  • Xiaomi's 15th-anniversary event on May 22 will feature the launch of the XRING 01 chipset, Xiaomi 15s Pro smartphone, Pad 7 Ultra tablet, and YU7 electric SUV.
  • The XRING 01 is Xiaomi's first self-developed mobile chipset, built on a 3nm process, and will debut in the Xiaomi 15s Pro flagship device.
  • Xiaomi has committed 50 billion yuan (approximately $6.9 billion) over ten years to semiconductor R&D, with 13.5 billion yuan already spent since 2021 and over 2,500 employees dedicated to the effort.
