'Huawei's latest Pura 70 series smartphones feature the advanced Kirin 9010 processor, showcasing China's growing prowess in semiconductor manufacturing despite ongoing US sanctions.
The Kirin 9010 is a refined version of the Kirin 9000s, previously found in the Mate 60 Pro. This development highlights Huawei's resilience in sustaining chip production amidst escalating technology export restrictions imposed by the US.
The Mate's successful debut in August sparked a surge in Huawei's popularity, fueled by its ability to overcome manufacturing hurdles. The Pura 70 series also enjoyed rapid sell-outs, demonstrating the company's continued strength in the market.
However, US officials remain wary of China's semiconductor ambitions and are exploring additional sanctions to curb the country's progress in this critical sector. These measures aim to isolate Huawei and hinder China's efforts to establish itself as a global semiconductor powerhouse.'
