If you are taking about the new Huawei phone the theory is that it’s just repurposed Kirin 9000 chips hoarded before the sanctions and not a custom design. So basically a propagada performance. I guess someone will get hold of a phone and tear it down eventually.

TechInsights has already done a tear down and write up on what they found, they have electron microscope cross-sections for subscribers, and there are screenshots floating around on Twitter and the Semiwiki forums. It does seem real, but who knows the volume or cost at this point.
