AMD to invest $400 million in India by 2028: Here’s what we know

US chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices said on Friday it will invest around $400 million in India over the next five years and will build its largest design center in the tech hub of Bengaluru. AMD’s announcement was made by its Chief Technology Officer Mark Papermaster at an annual semiconductor conference that started Friday in Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s home state of Gujarat. Other speakers at the flagship event include Foxconn Chairman Young Liu and Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra. Despite being a late entrant, the Modi government has been courting investments into India’s nascent chip sector to establish its credentials as a chipmaking hub. AMD said it will open its new design centre campus in Bengaluru by end of this year and create 3,000 new engineering roles within five years. “Our India teams will continue to play a pivotal role in delivering the high-performance and adaptive solutions that support AMD customers worldwide,” Papermaster said.

Huawei Mate X2 launch on February 22, teaser reveals inward folding screen

Huawei Mate X2 will sport an inward folding design, an official teaser poster on Chinese social networking site Weibo has revealed. Huawei will hold an event on February 22 at 8:00 PM local time in China to unveil its new foldable smartphone.

Huawei Mate X2 teaser image shows the smartphone from the side, suggesting it will come with an inward folding design, much like Samsung Galaxy Fold. This is different from Huawei’s original Mate X, the display on which folds outwards.

In the image, the foldable phone can be seen from the side open at an angle. There is a slight glow on the inside of the hinge, compared to the rest of the poster. The hinge opens up to display the time eight on a clock, which is when the launch event is scheduled for.

Huawei Mate X2 launch in China on February 22: What we know

Huawei Mate X2 is the company’s third foldable smartphone after the original Mate X, which was launched in 2019, and Mate Xs, which made its debut in 2020. Both Mate X and Mate Xs come with outward-folding displays. Huawei Mate X2 is codenamed Teton, according to tipster Evan Blass.

To recall, Huawei filed a patent with the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) for an inward folding smartphone design, back in January last year. The patent sketches also hint at a slot for a stylus. Further, there could be a total of six cameras.

Ross Young, who is the founder and principal analyst for DisplaySearch and DSCC,  previously revealed that the display for the Mate X2 will be supplied by Samsung and BOE. The smartphone is said to sport a CPI (Colorless Polyimide) type display that we saw on the original Samsung Galaxy Fold, which is different from the UTG (Ultra-Thin Glass) type screen on the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip, and the Galaxy Z Fold 2.

However, the downside of CPI is that it uses plastic material and does not offer the same durability as UTG that uses glass. Further, CPI is said to be less resistant than UTG.
