were the first smartphones to be powered by an application processor made using the 3nm process node. No other smartphones other than thewill sport a 3nm AP until the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 is used in a new Xiaomi phone to be released next month. Huawei currently offers a couple of flagship phones that are both using 7nm processors two generations old: the Mate 60 and the Pura 70 line .
When Huawei shocked the wireless world with the homegrown Kirin 9000s 5G AP powering the Mate 60 line, critics predicted that this would be as cutting-edge as Huawei gets. Chinese foundries don't have access to extreme ultraviolet lithography machines which etch circuitry patterns on silicon wafers. As a result, even the country's largest foundry, SMIC, was limited to using its 7nm node for the new Kirin chipset.
Back when the U.S. first changed the export rule preventing Huawei from obtaining 5G chips, Huawei had just packed 2020's Mate 40 series with the 5nm Kirin 9000 5G AP built by TSMC. At one time, Huawei was TSMC's second-largest customer after Huawei. The U.S. might have thought that its sanctions were the end of Huawei but the company has managed to fight back.
