Bloomberg reports that Xiaomi is allegedly in the process of developing its own chips to reduce reliance on Qualcomm and MediaTek, with production expected to commence in 2025. It remains uncertain whether Xiaomi will outsource production to any specific manufacturer, but TSMC could be a likely candidate despite facing pressure from the US government regarding chip production for Chinese companies. Developing in-house chips may pose challenges, as even industry giants like Samsung still rely on Qualcomm for certain chipsets. Source: Bloomberg.
TLDR: Xiaomi is working on developing its own chips to reduce dependency on Qualcomm and MediaTek, with production set to start in 2025. Outsourcing to TSMC is a possibility, despite US government pressure, but developing in-house chips may prove to be a challenging endeavor.
