Doesn't MediaTek provide complete SoC alternatives to everything that Qualcomm offers? It seems like all the low-end Chinese Android brands are already using MediaTek chips.
- sigmar 9y agoThat's true. But if ZTE puts MediaTek in all their phones, they will become known as a low-end phone manufacturer with poor performance, selective lte band support, and non-existent updates.
- bitL 9y agoThat could change. They can invest into kernel engineers as well.
- jdietrich 9y agoMediaTek have some highly competitive entry-level and mid-range SoC options, but their high-end offerings are much weaker. Huawei-owned HiSilicon do have some very good high-end SoCs. It's plausible that ZTE could partner with a Chinese semi company to produce a competitive high-end SoC.
