According to a source, Huawei will soon have a new old smartphone – Mate 40E Pro 2022 based on the Kirin 9000L single-chip system. And interesting moments are connected with SoC.
First, the platform is credited with 5G support. For Huawei, this is, one might say, a new stage of development. Due to US sanctions, the company was cut off from important components (RF filters), without which it was not possible to implement 5G. Last year, various insiders said that the company is working on this problem and, apparently, there really is a solution.
The second point is related to the fact that the manufacturer of the Kirin 9000L is Samsung. Even if we leave out the fact that US sanctions banned the production of their own Kirin SoCs (but Huawei managed to get around this too), their canonical manufacturer was TSMC. How and why Samsung is now producing Kirin is unclear.
Kirin 9000L itself is the most simplified platform in the line, which also includes the actual Kirin 9000 and Kirin 9000E. The frequency of the Arm Cortex-A77 cores in the Kirin 9000L is reduced to 2.86 GHz (against 3.13 GHz for the “sisters”), the Arm Mali-G78 GPU manages 18 cores instead of 22-24, and the so-called neural processor (NPU) – single core.
In terms of its characteristics, the Mate 40E Pro 2022 will probably match the Mate 40 Pro, but adjusted for a different platform. Interestingly, the source also names another novelty of Huawei – P50E. Allegedly, it will be released simultaneously with the Mate 40E Pro 2022, but it will not support 5G only.
