Making an educated guess, I assume it will be a Cortex A76 based setup, probably a 4+4 setup with A55 cores (obviously) and a Mali Gpu of some sort. I also assume the g76 is the latest Mali ip available for implementation so expect Huawei to adopt that, probably in a 10-12 core configuration. Memory should be standard (2*32 or 4*16).
Interested in seeing how the A76 cores compete with Samsungs M3 cores in terms of single threaded performance. Very high clocks could see this exceed the Exynos 9810s performance...
Thnks for the info. So that 25% faster than the Exynos 9810, assuming similar clock speeds and perfect scaling. Impressive i have to say. Battery life might take a hit, despite the process node. My S9 drains a lot of battery fast when using emulators (PSP, PSX and Neo geo), compared to my older V20 which lasts much longer.
LOL at the table, at Power and Turbo, Turbo was a real thing of theirs so I thought Power was the CPU-side alternative, and then I started reading the next down.

I should hope they're subject to change!Valantar - Friday, August 31, 2018 - link
Well, I would hope the Encode/Decode stays "fast", at least :DBut sure, some more detail would indeed be nice.

Man, I'm hoping it really is a POWER CPU. That'd shake the handheld PC market up somethin' fierce.LiverpoolFC5903 - Friday, August 31, 2018 - link

GPU will be a Mali-G72MP24 configuration, thanks to the advantages of 7nm fab node they managed to cram more cores for little extra power usage.LiverpoolFC5903 - Friday, August 31, 2018 - link

Although this article now does not contain any real information, I really like the recent additions of jokes in anandtech's content!SydneyBlue120d - Friday, August 31, 2018 - link
Please ask if there is L5 frequency support for both GPS and Galileo, thanks.Lodix - Friday, August 31, 2018 - link
I am waiting to see what the Kirin 980 brings.By the way... ads are getting TOO intrusive lately on Anandtech. It makes reading much uncomfortable...

For Mfc. Process, it was to be the first 7nm SoC though, right? Any reason to expect that to change? I thought they already said so
