New Huawei Mate 20 teasers focus on the Kirin 980 chipset

“A higher Intelligence is coming.” No, this isn’t a sci-fi movie, it’s the tagline of the latest Huawei Mate 20 Pro teaser. It extols the performance of the Kirin 980 chipset (like this teaser) and LTE speed (world’s first to support Cat. 21).

The second new teaser is... bizarre. Even more bizarre than the piano and typewriter one. We’d say it’s something about Qmoji, but the text at the end reads “master the past and control the future”.

As the October 16 event draws near, we guess we will see more teasers that focus on the camera. The Kirin 980 is cool and all, but Huawei P20 Pro’s best-known feature is its triple camera, not its chipset. And the latest triple Leica cam is supposed to be even better.

Even the 970 with GPU Turbo beat the 845 10 to 0 in app opening in a speed test, 980 will slaughter even the 855 even though it's the same year competitor to the 845.

Do you know why I am not disappointed every time a new SoC is announced? It's because I don't set my expectation too high. Iet's talk about the 980, I knew there will be a huge leap in CPU preformance, but then my logics stopped me "Hadar, Don't ...
