Qualcomm applications for license to cooperate with Huawei

Huawei, the company that felt the greatest tension between the US and China, has lost its trading partners in the US due to this tension. One of the partners of the company that has been fired from the business is one of the first companies that come to mind when it comes to mobile processor. Qualcomm had happened.

Qualcomm, known for its Snapdragon SoCs, is committed to supplying chipsets to Huawei. He managed to get a license. According to new information, this license that the company has acquired has some limitations.

Qualcomm’s licensing for 4G chips means that from now on we can see Snapdragon processors on mid-range Huawei devices. Of course, we can also say that Qualcomm still has the option of licensing the 5G chips.
