A new written report out of People's republic of china claims that Huawei volition debut its next-generation mobile processor, the Kirin g, in the second half of 2020. According to insider sources cited by Huawei Central, the new chip volition be built on the 5nm procedure node and, will power the Mate twoscore lineup next year. According to the sources, Huawei has already started the trial product of the Kirin 1000, which will have ARM A77-based CPU cores.

There'south no farther info on either the Kirin m chipset or the Mate twoscore lineup right now, but we do expect to hear more than on the subject area in the coming months. However, if the new report is anything to become past, nosotros should wait a significant improvement over an already impressive Kirin 990, especially in term of energy efficiency, thank you to the new 5nm process. It should too take a faster GPU than the current-gen chipset, as well as an embedded 5G modem that might be faster than the Balong 5000.

As a quick refresher, Huawei last month launched the Mate thirty Pro with top-end hardware and incredible features. As mentioned already, the device comes with Huawei's latest flagship SoC, the Kirin 990, alongside other high-end components, including a quad-cam setup that many initial reviews are claiming to exist among the all-time ever on a smartphone. It also comes with a waterfall display, a huge battery with ultra-fast charging and much more than.

However, for all its loftier-end features, the phone lacks one critical functionality that many believe might adversely affect its global sales. Fifty-fifty though it runs Android, it doesn't support any official Google apps and services, including Google Play Services, Gmail, Google Maps, YouTube etc. Latest developments, however, advise that there's a chance it might modify in the near future, although, we won't hold our jiff for it.
