With the approach of the 28 February, the date of the next press conference, Xiaomi released a trailer for its proprietary SoC Pinecone. This processor marks a turning point in the whole of Xiaomi's production activities and it is fair to remember that this company was born only 7 years ago, making such rapid progress since then that it was able to do more than what Samsung did in the same time frame. also securing a place among the world leaders in mobile technology. From February 28, therefore, Xiaomi will also join giants such as Huawei, Apple and Samsung among the proprietary chip manufacturers.
The trailer, very simple but very impressive, with a slightly dark, minimalist atmosphere, starts with a very significant sentence:
There are too many impossible and unknown things in the world, to think about everything you are about to face, my impulse pushing me
To testify to this "challenge" is Wang Feng, twice the winner of the World Memory Championships, one of the most powerful minds in the world. The video brings incredible business: in front of him are placed two screens that alternatively reproduce a group of six digits, for a total of well 100 groups. Wang Feng can store all the figures reproduced correctly in their original order on a glass panel, with background music that emphasizes the gradualness of the challenge. Really great!
It also seems that Xiaomi will, in the future, promote the various Pinecone chips, will engage celebrities from super talent. Although these characters are clearly a reference point for Chinese audiences, we are curious about who will be the next testimonial.
For those who want to watch the video, here is:
The main features of the Pinecone, according to what leaked from the rumors of the last few weeks, should include an octacore Cortex-A53 architecture, integrated baseband, which supports Cat.6. Performance should be equivalent to mid-range chips such as Snapdragon 625 and Helio X25 or X30. There are also some alleged tests on Geekbench, which we told you about in this item.
We hope this new processor will be able to bring Xiaomi to new successes and do not forget to follow us through our social channels so you will not miss all the latest news!
