HiSilicon Announces New Kirin 950 SoC
 

Today in Beijing HiSilicon held an extensive media briefing on their brand new flagship SoC - the Kirin 950. The new chipset is a very large leap for the Huawei subsidiary as it represents the first true flagship successor to the Kirin 920 that we've seen a little over a year ago in the Honor 6 review.

In the past we're been quite disappointed with the Kirin's overall performance in phones such as the Mate 7 or the new P8. The reason to this was mostly due to lacklustre showing of the GPU and general low efficiency of the SoC. The new chipsets promises to bring a lot of improvements and also represents a lot of firsts for the company, so let's immediately go over the configuration details of the SoC.
