The report states that Qualcomm and MediaTek will collectively reduce production by around 15 to 20 million 4nm mobile processors.

The recent surge in prices of memory chips has caused significant supply chain pressure, which has started to seriously affect demand in the smartphone market. MediaTek and Qualcomm are both drastically reducing the shipment of 4-nanometer smartphone chips, with an estimated decrease of around 15 to 20 million units, equivalent to 20,000 to 30,000 wafers.
