Huawei will be able to bypass US sanctions and get platforms with 5G. The company will use the production of SMIC, but the technical process is not the most modern
Huawei has long been under US sanctions that, among other things, prevent the manufacturer from getting modern SoCs with 5G modems. However, Huawei may solve this problem by the end of this year.
According to Reuters, Huawei plans to launch 5G platforms in-house. More specifically, Huawei will use its know-how and technology to develop SoCs, and they will be produced by the Chinese company SMIC.
However, it is not clear which platforms are involved. Considering that SMIC simply does not have the technologies for the production of the most advanced platforms according to the 3, 4, 5 nm standards, which are needed primarily by top SoCs, most likely we are talking about budget or mid-budget single-chip systems.
There is evidence that Huawei will use the SMIC N + 1 process technology for the production of platforms. The company itself does not talk about nanometers, but notes that certain characteristics are comparable to 7nm processes from competitors, however, SMIC notes that N + 1 cannot be called a seven-nm process.

Only 1.7 liters, but Core i9 and RTX 4070 Laptop. Thunderobot Mix Mini introduced starting at $750
Thunderobot has fully introduced the Mix Mini gaming mini-PC. The device is extremely interesting, since a 14-core Core i9 and RTX 4070 Laptop fit into a body with a volume of only 1.7 liters.
Of course, there are simpler versions. The base one has a Core i7-13620H, RTX 4060 Laptop, 16 GB of RAM and no storage. For such a PC they ask for $750. The most expensive one will be the one with Core i9-13900H, RTX 4070 Laptop, 32 GB of RAM and a 1 TB SSD. For such a PC you will have to pay 1230 dollars.
From the rest we can highlight Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3, HDMI 2.1 (x2), USB-C (x2), USB 3.2 (x2), RJ45 and dimensions 260 x 165 x 42 mm.
Hisense has talked about its new Vidda New X gaming TVs.
There are no details yet, but it is known that the line will include four models with diagonals of 55, 65, 75 and 85 inches. All new products will receive 4K UHD screens with a frequency of 144 Hz, SoC MediaTek MT9653, 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of flash memory.
At the same time, the prices for the devices will be very low: 381, 483, 674 and 879 dollars in increasing order of diagonal.

Using the Honor V Purse “smartphone-clutch” as a clutch can be potentially very expensive. Prices for device repairs revealed
The “smartphone-clutch” Honor V Purse, despite its positioning as a fashion accessory and form factor, is priced at not the most $825 for the basic version. Considering the same form factor and positioning, it would be useful to know that screen repair will cost the owner almost 70% of the cost of the smartphone.
As it became known, Honor will charge about $558 for screen repair. This is the price in China at the current exchange rate. It will also be very expensive to replace the motherboard: $274 or $342 depending on the configuration. Of course, this includes the platform, RAM and flash memory, since all this is soldered on the board.
Everything else will not be very expensive to replace:
- Battery (main) – 159 yuan ($22)
- Battery (auxiliary) – 159 yuan ($22)
- Back cover – 239 yuan ($33)
- Front camera (main) – 139 yuan ($19)
- Rear camera (wide angle) – 149 yuan ($20)
- Rear camera (main) – 379 yuan ($52)
Considering that this is a “smartphone-clutch”, it will be much easier to damage the screen of such a device than a regular smartphone that is constantly carried in a pocket or bag. And the prices for repairs indicate that it is better to be careful.
