In the current international situation, the development of Huawei's Kirin chips has attracted much attention. After the sanctions of the Kirin 9000 processor, Huawei's persistence and innovation in technology have once again been demonstrated, and the newly launched downclocked version of the Kirin 9000s has become a hot topic in the industry.
Huawei has been making continuous efforts in independent research and development in the field of processors, and the emergence of the Kirin 9000s seems to have given the market a surprise. Compared with the flagship chips of Qualcomm and MediaTek in the same period, the performance of the Kirin 9000s does not break through gender, but the smoothness in practical applications is impressive. This achievement is not only a technological breakthrough, but also a strong proof of Huawei's independent R&D capabilities.
The Huawei Mate 60 series is powered by a downclocked Kirin 9000s and has successfully increased its market share. The success of the high-end market is gratifying, but in order to further expand the user base, the strength of the low-end market is imperative. Therefore, the rumors of the Kirin 830 processor have attracted widespread attention. Although the Kirin 830 has not yet been unveiled, the actual performance of the downclocked version of the Kirin 9000s has filled the performance gap to some extent, providing new ideas for Huawei's layout in the low-end market.
The recently launched downclocked version of the Kirin 9000s debuted on the Huawei MatePad Pro 11 2024 model, sparking consumer curiosity. Its CPU configuration is 1 x 249GHz oversized core, 3 x 2Big core of 15GHz and 4 x 1Small core of 53GHz with Maloeon 910 GPU. Compared to the Kirin 9000s, the ultra-large core frequency of the downclocked version is reduced by 013ghz。There is no exact information on whether the GPU frequency has decreased.
From the perspective of performance scores, in Geekbench 6, the Kirin 9000s scored 1244 points for single-core and 3793 points for multi-core, while the downclocked version of the Kirin 9000s scored 1243 points for single-core and 4111 points for multi-core. This small difference in frequency has little real impact on performance, but is expected to bring some advantages in terms of energy consumption and heat generation. This difference may be more obvious in future mobile phone products.
In the face of such technological innovation, consumers are full of expectations for whether the downclocked Kirin 9000S will be applied in the Huawei nova 12 series. Considering that the nova series has always emphasized a thin and light feel and offline sales, the low-energy consumption characteristics of the downscaled version of the Kirin 9000S seem to be more in line with this positioning. In addition, the launch of the downclocked version will also help make up for Huawei's competitiveness in the low-end market, especially when the Huawei nova 11 ultra uses Snapdragon 778G but costs 4000 yuan, the nova 12 series will be able to better meet market expectations if it uses the downclocked version of the Kirin 9000s.
Overall, the launch of the downscaled Kirin 9000s not only solves the production capacity problem, but also provides a competitive chip for the low-end market. Fine-tuning performance has less impact on the user experience, but is expected to deliver better performance in terms of battery life and cooling. The use of the downscaled Kirin 9000s is not only a continuation of technological innovation, but also an attempt to find a more flexible strategy in the market competition.
In the end, the fate of the downclocked Kirin 9000s and whether it will continue to be launched in future phones is still an open mystery. However, this innovative move not only provides consumers with more choices, but also demonstrates Huawei's perseverance and efforts in the face of adversity, creating more possibilities for future chip competition.
