Huawei has officially unveiled its latest processor Kirin 960 designed to debut on company’s next flagship presumably Honor Mate 9.
The new Kirin 960 processor uses four 2.4GHz Cortex-A73 cores and four 1.8GHz Cortex-A53 cores. It supports ARM Mali-G71MP8 for improved graphic and gaming performance, four component carriers (4CC) for LTE, Cat.12 LTE for download, and Cat.13 for uploads.
Kirin 960 processor also uses CCI-550 for an improved memory bandwidth compared to its predecessor CCI-440 design and a low-powered i6 sensing core.
Since Huwaei has not so far announced any of its latest smartphones powered by the Kirin 960 processor, rumours suggest Huawei Honor Mate 9 will be the first one to have it onboard, expected to be unveiled on November 3 in Germany this year.
