xiaomi is manufacturing processors!!

   
                           According to a report from "The Wall Street Journal", Chinese smartphone manufacturer Xiaomi is looking to join the line of big companies as like  Apple, Samsung, and Huawei by developing its own smartphone chips.
                          
                           The Xiaomi Pinecone processor announcement eevnt will be held in Beijing National convection centre. 

                              The report sayss the move is part of "aspirations to join the top tier" of smartphone manufacturers and an attempt to stand out from the slew of other OEMs.

                             For now, Xiaomi's processor is apparently called "Pinecone," and it will be released "within a month" according to the report. This might be talking about the processor of the Xiaomi Mi 6, which, if Xiaomi keeps to the usual yearly release cycle, should be out sometime in March. Xiaomi's chip design division isn't coming from nowhere—using a shell company called "Beijing Pinecone Electronics," Xiaomi paid $15 million to acquire mobile processor technology from Datang subsidiary Leadcore Technolgy Ltd.

                            Notably ,this is not the first time Xiaomi will be trying its hands on different processor other than Qualcomm or Media Tek as the company few years ago launched the Redmi 2A with a Leadcore chipset based on preliminary leaks,the chinese company is rumoured lauch two processor models-the Pinecone 1 with octa-core Cotex -A53 CPU, and the Pinecone 2 with four Cortex A73 cores and four Cortex-A53 cores.

                           There's no clarity on the GPU,but the chip is expected to be made in 10nm process.

                          "The "Pinecone processor" is widely expected to debut on the company's Mi5c smart phones that has beem is all set to take on other leading companies". said The Wall street Journal.

                         Today, every Android OEM that isn't Samsung or Huawei relies on Qualcomm for high-end phone processors. Sometimes Qualcomm drops the ball, like with 2015's better-than-usual Snapdragon 810, and when that happens, most OEMs have no alternative.

                        Today the trending way  in market gets different and the people change minutes to minutes so they need innovation and joy.So leading companies satisfies the customer by releasing the product or upgrading any part of their product.

                        Everyone else is stuck waiting until a later time to get their hands on the new chip, and this wait is apparently so bad that LG is opting to use last year chip, the Snapdragon 821, in its 2017 flagship.

                        Xiaomi has struggled to launch a smartphone in the West. It keeps making moves toward doing so, like opening a US-based store, but an actual smartphone has yet to make its way to North America or Europe. 

                       Xiaomi would no doubt have to get involved in the smartphone patent wars if it comes here, and designing its own chips probably opens it to even more potential patent lawsuits. 

                       The company has fallen to fifth place in its home market of China, and it recently lost Hugo Barra, the head of its international division. It did just release innovative Xiaomi Mi Mix, which rearranged the standard layout of a smartphone to maximize screen space.

 Xiaomi isn't coming to Mobile World Congress, so if we're going to hear about this SoC line, it would have to be at a separate press conference.
