Huawei Kirin X90 Plus
The Kirin X90 Plus is Huawei's newest in-house PC processor, succeeding the Kirin X90 in the China-only MateBook Fold Ultimate Design (2026). Huawei rates it at a 28W TDP and claims a 25% overall system performance gain versus the outgoing MateBook Fold Ultimate Design — a whole-laptop comparison that also credits the new HarmonyOS 6.1 software, not a chip-only benchmark — but has not disclosed its core count, clocks or process node.
Pros
- Huawei's newest in-house PC processor, succeeding the original Kirin X90 in the MateBook Fold Ultimate Design lineup
- Rated at a 28W TDP for a full-size foldable-laptop chassis
- Huawei claims a 25% overall system performance improvement over the outgoing MateBook Fold Ultimate Design — though that figure compares the whole laptop (new chip plus HarmonyOS 6.1) against the old one, not the Kirin X90 Plus chip in isolation
- Paired with behavior-prediction preloading in HarmonyOS 6.1 for faster app and document launches, per Huawei
Cons
- Huawei has not disclosed core count, clock speeds, cache size, integrated GPU, or the manufacturing process node
- No independent Geekbench or Cinebench results have been published yet
- Sold only in China so far, in the MateBook Fold Ultimate Design starting at 24,999 yuan
