Xiaomi is a 13-year-old technology company whose mobile phone products are known for their cost-effectiveness, but there has been no breakthrough in the field of chips. 10 years ago, Xiaomi had the idea of independent research and development of processors, but due to various reasons, Xiaomi's SoC surging chip has not made substantial progress, which also makes Xiaomi unable to compete with Apple, Samsung and other giants in the global mobile phone market, let alone realize its dream of being among the top three in the world.
Xiaomi's chip road is not easy, on the one hand, because Xiaomi's own strategy is not firm enough, there is no spirit of daring to take risks and innovation, and on the other hand, because the capital behind Xiaomi is not generous enough to invest in chips, and Xiaomi is not given enough time and space to explore and try. Xiaomi always uses its youth as an excuse to hope that the outside world can give tolerance and understanding, but in fact, Xiaomi has missed a lot of opportunities, such as Tesla and BYD, in the field of new energy vehicles, they are all starting from scratch, experiencing countless difficulties and setbacks, and finally becoming the industry leader.
If Xiaomi wants to realize its dreams, it must face up to the two biggest problems of chips and systems, without its own chips and systems, Xiaomi will not be able to control its own destiny and provide a better user experience. Chips are the core of the high-tech field, which requires great patience and investment, and it is necessary to establish unshakable technical barriers, rather than focusing only on the competition for capital and traffic. If Xiaomi can't make a breakthrough in chips, it will be suppressed by the technological advantages of other manufacturers, and eventually lose its advantage and voice in the market.
It is said that Xiaomi's SoC surging chip has finally made new progress, and will use TSMC's five-nanometer process, with performance close to the first generation of the Snapdragon 8 series, and is expected to be launched on the market in 2024, which far exceeds the Kirin 9000 S, Xiaomi seems to finally see a glimmer of hope. But does this mean that Xiaomi can challenge Huawei? Although Huawei has been sanctioned by the United States, it still has deep accumulation and innovation capabilities in the field of chips, and Xiaomi still has a long way to go if it wants to compete with Huawei in chips.
Xiaomi's chip road is not over yet, it has just begun, Xiaomi needs more courage and determination, more support and cooperation, more innovation and breakthroughs, in order to create a sharp sword for the country, but also to provide consumers with more choices and value. Xiaomi's surging chips can challenge Huawei, let's wait and see.
