CXMT Launches Mass Production of LPDDR6, Securing Early Wins with Xiaomi and Chinese Tech Giants

Chinese memory maker CXMT has officially begun mass production of LPDDR6 DRAM, marking the first commercial deployment of the standard globally. The chips, which reach speeds of up to 12.8 Gbps and 16 GB capacity, are initially destined for Xiaomi’s upcoming 18 Fold smartphone. While CXMT outpaced rivals like Samsung and SK hynix in initial availability, its output remains constrained by US trade restrictions and legacy manufacturing equipment, limiting immediate volume to niche, high-end devices.

Galaxy S27 Ultra reportedly sticks with old RAM and storage amid memory crunch

Rumors claim the Galaxy S27 Ultra will skip planned upgrades to LPDDR6 RAM and UFS 5.0 storage due to a global memory shortage, leaving it with older LPDDR5X and UFS 4.0 tech and potentially reserving the new components for limited-edition models; this could affect AI performance, speed, and future-proofing, all while price is expected to stay high (around $1,300).

Galaxy S27 Ultra Could Miss Two High-Speed Upgrades

Two major speed upgrades reportedly won’t reach the Galaxy S27 Ultra (and possibly the S27 Pro): UFS 5.0 storage and LPDDR6 memory. A credible leak says Samsung will not bring UFS 5.0 or LPDDR6 to the flagship lineup next year, with only small quantities produced in limited-edition runs. UFS 5.0 would offer much faster read/write speeds (up to about 10.8 GB/s read and 9.5 GB/s write). It remains unclear whether all S27 models (Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 or Exynos 2700 versions) will skip these upgrades.

iPhone 18 Pro A20 Pro Leaks Point to Faster, Cooler Performance with WMCM Packaging

A leaked motherboard image suggests the iPhone 18 Pro will use Wafer-Level Multi-Chip Module (WMCM) packaging for the A20 Pro, relocating DRAM to the side to spread heat and reduce throttling while maintaining high speed. The A20 Pro is also said to feature LPDDR6 memory with a 96-bit bus and a substantially expanded Neural Engine, boosting bandwidth and on-device AI performance. The WMCM approach could enable more chiplet variants and lower production waste. The leak is tied to a hacked Tata iPhone factory, though the image’s provenance remains unconfirmed.

Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro Aims for RAM/Storage Flexibility to Trim OEM Costs

Rumors say the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro will support LPDDR6 RAM and UFS 5.0 storage, but may also be compatible with older memory and storage standards to help OEMs cut costs amid DRAM price pressures. Xiaomi is reportedly testing the Pro variant, while the standard Gen 6 could have more limited RAM options. Qualcomm’s strategy reportedly leverages a shift to TSMC’s 2nm process to balance newer performance with cost flexibility for partners.
