SMIC 7nm doesn’t scale just yet.

It scaled well enough for the Kirin 9000s.

But that's probably why Loongson isn't on it, capacity is probably being spent on Huawei's next chip.

For a meager 1.6 million phones sold to date.

Again, 7nm is a fantastic milestone for a forge that does not have access to newer ASML equipment, but context matters.

1.6M chips is orders of magnitude more chips than Loongson has sold AFAIK.
