AnonD-754814, 19 Aug 2020What type telephoto did ASUS introduce first ?Periscope (or dual prism) optical zoom with actual moving lens elements? Not the first one to do it in the world but certainly the first in the smartphone industry.

      Why don't you start with the name of TSMC research boss ?
      And before you further speak without giving proof know that FinFET was first fabricated by a Japanese company.

      And AMD asked TSMC because AMD doesn't have that much resources to do own fabrication. And that was a right call for them.

          Do you think why AMD ask TSMC to produce their 7nm.
          Not to mention Intel failure to produce 7nm and now also ask TSMC to produce their 7nm processor.

          China for the last decade is not that far behind in terms R&D spending compared to USA. Also with current mandate to use less foreign tech, it seems within a decade, we'll see decent China Chipset.

                ARM is not chinese brand.
                And TSMC doesn't do innovation. They certainly do innovation but that is not directly related to smartphone. Most their machinery parts come from Japan/USA/SK. This is why USA was able to make TSMC ditch Huawei.
                TSMC is just one type of labor.

Instead of encouraging other companies to follow them, they created the reason why other manufacturers should AVOID using the true optical zoom on a smartphone. I won't blame them for the failure of the original Zenfone Zoom since I know both the camera hardware and software weren't very matured back in 2015, but companies that will do it right should deserve a lot more credit, IMO.
