The HiSilicon Kirin 658 is an ARM-based octa-core SoC for mid-range smartphones and tablets. It was announced early 2017 and features eight ARM Cortex-A53 cores. Four cores can be clocked with up to 1.7 GHz (power saving cores) and four with up to 2.35 GHz (performance cores). The difference to the older Kirin 650 and Kirin 655 SoCs is the higher clock speed of the performance cores (2.35 versus 2.1 and 2.0 GHz).
Furthermore, a ARM Mali-T830 MP2 graphics card (at 900 MHz with 40.8 GFLOPS), a 64-Bit LPDDR3 memory controller and a dual-sim capable LTE Cat. 6 (max. 300 MBit/s and GSM, WCDMA, UMTS, HSPA+) radio are integrated in the SoC. The processor performance can be compared with the older Kirin 930 and therefore sufficient for daily usage as browsing and non demanding apps. High-end SoCs with Cortex-A57 or A72 cores however should be noticeably faster. The SoC is produced in a modern 16nm FinFET process and is therefore very power efficient.
The HiSilicon Kirin 9000W is an SoC that can be used in smartphones and tablets based on Android and was first installed in the Huawei MatePad Pro 13.2.
Huawei does not reveal any information about the SoC. The little information that is available comes from benchmarks and system analysis tools. The CPU consists of three clusters with a total of 12 cores. The power-saving cluster has four ARM Cortex-A510 cores, each operating at up to 1,530 MHz, while six other cores use unspecified cores from HiSilicon (0x0D42) and clock at up to 2,150 MHz. The third cluster contains two HiSilicon cores (0x0D02), each with a maximum clock speed of 2,487 MHz. The performance cores could possibly be based on the TaiShan V120 architecture (as in the Kirin 9000S).
The single-core performance is correspondingly mixed, but the multi-core performance is at the level of a high-end SoC from 2022 due to the numerous cores.
A Maleoon 910 by HiSilicon is integrated as the graphics unit, similar to the 9000S (where it was clocked with up to 750MHz).
Nothing concrete is known about the manufacturing process or the architecture. The SoC will probably be manufactured in 7 nm at SMIC.
