That Guy, 17 Oct 2016Nope, it will have an eight core G71, also did i mentioned ... moreI doubt if the screen resolution will stay at 1080 as rumours are suggesting. I Believe both versions (the Manhattan and long island will have QHD screens) The only difference being that the curved screen and the fact that the Long island will only be available in the 256gb storage option while the Long island will be available in the 64, 128 and 256GB options.
After all it makes no sense that Huawei will make a very premium device with a curved screen and QHD screen and opt only to sell it in their home country when they are seriously trying to break into American markets and be a dominant force

    The kirin 960 will use a Mali G-71 GPU in a MP8 configuration with support for full 4k video. It currently outperforms other chips except the Apple A-10 fusion chip which is to be expected as nobody outperforms Apple chips. The real question tho is if it will still stay in the lead when the Snapdragon 830 and the latest Exynos or even the Mediatek Helio-X30 is released?

This is common sense and everyone who knows the slightest thing about how business or the economy works understands this.

                And usually these things are leaked, such as their prototype display already has been. Like how Samsung's curved display was seen in their patents as early as 2013. Again, you have no basis for thinking Sharp has any role here.

Thier only competition is Exynos. If Huawei just release thier source code for ROM development, Kirin phones will easily become a better choice than Snapdragon for everybody.

                          sharp can start making edge displays as early as tomorrow, why? you and i are unaware of their business plans and the time and effort they have already put into projects when you can objectively show me that this ill be waiting
