- Huawei launched the Mate XT 2 tri-fold phone in Guangzhou, featuring the Kirin 9050 Pro — the first chip built on its LogicFolding technology.
- The new Lingxi-architecture CPU delivers a 42% overall performance gain (24% single-core, 52% multi-core) with dynamic core scheduling; the new Maleoon GPU adds hardware ray tracing and a 142% rendering boost.
- The DaVinci NPU has a total parameter scale of 30B, claimed to support on-device multimodal MoE LLM deployment; the chip also integrates a new Balong modem with satellite-terrestrial communication.
- The poster's deeper point: five years into US sanctions, Huawei's self-reliant chip path may finally show substantive, paradigmatic divergence from the TSMC lithography ecosystem.
