NOKIA ADDS BROADCOM TO THE LIST OF CUSTOM-MADE 5G CHIPS SUPPLIERS

Nokia has just signed a contract with Broadcom that will bring custom-made 5G chipsets for the smartphone brand. It is the third major company to sign such a deal after Intel and Marvell back in March. Through this contract, the Finnish company will be able to expand its presence in the market and increase shipments. The brand expects 35% of all 5G products to be equipped with this custom-made 5G chip by the end of 2020. Broadcom will be busy in the coming months to ensure Nokia’s demand.

Xiaomi working on a phone with 16GB of RAM



There are only a couple of phones that can be configured with 16GB of RAM, This phones are Huawei, Samsung and Iphone. There isn’t a Xiaomi among them. Not yet anyway,Don't get me wrong I'm a fan of Xiaomi, I even wanted one of my son to buy Xiaomi last 2 weeks but He is in love with infinix. I guest he does not know much about phones.The leakster Digital Chat Station teases that (Xiaomi) the company is working on just such a model.

Earlier this year there were murmurs that the new Mi Mix model will have 16GB, but those quieted down. The Mix does make sense though, as that is Xiaomi’s halo series. Alternatively, the Mi 10 Pro was also rumored to have a 16GB option, but that never materialized.

12GB has become pretty common, it’s even available on some fairly affordable models. Samsung started manufacture of 12GB LPDDR5 in July last year, mass production of 16GB packages started in February 2020. However, Xiaomi partnered with rival Micron to source the LPDDR5 chips for the Mi 10 phones. Micron stated that it expects 16GB phones in the second half of this year.

Anyway, we haven’t heard any solid info on when the next Xiaomi Mix might launch, even the Mi Mix Alpha hasn’t launched yet or any other Xiaomi worthy of 16 GB RAM.
