China's SMIC produced the 7nm Kirin 9000S for the Huawei Mate 60 Pro using ASML's NXT:2000i, a deep ultraviolet (DUV) lithography scanner intended for less dense designs.

The Kirin 9000S is a 7nm mobile system-on-a-chip (SoC) manufactured by China's SMIC. The 9000S is on roughly the same level as a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865, which debuted in late 2019.

Huawei's competitors, such as Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., have been producing 7nm chips for over five years; their success rate generally tops 90 percent.
