Anandtech has published a new overview of Huawei's Kirin 970 chipset, giving everyone a better idea of what to expect from the power and performance of the processor.
Ahead of an October event that will in all likelihood bring us the Mate 10 smartphone, Huawei CEO Richard Yu gave an introductory keynote speech to the company’s newest chipset, the Kirin 970.
A leaked screenshot reveals the Kirin 970 will have octa-core CPU with 64bit ARM architecture. Four of the cores are Cortex-A73, clocked at 2.8 GHz, while the other four are Cortex-A53, but their frequency is yet unknown.
Rumors about the new Kirin 970 chipset by Huawei's subsidiary HiSilicon are gaining speed. Latest reports reveal TSMC is starting mass production of the 10 nm SoC in September and will provide the chips in time for the Mate 10, anticipated to launch in October.
If current rumors turn out to be true, the Huawei Mate 10 could ship with HIsilicon's new Kirin 970 chipset. This means the phone would be able to compete with phones using the Snapdragon 835 and Exynos 8895 since all three chips are built on a 10nm process.
