MediaTek supplies its 5G chip, Dimensity 800, to Honor phones. Novatek supplies integrated circuits for Honor displays, while Sensortek supplies optical sensors, it said. Huawei annually shipped between 60 million and 70 million Honor phones over the past few years, the consultancy said. Asked about potential shipments to Honor, MediaTek chief executive officer Rick Tsai (蔡力行) said that the company is assessing the situation. MediaTek last month forecast that global 5G smartphone shipments would experience a high-speed growth next year, more than doubling from this year’s 200 million units.
