This is in Beijing that took place the official presentation of the new SoC the manufacturer Huawei. The Kirin 950, announced powerhouse is now reality. Take stock of the SoC supposed to animate the future Huawei Mate 8.
As rumors predict the left, the manufacturer has now unveiled its new chip. Beginning with the exposure of some interesting data, including that he had sold nearly 15 million smartphones running Kirin in Asia and Europe, he has managed to attract attention, a chance to assert qur SoC Kirin equipping including Ascend Mate 7 which is our test, P8 and others have the best download speeds and are specifically for connections 4G+.
The Kirin 950 would follow the logical evolution of its predecessors by being the first certified SoC compatible with the network VoLTE (Voice over LTE) by China Mobile Communications Corporation. The chip engraved by TSMC in 16nm process by the FF + would allow a 40% performance increase and power consumption reduction of 60%.
As a reminder, the Kirin 950 is a processor where superlatives can happen to miss so it seems to outperform all others, starting with the Samsung Exynos 7420 yet one of the most powerful if not the most powerful market . Last Kirin displays a multi-core score of 6096 point where Exynos obtained in 4970 in GeekBench.
With four hearts Cortex A-72 2.4GHz representing a power increase of 11% compared to the A-57 and with four heart Cortex A-53 running at 1.8 GHz, the chip shows that n is not there to rest. First marketed, the graphics processor Mali T-880 100% improves the performance of a graphics Kirin 930.
These improvements will they be spotted with the naked eye? According to the manufacturer, yes. The acceleration of transaction processing will be visible especially when launching applications or during activities involving for example lowering the quick settings pane. The opening time of an application would increase from 686 ms to 466 ms. Side autonomy, they announce to save ten hours of use.
The Kirin 950 will achieve better photos and video, a point on which the brand smartphones are not particularly shone before. There, with a faster launch, more efficient autofocus, it will also be able to conduct more detailed settings like noise reduction, achieving panoramas … allow sharper shots in the dark and catch 4K with its codec H.265.
By performing a few score of 82,945 points AnTuTu benchmark, the Kirin 950 has the air of being built for a clash of titans between the future Samsung Exynos 8890 processor and the Snapdragon 820 from Qualcomm scheduled for November 10 next. Although these data may vary depending on the smartphones they will equip the Kirin 950 still seems to leave with a head start.
