Mobile phones are an indispensable electronic product for us now, but mobile phones also rely on chips to operate. Now all 5G chips are scrapped, which has a great impact on major mobile phones using 5G chips. influence.
Qualcomm 5G chips manufactured by Samsung's 7nm process have yield problems, causing all products to be scrapped. Samsung's own processors have also been similarly affected. Insiders said that if the problem is not resolved as soon as possible, it is likely to affect the 5G mobile phone layout of domestic mobile phone manufacturers such as Xiaomi, OPPO, and vivo.
Since models using this processor can cost around 3,000 yuan, they are favored by Xiaomi, OPPO, vivo and other manufacturers. If Qualcomm's 5G chips are difficult to produce, it will have a huge impact on domestic mobile phone manufacturers' 5G layout.
Anyone who has a certain understanding of the new product manufacturing industry knows that currently only two manufacturers, TSMC and Samsung, have 7nm process production technology.
Qualcomm is not willing to put its eggs in one basket, and TSMC’s technology is obviously more mature than Samsung’s. Therefore, both Samsung and TSMC are Qualcomm's foundry manufacturers. The scrapping of 5G chips actually has little impact on Qualcomm and the entire mobile phone market. Therefore, as an ordinary user, you can rest assured that there will be no problem in replacing a 5G mobile phone.
Samsung is a Qualcomm chip foundry, and Qualcomm’s 5G single-chip 7250 is a product that Qualcomm has not yet released. It is reported that Qualcomm Snapdragon SDM7250 5G processor was originally planned to be launched in early 2020, becoming the biggest trump card for Qualcomm and Huawei in the competition for 5G.
Samsung China stated that it has confirmed that the rumors are rumors without any factual basis. Qualcomm also said that the rumors were false.
