Xiaomi has officially unveiled the Xring 01, its first-ever in-house mobile chipset, marking a major leap into the world of custom silicon. Engineered on TSMC’s 3nm N3E process, the XRING 01 features a 10-core CPU, 16-core GPU, and a 6-core NPU, backed by a shared 16MB cache for enhanced efficiency.
Under the hood, the CPU configuration includes two high-performance Arm Cortex-X925 cores clocked at 3.9GHz, six Cortex-A725 cores reaching up to 3.4GHz, and two Cortex-A520 efficiency cores running at 1.8GHz. For graphics, Xiaomi has gone with the Immortalis-G925 MC16 GPU.
According to Xiaomi, the chip scored around 30 million points on AnTuTu, a figure that (if true) sets an aggressive performance benchmark. It also comes with an external modem, rounding off a highly ambitious debut into mobile processor design.
Xiaomi has revealed that the Xring 01 chipset will make its debut in the Xiaomi 15S Pro smartphone and the Xiaomi Pad 7 Ultra — both currently exclusive to the Chinese market. Whether these devices (or the chip itself) will make a global appearance remains to be seen, leaving international fans waiting in the wings.
