The first reason is that the previous generation of chips did not perform well. The Kirin 980's previous generation, the Kirin 970, although equipped with GPU turbocharging technology, has improved the gaming experience of Huawei mobile phones to a usable level. However, the fever of the Kirin 970 is more serious, and the game experience can not even beat the Snapdragon 835.

The second reason is that the Kirin 980 is very balanced. Its full load power consumption is only 3.9W, while the Snapdragon 855 power consumption is 5.0W. Even compared to the first generation of God U Snapdragon 835, the Kirin 980 power consumption is lower. This makes the Kirin 980 in the next two years, will not be the gap between the mid-end chip, the following year released the Kirin 820 still can not catch up with it.

The third reason is that Kirin 990 does squeeze toothpaste. The CPU architecture of the ordinary version of Kirin 990 has basically not changed, and the process has not changed, but the cache and GPU energy efficiency ratio have been improved, and the performance has been improved by less than 10%. In other words, the Kirin 980 model has a higher warranty rate, and old users feel that they have not lost money.

The above three points are the reasons why the 70980 is called a generation of God U, but the most important point is because the Kirin 980 refreshed our impression of Huawei mobile phones. Since then, Huawei is no longer a proxy for jazz life, but a domestic high-end brand that can lead Snapdragon for half a year.
Because Kirin 980 is a high-performance mobile processor launched by hisilose Semiconductor in 2018, it uses a 7nm process manufacturing, has an efficient CPU and GPU, and memory and storage support is also very strong.
At the same time, Huawei has also deeply integrated Kirin 980 with its own operating system EMUI, optimizing various functions and fluency, so that Kirin 980 can still run a variety of applications stably and smoothly.
In addition, Huawei also provides regular system updates and security patches for Kirin 980 to ensure its stability and security.
Therefore, we can say that the Kirin 980 is still smooth today because it has advanced hardware configuration, excellent software system and continuous upgrade optimization.
Because Kirin 980 is the flagship chip launched by Huawei in 2018, it is manufactured by 7 nm process, has a CPU architecture of 2 large cores, 2 medium-sized cores and 4 small cores, and has joined the support of neural network processing unit (NPU), which makes the processing speed faster, and is also equipped with advanced GPU technology. Enables smoother gaming and multimedia experiences.
In addition, Huawei has also performed well in system optimization and software upgrades, constantly optimizing the system and introducing new features, making the Kirin 980 processor still maintain a high performance.
It is expected that in the future, with the arrival of the 5G era and changes in application scenarios, Huawei will launch more advanced chips to maintain its technological lead.
