The upcoming Kirin 9100 chip for the Huawei Mate 70 series will be manufactured on a 6nm node, but it still lags behind competitors due to US sanctions.
With its new all-ARM design featuring the first Cortex-X CPU core in the Kirin family, the 9100 represents a significant shift from its predecessor.
Despite being a step up from the Kirin 9000S, the older architecture of the 9100’s CPU components limits its performance against cutting-edge chipsets.
US sanctions continue to restrict HiSilicon’s access to advanced semiconductor technology, which hampers the development of more competitive Kirin chipsets.
