What is the difference between Kirin 710A and Kirin 710?

With the continuous development of mobile phone technology, the performance of mobile phone chips has become one of the important factors for consumers to choose mobile phones.Huawei's Kirin series chips have always attracted much attention, among which Kirin 710A and Kirin 710 have attracted much attention. There is only one letter difference between the two chips.So, what is the difference between these two chips?

What is the difference between Kirin 710A and Kirin 710?What are the differences between Kirin 710A and Kirin 710?

Kirin 710A is a castrated version of Kirin 710, using Huawei's own chip manufacturing technology

Kirin 710 uses a 12nm manufacturing process, while Kirin 710a uses a 14nm manufacturing process.This means that compared to 710a, 710 has higher integration and lower power consumption.

Kirin 710 uses 8 Cortex-A73 cores, of which 4 high-performance cores are clocked at 2.2GHz and the other 4 energy-saving cores are clocked at 1.7GHz.The Kirin 710a is equipped with 4 Cortex-A73 high-performance cores and 4 Cortex-A53 energy-saving cores.Both are equipped with Mali-G51 MP4 GPU, but there may be slight differences due to different processes and frequency settings.

To sum up, the Kirin 710A is a castrated version of the Kirin 710, and its performance is much worse.But it is a newly launched chip after all. Currently, many low-end Huawei mobile phones are using the Kirin 710A chip. Although the performance is not strong, it can still bring a smooth experience to users.
