China's Xiaomi to launch self-developed mobile chip in late May

  • Xiaomi co-founder Lei Jun announced on May 15, 2025, that the company will launch its self-developed smartphone chip XRING 01 by the end of May.
  • This launch follows a decade of Xiaomi's chip development efforts, beginning in 2014 with a shift back to full-scale SoC design after earlier setbacks.
  • The XRING 01 chip uses TSMC’s 4nm fabrication, features a tri-cluster ARM architecture with a 1+3+4 CPU core layout, and targets mid-range smartphones priced around 3,000 to 3,500 yuan.
  • Reports suggest the chip matches 2022’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 performance with a prime core up to 3.2 GHz, and initial production may reach 2 to 3 million units focused on China and Southeast Asia.
  • Xiaomi’s XRING 01 introduction signals renewed ambition to control its hardware ecosystem and to power more premium devices internally, which may shape competition with rivals like Huawei and Apple.
