Huawei’s New Phone Sports Latest Version of Made-in-China Chip – Yahoo Finance
(Bloomberg) — Huawei Technologies Co.’s latest smartphones carry a version of the advanced made-in-China processor it revealed last year, independent analysis revealed, underscoring the Chinese company’s ability to sustain production of the controversial chip.

The Pura 70 series Huawei unveiled last week sports the Kirin 9010 processor, consultancy TechInsights found in a teardown of the device. That’s a newer version of the Kirin 9000s made by Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp. for the Mate 60 Pro, which alarmed officials in Washington who thought a 7 nanometer chip beyond China’s capabilities.
Huawei has enjoyed a resurgence since the Mate’s August debut, riding a wave of celebration around its ability to realize sophisticated semiconductor manufacturing despite escalating US technology export curbs. US officials are now weighing additional sanctions intended to ringfence the company and China’s semiconductor ambitions more broadly.

TechInsights, which was the first to identify the original 9000s in conjunction with Bloomberg News, said it found “with high confidence” that the Pura contained a Huawei Kirin 9010 fabricated using SMIC’s so-called 7nm N+2 process, an enhanced version of typical 7nm manufacturing.
Formerly known as the P series, the Pura line has traditionally sold on the strength of their camera capabilities. Giving domestic users a fresh option could apply further pressure on the iPhone, which isn’t due for an upgrade until September.
For Huawei, it’s another step toward rebuilding a consumer business devastated by Trump-era sanctions. The company was roughly on par with Apple Inc. in terms of Chinese market share in the first quarter, underscoring the way it’s eroded the iPhone maker’s domestic market share in past months.

Report: iPad event video on Tuesday to last about 35 minutes – 9to5Mac
On Tuesday, May 7, Apple will hold its first product event of the year, ‘Let Loose’. The company is set to introduce new lineup of iPad Pro and iPad Air. The iPad Pro tablets will get OLED displays, a new thinner chassis, and run on the M4 chip. The iPad Air will be updated with the M2 chip, and be offered in a new larger 12.9-inch display size for the first time.
As reported today by Mark Gurman, Apple is set to announce all of this in a brisk video presentation running about 35 minutes in length. This is similar to the runtime of the October ‘Spooky Fast’ event.
Alongside the new iPad Pro and iPad Air lineup, Apple is also expected to unveil new generations of the Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil, the latter featuring a new squeeze gesture with haptic feedback.
The jump to the M4 chip in the iPad Pro will be heralded as signifying Apple’s advantages in on-device artificial intelligence might, as well as incremental bumps to CPU and GPU power. But it seems we will be waiting until WWDC in June to see what kind of AI features Apple will be incorporating into the system, with proactive AI features expected to be a focus of iOS 18.
Atypically, the May 7 event is scheduled for 7 AM Pacific Time, rather than Apple’s usual 10 AM time slot. Apple is believed to be experimenting with the format to see when it can acquire the most eyeballs, and a slightly earlier start time is better for Europe and Asia timezones.
Obviously, stay tuned to 9to5Mac this week as we bring you full coverage of all the announcements. Refreshes for the other iPad models are expected to follow later in the year.
