmaking industry is further uncertain as Oppo, another Chinese smartphone giant, disbanded its semiconductor unit.
