      The 985 is leagues beyond SD765 and more than plenty as performance for a $400 phone.

            These are words about Kirin 990 review performance.

              Honor 30 - $425

              Are u aware of that? OP 7T is indeed great phone for the price as well, but neglecting Honor 30 for the specs is just pure haterism.

              One can get better software, the other a lot better camera. Depends on user needs. Theres a reason why people still bought Huawei/Honor phones eventhough got no GMS (easy to sideload anyway).

                Also these synthetic benchmarks are only part of the picture. Temperatures, throttling, power efficiency are also importatnt, at least to me. And I havent heard good things about K990 so I dont expect that 985 to be any better.

Also older phones with SD855 (7T for example) are cheaper or the same level as than those with new Kirions.

                    U've got flagship performance on a mid ranger price. In the end it doesnt even matter.

                      Anonymous, 16 Apr 2020Now I'll just wait for the self proclaimed tech people that will defend their sdchips LOL765G is pure mid-range chip. 985 is basically on 980 level, which was last year top-end chip so the diference is understandable. they should compare the 985 to SD855 instead, there you would see how kirions suck.

                        How about comparing to Dimensity 1000L? Why do so few phone equipt with Dimensity 1000/L SoC? Snapdragon 5G phone is so expensive especially SD865 phone..
