HiSilicon Kirin 820 5G vs HiSilicon Kirin 935

VS
The HiSilicon Kirin 820 5G and HiSilicon Kirin 935 are two processors with varying specifications.

Starting with the HiSilicon Kirin 820 5G, it boasts an impressive architecture consisting of 1x 2.36 GHz Cortex-A76 core, 3x 2.22 GHz Cortex-A76 cores, and 4x 1.84 GHz Cortex-A55 cores. This configuration allows for efficient multitasking and provides a balance between performance and power consumption. Additionally, it utilizes the ARMv8.2-A instruction set and has a lithography of 7 nm, resulting in enhanced power efficiency and overall performance. The TDP (thermal design power) of the Kirin 820 5G is 6 Watts, making it an energy-efficient option. It also features the Ascend D110 Lite neural processing and HUAWEI Da Vinci Architecture for efficient AI processing.

On the other hand, the HiSilicon Kirin 935 has a different architecture. It is equipped with 4x 2.2 GHz Cortex-A53 cores and 4x 1.5 GHz Cortex-A53 cores. While this configuration provides decent performance, it may not be as powerful as the Kirin 820 5G. The Kirin 935 utilizes the ARMv8-A instruction set and has a lithography of 28 nm. With a TDP of 7 Watts, it is slightly less energy-efficient than the Kirin 820 5G. The Kirin 935 also features 1000 million transistors, which contributes to its overall performance.

In summary, while both processors have 8 cores, the Kirin 820 5G offers a more advanced architecture with higher clock speeds. Its 7 nm lithography and lower TDP make it a more energy-efficient choice. The inclusion of Ascend D110 Lite and HUAWEI Da Vinci Architecture further enhances its AI processing capabilities. On the other hand, the Kirin 935 has a less advanced architecture and a slightly higher TDP. However, it still provides decent performance, especially with its 1000 million transistors. Ultimately, the choice between the two processors depends on specific requirements and priorities, such as power efficiency or AI processing capabilities.
