RISC-V is a better fit for mobile devices. But Huawei does produce network hardware that might benefit from a good POWER-based platform.

- Symmetry 7y agoWhat aspects of RISC-V do you think make it a better fit?
- als0 7y agoI'd also like to know, but I imagine that the compressed version of the RISC-V ISA would be a significant factor as code density is important for a phone.
- Iwan-Zotow 7y agoreally? for last three-four years phones have ca 2-3-4Gb of RAM and 32-64Gb of storage nad if are talking about RISC-V phone, it would be produced in no early than 2020, so not sure code density is a significant factor I don't think
- monocasa 7y agoCode density matters for I$ thrashing reasons, but it's probably not a significant enough factor to overtake the market supremacy of ARM.
