Huawei officially releases a new generation of flagship mobile processor Kirin 9050 Pro! The chip adopts the innovative LogicFolding architecture, which improves overall performance by 42%. Built-in new Linxi CPU and Maleoon GPU, the graphics rendering performance is increased by 142%, and it supports hardware-level ray tracing. In addition, the chip is equipped with DaVinci NPU, supports 30 billion parameter end-side large-scale models, and combined with the new Balong world-ground integrated communication chip, will be the first to be used in Mate XT 2 and the Mate 90 series that will be launched within the month!
Huawei officially announced its new generation flagship mobile processor Kirin 9050 Pro on its new folding screen flagship Mate XT 2. As a major breakthrough in Huawei’s chip technology, the new chip adopts the exclusive Logic Folding architecture, and the overall performance is improved by 42% compared to the previous generation. This self-developed chip with high-profile specifications will also be installed in the HUAWEI Mate 90 series, which is expected to be released later this month, marking a significant upgrade in Huawei’s chip technology.
In terms of core architecture design, Kirin 9050 Pro has achieved a comprehensive breakthrough. The chip is equipped with the new Linxi CPU architecture, which improves single-core performance by 24% and multi-core parallel performance by a further 52%. It can dynamically adjust core output in real time according to usage scenarios, taking into account strong performance and excellent battery life. In terms of image processing, it is equipped with an upgraded version of the Maleoon GPU, which has double the cache temporary memory and computing unit, and supports hardware-accelerated ray tracing technology, which makes the overall graphics rendering performance explode by 142%, bringing an extremely smooth game visual experience.
Artificial intelligence and communication functions are also the core selling points of Kirin 9050 Pro. The chip has a built-in Da Vinci NPU architecture with a total parameter volume of 30 billion. It can directly deploy multi-modal MOE large language models on the device, greatly improving AI computing efficiency. In terms of communication, the chip integrates the new Balong modem, which supports the integrated air, air and ground communication architecture, providing a more stable connection whether in conventional networks or satellite communications. In order to cope with high-load operation, the chip uses multi-channel thermal packaging technology to optimize heat dissipation performance and strengthens security defense mechanisms at the hardware level.
Since facing external supply chain restrictions in 2020, Huawei has continued to promote the in-depth integration of self-developed chips and HarmonyOS. This time, Kirin 9050 Pro is equipped with the new HarmonyOS 7 operating system, which will bring excellent software and hardware synergy. In addition to its debut with the HUAWEI Mate XT 2, the new chip is also confirmed to be officially installed on the HUAWEI Mate 90 series flagship mobile phones to be released at the end of this month.
