Performance
CPU speed
2 x 2.27GHz & 6 x 1.88GHz
4 x 2.36GHz & 4 x 1.84GHz
The CPU speed indicates how many processing cycles per second can be executed by a CPU, considering all of its cores (processing units). It is calculated by adding the clock rates of each core or, in the case of multi-core processors employing different microarchitectures, of each group of cores.
CPU threads
More threads result in faster performance and better multitasking.
Uses big.LITTLE technology
✔HiSilicon Kirin 810
✔Huawei Kirin 970
Using big.LITTLE technology, a chip can switch between two sets of processor cores to maximize performance and battery life. For example, when playing a game the more powerful cores will be used to increase performance, whereas checking email will use the less powerful cores to maximize battery life.
Uses HMP
✖HiSilicon Kirin 810
✖Huawei Kirin 970
Heterogeneous Multi-Processing (HMP) is a more advanced version of big.LITTLE technology. In this setup, a processor can utilize all cores at the same time, or just a single core for low-intensity tasks. This can provide powerful performance or increased battery life respectively.
turbo clock speed

Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (Huawei Kirin 970)
The maximum amount of memory (RAM) supported.
maximum memory bandwidth
31.78GB/s
27.82GB/s
This is the maximum rate that data can be read from or stored into memory.
memory channels
More memory channels increases the speed of data transfer between the memory and the CPU.
eMMC version
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (HiSilicon Kirin 810)
Unknown. Help us by suggesting a value. (Huawei Kirin 970)
A higher version of eMMC allows faster memory interfaces, having a positive effect on the performance of a device. For example, when transferring files from your computer to the internal storage over USB.
Supports ECC memory
✖HiSilicon Kirin 810
✖Huawei Kirin 970
Error-correcting code memory can detect and correct data corruption. It is used when is it essential to avoid corruption, such as scientific computing or when running a server.
Features
Has integrated LTE
✔HiSilicon Kirin 810
✔Huawei Kirin 970
The system on a chip (SoC) has an integrated LTE cellular chip. LTE is capable of downloading at faster speeds than older, 3G technology.

✔Huawei Kirin 970 (ARM Cortex-A53)
A technology integrated into the processor to secure the device for use with features such as mobile payments and streaming video using digital rights management (DRM).
uses multithreading
✖HiSilicon Kirin 810
✖Huawei Kirin 970
Multithreading technology (such as Intel’s Hyperthreading or AMD’s Simultaneous Multithreading) provides increased performance by splitting each of the processor’s physical cores into virtual cores, also known as threads. This way, each core can run two instruction streams at once.
Has NX bit
✔HiSilicon Kirin 810
✔Huawei Kirin 970 (ARM Cortex-A53)
NX bit helps protect the computer from malicious attacks.
bits executed at a time

Performance
cpu speed
2 x 2.27GHz & 6 x 1.88GHz
4 x 2.36GHz & 4 x 1.84GHz
cpu speed a shows how many processing cycles per second the processor can perform, given all its cores (processors).
It is calculated by adding the clock speeds of each core or, in the case of multi-core processors, each group of cores.
processor thread
More threads result in better performance and better multitasking.
Uses big.LITTLE technology
✔HiSilicon Kirin 810
✔Huawei Kirin 970
Using big.LITTLE technology, the chip can switch between two sets of processors to ensure maximum performance and battery life. For example, while gaming, a more powerful processor will be used to improve performance, while checking email will use a less powerful processor to extend battery life.
Uses HMP
✖HiSilicon Kirin 810
✖Huawei Kirin 970
HMP is a more advanced version of big.LITTLE technology. In this configuration, the processor can use all cores at the same time, or only one core for low-intensity tasks. This can provide high performance and longer battery life respectively.
turbo clock speed
Unknown. Help us offer a price.
(HiSilicon Kirin 810)
Unknown. Help us offer a price. (Huawei Kirin 970)
When the processor is running below its limits, it can jump to a higher clock speed to increase performance.
L2 cache
Unknown. Help us offer a price. (Huawei Kirin 970)
More L2 scratchpad memory results in faster results in CPU and system performance settings.
L1 cache
64KB (ARM Cortex-A73)
More L1 scratchpad memory results in faster results in CPU and system performance tuning.
hour multiplier
Unknown. Help us offer a price. (HiSilicon Kirin 810)
Unknown. Help us offer a price. (Huawei Kirin 970)
The hour multiplier controls the processor speed.
L3 cache
Unknown. Help us offer a price. (HiSilicon Kirin 810)
Unknown. Help us offer a price. (Huawei Kirin 970)
More L3 flash memory results in faster results in CPU and system performance settings.
Memory
RAM speed
2133MHz
1600MHz
Can support faster memory which speeds up system performance.
DDR version
DDR (Double Data Rate Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory) is the most common type of main memory. New versions of DDR memory support higher maximum speeds and are more energy efficient.
maximum memory
Unknown. Help us offer a price. (Huawei Kirin 970)
Maximum amount of memory (RAM).
maximum memory bandwidth
31.78GB/s
27.82GB/s
This is the maximum rate at which data can be read from or stored in memory.
memory channels
More memory channels increase the speed of data transfer between memory and processor.
eMMC version
Unknown. Help us offer a price. (HiSilicon Kirin 810)
Unknown. Help us offer a price. (Huawei Kirin 970)
The newer version of eMMC — built-in flash memory card — speeds up the memory interface, has a positive effect on device performance, for example, when transferring files from a computer to internal memory via USB.
Supports memory recovery code
✖HiSilicon Kirin 810
✖Huawei Kirin 970
Memory error recovery code can detect and repair data corruption.
It is used when necessary to avoid distortion, such as in scientific computing or when starting a server.
Features
Has built-in LTE
✔HiSilicon Kirin 810
✔Huawei Kirin 970

1200MBits/s
Download speed is a measurement of Internet connection bandwidth that represents the maximum data transfer rate at which a device can access online content.
Download Speed
200MBits/s
150MBits/s
Download Speed is a measure of the bandwidth of an Internet connection and represents the maximum data transfer rate at which a device can send information to a server or other device.
Has TrustZone
✔HiSilicon Kirin 810 (ARM Cortex-A55)
✔Huawei Kirin 970 (ARM Cortex-A53)
using Digital Rights Management (DRM) technology.
uses multithreading
✖HiSilicon Kirin 810
✖Huawei Kirin 970
Multithreading technology (such as Intel’s Hyperthreading or AMD’s Simultaneous Multithreading) provides higher performance by dividing each physical core of the processor and on logical cores, also known like streams.
Thus, each core can run two instruction streams at the same time.
Has NX bit
✔HiSilicon Kirin 810
✔Huawei Kirin 970 (ARM Cortex-A53)
NX bit helps protect your computer from virus attacks.
bits transmitted at the same time
Unknown. Help us offer a price. (HiSilicon Kirin 810)
128 (ARM Cortex-A53)
NEON provides faster media processing such as MP3 listening.
Has AES
✔HiSilicon Kirin 810 (ARM Cortex-A55)
✔Huawei Kirin 970 (ARM Cortex-A53)
AES is used to speed up encryption and decryption.
VFP version
