Huawei‘s HiSilicon division is back in action. They’re known for their Kirin chips and they’re doing well again. According to the latest Canalys data, they shipped a lot, 8 million Kirin chips, in the first quarter of 2024, making $6 billion. Meanwhile, Google only sold 2 million of its chips, earning $2 billion.
On the other hand, Samsung sold a lot, 18 million units, earning $9 billion, while MediaTek shipped a huge 114 million units, though they made less money, $23 billion. Qualcomm is not far behind, selling 75 million chips and earning $37 billion this quarter.
