The Xring 01 is tipped to be based on an ARM blueprint, which is to say that it is not using custom Xiaomi cores. Manufacturing is reportedly being taken care of by TSMC.

The XRing 01 isn’t a complete chip yet. CPU and GPU aside, Xiaomi will need to sort its own modem, ISP, NPU and every other silicon bit Qualcomm currently feeds it.

What makes it even better is that Xiaomi isn't even likely to use its XRING 01 in top-end flagships. So if an upper-midrange device could get the new chip without a price increase, everyone is happy.

For graphics, Xiaomi uses the Imagination IMG DXT72 GPU, which has a clock speed of 1.3GHz. Early indications are that the Xring performance could be similar to Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 2.

However, Geekerwan speculates that the Xring O1’s GPU is less efficient because of the lack of SLC. Another interesting aspect of the Xring O1 is how Xiaomi has customized some of its components.
