Huawei may return to the chip market as early as this year
Huawei may return to the chip business, which it once designed in-house through its subsidiary HiSilicon and, often, TSMC’s foundries. The past USA ban has changed everything, and HiSilicon almost doesn’t make any more chips.
In fact, Huawei would be ready to start mass production of chips made with a 12 and 14 nanometer production process. The return to activity is good, the fact that these are not particularly advanced chips is less good. TSMC, which produces chips for Qualcomm and Apple, is already working on 4 nanometers, the technology Huawei would be working on today that was advanced 6 or 7 years ago.
A 12 or 14 nanometer chip is not expendable on modern top of the range, but to tell the truth, Huawei has no problem finding chips for its phones.
For at least two reasons. The first would be to keep HiSilicon, a company that designs chips that Huawei holds control of, alive. The second is that if it is true that 12 or 14-nanometer chips in 2023 are good, perhaps, for some very cheap smartphones it is also true that for certain applications they are still fine for smart appliances or some automotive applications.
Meanwhile for the wearables on which Huawei continues to be committed. By doing so, Huawei would keep HiSilicon alive and save compared to orders from an external supplier, and at a time when numbers have contracted heavily due to sales that are no longer those of the golden age, every penny saved is precious. Who knows that after many rumors Huawei will finally not be able to return to the chip market, and who knows that part of the merit may not be due to the recent patent movements with Oppo and Samsung .
The FutureNet World 2025 event just completed in London, bringing together over 700 industry leaders to talk about the future of network technology. The yearly gathering attracts top executives from global telecom companies, standards organizations, and technology suppliers. For the first time ever, the event created a special “Intelligent Network Best Practice Award” – and Huawei won the prize.
The company stands for its innovative work on smart, self-managing networks. Huawei’s winning technology helps telecom companies run their networks more intelligently with less human intervention. Their solution includes smart digital assistants designed for network maintenance, improving customer experience, and business operations.
These digital helpers fall into two main categories – the Mate series and the Spirit series. The technology has already been rolled out in many countries, showing impressive results across different types of networks including IP, optical, wireless, and core systems. Speaking at the event, Wang Shaosen, who leads Huawei’s smart network solutions, shared the company’s vision: “We’re committed to developing technology that makes networks smarter.
This will help telecom companies succeed with advanced 5G services and prepare for the future of 6G connectivity.
