Huawei's next smartphones may support 5G, here's how they are going to do it - SoyaCincau

have become a tough sell globally due to the ongoing sanctions imposed by the US government. Besides not having official access to Google Mobile Services, the Chinese smartphone maker couldn’t produce new smartphones with 5G support as it could only procure Qualcomm Snapdragon chips without 5G. That might soon change according to a report by Reuters citing research firms who are close to the matter.

Reuters reported that Huawei might make a return to making 5G smartphones by the end of this year with help from China’s Semiconductor Manufacturing International Co . Quoting three third-party technology research firms covering China’s smartphone sector, the report says Huawei should be able to procure 5G chips domestically using its own advances in semiconductor design along with SMIC’s chipmaking. This could mean pairing a 5G modem with a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor.

It also added that the sources spoke on anonymity because of confidentiality agreements with clients. Reuters approached both Huawei and SMIC on the matter, but they didn’t respond to comment. It is reported that 5G versions of their flagships could be launched sometime in early 2024. The report states that Huawei had made breakthroughs in electronic design automation tools for chips produced at and above 14nm. When used with SMIC’s N+1 manufacturing process, they believe that Huawei could make chips that are equivalent of 7nm. However, the effort is expected to be costly as the forecast yield rate is said to be less than 50%.

While it is interesting to see the potential of Huawei smartphones with 5G support out of the box, having a separate 5G chip could mean lower power efficiency compared to a smartphone that uses a 5G integrated SoC.
