The gap between Huawei Kirin Core and Apple, MediaTek and Qualcomm has begun to widen
More than a year ago, when it comes to high-end mobile phone chips, we generally compared Apple A chips, Qualcomm Snapdragon chips, Huawei Kirin chips, and at most one Samsung Exynos series, rarely involving LianFake.
At that time, Huawei Kirin chip was also the most powerful and one of the top mobile phone chips. However, MediaTek is still a mid-range chip and can’t really compete with Apple, Qualcomm and Huawei.

However, things are also changing very fast. After September 15 last year, Huawei Kirin chips could not be produced, and became the top performer for the time being. In September this year, Apple released a new A15 chip, which improved its performance again.
Then a few days ago, QUALCOMM launched its first TSMC 4nm chip, Tianji 9000, with its performance directly following Apple A15, which made people exclaim that MediaTek YES.
In the near future, QUALCOMM will also release a new generation of chip Snapdragon 898 (temporarily named). The process may also be 4nm. With the new architecture of ARMV9 and the new CPU and GPU cores, the performance will also be improved.

Samsung is also expected to release new Exynos chips. After all, a generation of flagship chips a year. If this rhythm does not occur unexpectedly, everyone will not be disturbed.
However, in this generation of flagship chips, Huawei Kirin is no longer available. Huawei can only compare with you with Kirin 9000. Compared with you, Huawei Kirin chips have fallen behind by one generation.
In addition, as the time goes on, the gap between Huawei Kirin and Apple, MediaTek and Qualcomm chips will become wider and wider.

Although Huawei’s Kirin chip research and development will not stop, it is still ongoing, but we all know that the chip that stays on the design drawing cannot be streamed, produced, verified, used and improved. It is still different from the chip that can be produced and used in practical applications.
However, if several generations of chips can only stay on the drawings and cannot be produced and used on mobile phones, the gap between this ideal and reality may become wider and wider.
So I really hope that Huawei Kirin chip can break through the blockade and be produced as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will not be able to maintain its status as an equal with Apple and Qualcomm.
