Huawei, one of the top smartphone vendors by volume, is apparently looking for a second source for the manufacture of its custom-designed Kirin applications processors, according to DIGITIMES.
DIGITIMES says that Huawei is looking to diversify from its current manufacturing partner, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, "to ensure sufficient production capacity for its 7nm solutions."
This come as TSMC has reportedly won back chip orders from wireless chip giant Qualcomm. If TSMC is handling future chip production for both Qualcomm and Apple -- the two highest-volume producers of chips that go into high-end smartphones -- then Huawei risks being deprioritized due to its relatively low volume of high-end smartphone shipments.
