Huawei today announced company’s latest
next generation chipset – the Huawei Kirin 920. The Kirin 920 SoC is based on
ARM’s big.LITTLE architecture which housed four Cortex A15 and four Cortex A7 cores.
Just like the SoCs in Samsung
Smartphones (Exynos SoC), four Cortex A15 cores will be doing the heavy lifting
i.e. more power requiring tasks and the power efficient Cortex A7 cores will be
attending the tasks which need lesser powers and energy.
The four Cortex A15 cores can be clocked
from 1.7 GHz to 2.0 GHz and the Cortex A7 cores are limited from 1.3 GHz to 1.6
GHz, The Kirin 920 SoC uses powerful Mali T628 MP4 quad core Graphics (Same you
can find on Galaxy Note 3 and Galaxy S5 but with six cores).
The chipset support category 6 LTE
networks and is built on 28 nm HPM process and features Tensilica HIFI3
professional audio processor, QHD (2560x1600 p) display support and 4K video
recording at smooth 30 frames per second.

The first Smartphone to feature this
Kirin 920 SoC is reported to be Huawei’s own next flagship Smartphone codenamed
Huawei Mulan, which some rumors suggest will sport 4.5-inch Full HD display
with 482 ppi density, 3 GB RAM, 13 MP camera with 4K video record.
The AnTuTu benchmark appeared yesterday,
and guess what the Huawei Mulan with Kirin 920 tops the chart with a score of
37999, which is better than HTC One M8 (37009), International Galaxy S5 (36018)
and Xperia Z2 (33182).
Now for your information the Mulan is
still in its early beta stage and it can be expected when it will come out of
beta stage it might improve the score further. Do share your thoughts about
Kirin 920 SoC in the comment section.
