Xiaomi 15 Series

Very unlikey for Sammy and Intel to catch-up given the quality and culture of these orgs. Both their foundry services really CMI.

PRC fabs on the other hand with enuff poaching/stealing of TW talents and access to asml etc would be able to catch-up.

Totally forgot about CN side, but yeah, any competition would be good.

China needs to come up with their first EUV lithography machine.

Else now domestically is just work arounds on existing older DUV with multiple patterning.

The target is 2026 production.

Estimates put it at almost 15-20 yrs before china is able to come up with a working and production ready EUV, EUV was created by years of research and collab across the globe with ASML.

But I do hope they are wrong, monopoly by ASML/TSMC is bad for consumers, china could help put a huge downward pressure on high end chip prices.

But but but monopoly is good for asml/tsmc share holders

if they put the chip in a mid range phone like Redmi K series, I definitely wouldn't mind giving it a try. the chip seems competent, and having more viable options in the market is definitely a good thing for consumers. though in the end, still TSMC monopoly... really hope samsung fab, or perhaps even in the future intel fab can become competitive again...

Read that trump may add xiaomi to the list of china companies banned from tsmc. So xiaomi probably order as much as possible to lower the per unit development cost and stockpile in case of banned from tsmc.

Inevitable have many chips cannot work at the designed frequency, but fully functional at lower frequency or some cores have defects non functional. Means have chips with lower speed or less cores for mid low end phones.

that would be very unfortunate. but then would be funny if US have that much control over a Taiwanese company.

15S Pro a bit too rich for my taste, but if they put XRING 01 into a more budget friendly model, like Redmi K90 or something, would be interesting to try. still remember i got use their last in-house chip before also. and it wasn't horrible.

For Xiaomi 15 Ultra (I believe Xiaomi 15 is the same), it is 2x physical nano SIM for the tray, and physical SIM 2 slot will be disabled if eSIM is enabled.

for now AI erase, reflection removal, sky, bokeh. I'm using 13T, 15 series might have more features

i read 15 ultra might have photo to video animation coming , not sure when.

IMO its gimmicky, cool for now might get bored later, just 3-5 secs animations. honor using gemini AI, might be free now (read 10 activations daily), in fact as with all AI advanced won't be free forever. i might be wrong so better read the fine prints carefully

China rom has picture to video for the ai dynamic wallpaper. Not sure if global rom has this.

Just discovered that all xiaomi 15 series phones have 6 years of software support. Originally only 5 years when it was launched last year, extended to 6 years with the launch of 15 ultra.
