Huawei has not yet transitioned to SMIC's 5nm process due to reliance on older 7nm technology and export restrictions on advanced EUV equipment, which delays the development of next-generation chipsets and widens the technological gap with global competitors.
Samsung has reportedly made a big improvement to its 5nm chip manufacturing process, which could benefit the Tensor G2 SoC in the Pixel Fold and the Exynos W920 in the Galaxy Watch 6. The exact changes to the manufacturing process are unknown, but the tipster claims that the nodes themselves are becoming better. Samsung's 5nm process has been considered inferior to TSMC's, leading to overheating issues in previous chipsets. The latest improvement could result in longer battery life for the Galaxy Watch 6.
