With Xring 01 Xiaomi gets into footsteps of Apple, Google and Samsung
Xiaomi, at its 15th anniversary event, announced its first-ever in-house mobile chipset — the Xring 01. For years, companies like Apple, Google, and Samsung have been developing their own processors, trying to gain more control over performance, software optimisation, and their product ecosystems. Apple's custom chips are widely regarded as the industry benchmark, while Google and Samsung's attempts have seen mixed results. Now, Xiaomi is joining this club, and its first effort is bold. The Xring 01 is built using advanced 3nm technology and already powers two new flagship Xring 01 chip is manufactured by TSMC — the same foundry behind Apple's processors — using its second-generation 3nm process. This should allow for solid performance along with good battery efficiency. The Xring 01 has a 10-core CPU and a 16-core Immortalis-G925 GPU, making it one of the most powerful mobile chipsets right now, at least on paper. Xiaomi has taken a different approach by using more cores than usual, aiming for top-tier performance. In simpler terms, expect it to handle heavy apps and games more smoothly, while also being far, two devices use the new chip — the Xiaomi 15s Pro smartphone and the Xiaomi Pad 7 Ultra tablet. Sadly, both of the devices have only launched in China, at least for now. Global availability, including in India, is still The Xiaomi 15s Pro is a premium smartphone with a 2K resolution OLED display, a 50-megapixel triple camera system, and a large 6,100mAh battery. Other key highlights include 90W fast wired charging, 50W wireless charging, IP68 dust and water resistance, and Xiaomi's own HyperOS 2 based on Android 15. Under the hood, the Xring 01 powers everything, paired with fast 16GB LPDDR5T RAM and up to 1TB UFS 4.1 Xiaomi Pad 7 Ultra, on the other hand, is a 14-inch tablet designed for entertainment and productivity. With ultra-thin bezels and a slim profile, it's clearly aimed at high-end tablets like Apple's iPad Pro and Samsung's Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra. It comes with a massive 12,000mAh battery, up to 16GB RAM and 512GB of storage — again, all powered by the Xring the launch of the Xring 01, Xiaomi is clearly thinking long-term. Having its own chip gives the company greater control over how its devices perform and interact with each other. Apple's long-time success with its A-series and M-series chips is proof of how powerful that strategy can be. While Google's Tensor and Samsung's Exynos chips haven't always lived up to expectations, Xiaomi's Xring 01 seems like a serious first attempt.
