Xiaomi Launches New Xring Chip, Partners with TSMC for Production, Sources Say

The chip will debut in the Xiaomi 18 Fold and is expected to ship 200,000 to 300,000 units, sources said.

  • On Monday, Chinese smartphone maker Xiaomi unveiled the Xring O3 processor, aiming to strengthen its supply chain and reduce dependence on external suppliers like Qualcomm and MediaTek.
  • This launch follows the debut of last year's Xring O1, which surpassed 1 million cumulative shipments, marking Xiaomi's push to join Apple, Samsung Electronics, and Huawei in developing proprietary silicon.
  • TSMC will manufacture the 3nm chip, according to people familiar with the matter; it features a decacore CPU with six "super" cores and four "large" cores, plus an Arm G2-Ultra NX GPU that Xiaomi claims offers 182% faster ray tracing.
  • Scheduled to debut in the Xiaomi 18 Fold next month, the Xring O3 has a shipment target of 200,000 to 300,000 units for the company's upcoming flagship folding phone.
  • Investment in the four-core NPU, which Xiaomi claims delivers 45% faster local AI performance, reflects a broader industry trend as device makers seek to differentiate products amid intensifying premium smartphone competition.
