Huawei Launches Mate 90 Smartphones Featuring In-House Chip Amid US Restrictions
Huawei Technologies unveiled its Mate 90 smartphone series featuring the in-house Kirin 9050 Pro chip with innovative LogicFolding architecture, which restructures chip wiring in three dimensions for enhanced performance. The launch follows US restrictions limiting Huawei's access to advanced semiconductor technology, prompting reliance on domestic chipmaking capacity that remains constrained. Huawei also introduced HarmonyOS 7 and adjusted pricing amid rising smartphone costs in China. The Mate 90 series succeeds the Mate 80 line and aims to maintain Huawei's position in the competitive smartphone market.
