Xiaomi has a extensive range of products they have a lot to do with the words "smart." Around here we usually talk about that way of extending their roots to other types of markets where they believe that their way of understanding the sale of all kinds of items can have a place and for what they have been famous, that excellent value for money that usually prevails in them.
Another great way to stay in the mobile phone market for a long time is by making your own chips. It is today when Xiaomi has confirmed on Weibo which will announce its first mobile chip which it has called "Pinecone". It will be on February 28 in Beijing when we have the appearance of the first SoC of this manufacturer, after several leaks in recent weeks.
The funny thing is that he chose that city, instead of going through the Mobile World Congress to take more attention, although surely it will not be harmed by knowing that the presentation of its own chip will take part of the attention for those days when we will be overwhelmed by news from the MWC.
Little else has been mentioned about this homemade chip which has been called "Pinecone." Although it would possibly be the Mi 5c, or "Meri", the first Xiaomi device to incorporate this chip. The results seen in the Geekbench benchmarking tool suggest that the phone is characterized by an octa-core processor, 3 GB of RAM and runs on Android 7.1.1.
The peculiar thing about the Xiaomi chip is that it has not been a top secret of state, since the same project has been underway for two years. It was precisely from Pinecone Electronics that it was acquired by Xiaomi from the chip manufacturer Leadcore. Xiaomi will be able to take advantage of cellular radio technology for its own chips, apart from keeping costs lower in the long term.
It is necessary to clarify that still it will take a bit until we know how good a Pinecone chip can be.
