Huawei is out, and 5G Kirin chips are finally used up

Huawei is out, and 5G Kirin chips are finally used up: As we all know, Huawei’s product strength has been significantly diminished over the past several years as a result of the US imperialist prohibition. The absence of 5G and Kirin chip blessings and the impossibility of the gods arriving are the causes.

You might not be aware that Huawei had given TSMC the task of working extra hours to create a significant quantity of Kirin 9000 processors before to the ban’s implementation. Based on this, the Kirin 9000 CPU can continue be utilised on the P50 series and the folding screen XS series even if fresh Kirin chips are unable to be created in the future. This just about enabled Huawei to covertly maintain a wave of life.

Outgoing Huawei, 5G Kirin processors

The most recent report indicates that Kirin chips’ current situation is not very promising after two years of usage. A respected research organisation, Counterpoint Research, has reported the third-quarter worldwide smartphone AP (application processor) market.

According to the report, MediaTek is in first place with a 35% share, down from 38% in the previous quarter. Qualcomm is in second place, with a share that increased from 29 to 31 percent over the previous quarter.

Apple, Ziguang Zhanrui, and Samsung followed closely behind, with market shares of 16%, 10%, and 7% respectively.

Huawei HiSilicon is ranked last.

The graph shows that Huawei HiSilicon still held a 3% share in the second quarter of 2021 before falling to zero. Learn more: Five months after its introduction, the price of the Xiaomi 12GB+256GB+5160mAh reduced to $203.

In the first quarter of 2022, it will reach 1%, the second quarter, 0.4%, and the third quarter, virtually 0%. This information demonstrates that Huawei’s 10 million Kirin mobile phone chip stock has been totally depleted. Finally, the Kirin chips in Songshan Lake’s bottom have been uncovered.

The fact that Kirin chips continued to be sold for two years until their market share decreased to zero must be acknowledged. The Huawei Mate X2 was removed from the shelves at JD.com and Huawei at the conclusion of the previous month. It’s really perplexing that the first-generation magic phone has suddenly become hip.

Several online users conjectured at the time that the supply of Kirin processors may have run out.

However, just after the Mate X2 was removed from the shelves, Huawei immediately launched the Mate X2 official flip.

The price of this official flip phone is 17,499 yuan, which is only 500 yuan cheaper than the listing price of 17,999 yuan at that time.

The official reconditioned phone is still so pricey two years after it was first released, which leads many internet users to label it dishonest. There is also Huawei’s first official Mate 40 Pro refurbishing that meets the same demise as this. But as an official upgrade, Mate 40 Pro’s price cut is more “stingy” than Mate X2’s. The Mate 40 Pro’s 8GB+256GB variant costs 6699 yuan, which is only 300 yuan less than the 2020 release price (6999 yuan).

Now it seems that although these two official flip phones are indeed very expensive, they all have one thing in common, that is, they are equipped with the out-of-print Kirin 9000 5G chip.

In the context of Kirin’s market share falling to zero, it is really rare to be able to buy a device equipped with the Kirin 9000 5G chip. It is not difficult to understand that it can be sold at such an expensive price.

Nowadays, Huawei mobile phones on the market employ Qualcomm’s specialized 4G CPUs, with the exception of officially reconditioned phones. Due to this, Huawei, which was formerly in the top tier, is now in a very tough situation.

5G Kirin processors are necessary for Huawei to regain its position as the leader. Yet, based on the existing circumstances, the challenge is still too great. It is completely ridiculous to count on the US emperor to withdraw the prohibition. It would be like asking for tiger skin. Also, relying on the local supply chain to develop and get to the point where it can compete with Qualcomm is quite challenging.

I have to remark that Qilin’s departure is a tragedy since it is expected that in the upcoming time, Huawei’s flagship phones will continue to solely be powered by Qualcomm 4G CPUs.

I genuinely hope that when that time comes, the Kirin chip may be sustained and lead Huawei mobile, so that Huawei will be able to overcome technological boundaries and become independent. cellular devices to the top.
