- Xiaomi has revealed that the upcoming chipset is 3 Nm
- That should compete with the best smartphone chipsets from Apple and Qualcomm
- This chipset will be completely unveiled on Thursday
At the moment, the biggest names are in smartphonchipsets AppleQualcomm and MediaTek, and these are the only three companies that have made smartphoneecchipsets so far using a 3 Nm (nanometer) process. But now Xiaomi is about to announce a 3NM chipset this week.
Post Weibo (Via Technode), The CEO of Xiaomi has revealed that the Xring 01 chipset will be completely unveiled on Thursday and that it – exciting – uses a 3 Nm process.
As a general rule, the smaller the number there, the more powerful the chipset is, and 3 Nm should compete with the A18 Pro in competition with the A18 Pro iPhone 16 Pro series and the Snapdragon 8 Elite The Samsung Galaxy S25 line. In short, this should be an extremely powerful chipset.
Of course we will not know exactly how powerful until we have put it to the test, but early benchmarks spotted by Leaker @Universice Suppose it could give the above chipsets a run for their money.
An affordable alternative
That could be a big problem, because it could enable Xiaomi to equip his telephones more affordably with top-end chipsets and there is a chance that those savings can be passed on to consumers.
In the unlikely case that the Xring 01 performs better than the Snapdragon 8 -Elite, it would also be the most powerful chipset that is available for Android telephones -and if Xiaomi keeps it exclusively for its own handsets, the company can give a real lead.
Of course, even if it is really as powerful as suggesting benchmarks, it can have problems, as are not overly energy efficient. But anyway, Xiaomi is the first Chinese company of the mainland that hits the 3nm benchmark, is still a remarkable moment for smartphones.
We must have a clearer idea of the realities on Thursday, when Xiaomi fully describes the chipset and an even clearer idea as soon as we have tested it ourselves.
