Huawei Kirin 710A

Released Apr 13, 2020Mobile Chipset

Huawei's octa-core 4G chip, based on the Kirin 710 and reported to be built by SMIC on 14nm. Huawei lists four Cortex-A73 cores at 2.0GHz, four Cortex-A53 cores at 1.7GHz and a Mali G51 GPU. It debuted in the Honor Play 4T in April 2020 and scored 323 single-core and 1,172 multi-core in Geekbench 6 in review testing.

Pros

  • Huawei's spec page lists four Cortex-A73 cores at 2.0GHz and four Cortex-A53 cores at 1.7GHz, an eight-core layout with a Mali G51 GPU
  • Scored 323 single-core and 1,172 multi-core in Geekbench 6 in review testing of the Huawei MatePad SE 11
  • Used in budget devices including the Honor Play 4T, P smart 2021 and MatePad T 10s, and in some markets the MatePad SE 11

Cons

  • Ended at the bottom of the CPU benchmark comparison in review testing of the MatePad SE 11, behind a Snapdragon 695 tablet and the Snapdragon 680 MatePad SE predecessor
  • Its Geekbench 6 multi-core score of 1,172 sat far below the 5,482 tablet class average cited in that review
  • Huawei's spec page gives only the CPU layout and GPU family; the 14nm SMIC process comes from media and spec-sheet reports rather than a Huawei specification
