Huawei Kirin 8000
Mid-range Huawei chip listed as Kirin 8000, Octa-core on the nova 13 Pro's official spec page. Third-party sources describe eight cores in a 1+3+4 layout peaking at 2.4GHz on a 7nm process. It reportedly debuted in the nova 12 and nova 12 Pro, on sale from January 2024, and also appears in the nova 13 and 13 Pro, nova 14, nova Flip and Enjoy 90 Pro Max. Huawei has published no further specifications.
Pros
- Reported eight-core CPU in a 1+3+4 layout, with the fastest core at 2.4GHz and the four small cores at 1.84GHz
- Reported as a 7nm part
- Listed by name with its eight-core count on Huawei's own nova 13 and nova 13 Pro specification pages
- Used in the nova 12 and 12 Pro, nova 13 and 13 Pro, nova 14, nova Flip and Enjoy 90 Pro Max
Cons
- Huawei publishes only the chip name and an eight-core count; the core layout, clock speeds and 7nm process come from third-party reports, and the GPU and memory support are not officially detailed
- Third-party reports disagree on the GPU, naming both a Maleoon 910 and a Mali-G610
- No benchmark results from retail devices could be verified from a published source, so no performance scores are listed
