The US-China chip war is heating up after Huawei launched a
new phone featuring technology that Washington was hoping
to keep out of China's reach.

Last month, Huawei released the Mate 60 Pro phone without
providing much detail on the chips used for the device.
But Ottawa-based TechInsights, a research organization
specializing in semiconductors, made a surprising discovery
after taking the phone apart for analysis — the device was
run on a Chinese-made Kirin 9000s 7-nanometer processor.
The scale of the chip is essential, as smaller-scale chips
can be packed with more elements, thus making them faster
and more powerful. The chip also appears to be 5G capable.

. . .

There's nothing the USA/West can make that China can't steal.

A 7nm chip is kinda a big deal for China.

Means they can conceal a lot MORE spy/evil-ware than ever.

Now, supposedly, we're still ahead. Intel is gearing up
for 2-nm and even 1.8-nm parts in 2024 and 4-nm should be
out about now.

But China has surely stolen all that too.
