Notes
On-device AI inference across phones and PCs; from 2026 also custom data-centre inference silicon and 1.6T optics for AWS. Signed a multi-year, broad patent cross-licence with HUAWEI on 2026-10-05 spanning 5G, compute, AI and networking, and agreed to buy certain of Huawei's US patents - the first time Qualcomm has paid to license and acquire patents from Huawei. Neither company disclosed the financial terms, the number of patents transferred or the duration; the purchase is subject to Hart-Scott-Rodino antitrust review and the agreement closes after the necessary regulatory approvals.
