This powerful chip is expected to rely once again on the Cortex A73 CPU architecture, but this time it will use a new, improved, 12-core GPU (!), with Huawei aiming to put it on par with Samsung’s Exynos 8895 SoC and Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 835 model.

As we have already informed you, the first phone in the world to use this specific Kirin 970 SoC will be Huawei’s Mate 10 phablet, which will also be the first Huawei device with edge-to-edge 18:9 Full Active screen, with a size of 6” and 2160 x 1080 pixels resolution.
