      The Flip, 15 Aug 2022Snapdragon 888 is a very capable chip. Look at the GPU boos... moresnapdragon 8+ gen 1 has better perf/watt than sd 865 or even the sd 845. Ofc every year the chips consuming more and more power consumption but offers better perf/watt(except the samsung made sd 888, 888+ and 8gen1). An example of better perf/watt is that the new chip only needs to increase a small amount of power to enhance more performance than the predecessor. Example the snapdragon 865 scored 89 points and consumed 3.8w while the snapdragon 8+ gen 1 scored 185 points and consumed 7.5w which has double the power of sd 865. But if we double the power consumption of sd 865, it will score 178 points and consumed 7.6w (3.8w x 2). Anyways any apps and games(except genshin) wont use the chipset's full performance as gsmarena always said. I might be wrong so please tell whats my mistake in my comment

            no one buying Huawei, literally dead companies, no one care, no innovation literraly worse UI/OS.

              Anonymous, 15 Aug 2022Bad news. Kirin was much better for battery life than Snapdragon.to be specific, snapdragons 888, 888+ and 8 gen 1 have worse battery than kirin 9000

                Then ... there will be a Mate 50 Pro with Kirin 9000 5G, isn't it ??

I broke mine recently and decided it was finally time to "upgrade'. I bought a oneplus and it was a big mistake overheating pile of poo with bad battery and software compared to mate 20 pro. + No face id. Android phones have gone worse after mate 20 pro came out.

China will not be able to achieve lithography parity for at least a decade, that's at least. ASML is so far ahead in the game they play alone on that field. What we will hear from Huawei will be standard marketing shenanigans like nanometers and pixels. That alone doesn't mean anything and Samsung can tell you that.
