The capitalist west hoisted with their own sanctions petard.
Are the drivers open or is it a dystopian GPL breaking nightmare like MediaTek trash? Is the bootloader unlocked or possible to unlock?
If answer to any of those is negative, FUCK XIAOMI AND THEIR CPU.
Y’all should stop buying slop hardware just because it was made in China.
I actually have a Xiaomi phone but I run LineageOS on it. If that option didn’t exist, I wouldn’t hsve bought Xiaomi. Simple as
Sanction lovers in ruins
3nm.
They achieved parity with the west already. They made a decade worth of technological jump in less than a year.
This isn’t even the end of the road, expect this to just be them waving at us as they pass our stop without even slowing down and speed ahead to way more advanced technology than anything the west has.
Xiaomi isn’t the foundry. No way they leapfrogged SMIC. This is either TSMC or SMIC
I don’t think thats true.
In house chip design is not the same as coming from chinese foundries. As far as I can tell these are still coming from TSMC. SMIC seems to be coming out with 5nm chips this year
I wrote about this here, China catching up to the west is itself an indication that it is advancing at a faster pace.

looking forward to the asianometry video on this
edit: According to https://technode.com/2025/05/19/xiaomi-unveils-self-developed-xuanjie-o1-chip-using-3nm-process/ this is built on TSMC’s 3nm prcess
It’s always easier to do stuff the second time around when you already know what the rough approach is even if you don’t know the details.
China stays winning
Wow, that’s almost SOTA transistor size! I wonder what the performance will be?
It’s parity with TSMC so without counting the chip packaging R&D --that China had done way more of than the west-- it should be in the same range of performance as the best cutting-edge the west has.
TSMC is currently manufacturing 2nm I believe. But in terms of currently available chips, it’s parity. Chinese chips have had great performance compared to similar specced western chips, so I have high hopes
Is this parity with TSMC
These are TSMC chips. SMIC is at 5nm
