In September, Huawei introduced the world\u2019s first Kirin AI processor\u200a\u2014\u200aKirin 970\u200a\u2014\u200aand on October 16 unveiled the first smartphone to feature this chipset\u200a- the HUAWEI Mate 10 in Munich.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What makes Kirin 970 unique? Huawei integrated a Neural Network Processing Unit (NPU) into its architecture. The development of Kirin 970 is a result of Huawei\u2019s intense focus on improving user experience through market research, product innovation, and advancements in technology.
Dedicated NPU to process AI commands<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Computing has changed over the past 10 years, shifting from \u201cleft brain\u201d to \u201cright brain\u201d to create more intelligent experiences. The traditional CPU\/GPU\/DSP computing architecture is not able to meet the demand for today\u2019s computing performance. The HUAWEI Mate 10 and HUAWEI Mate 10 Pro are Huawei\u2019s first devices to ship with its new processor, Kirin 970. This breakthrough chipset uses the most power-efficient computing architecture, while integrating a standalone Neural Network Processing Unit (NPU). Kirin 970 uses an advanced 10nm process to integrate 5.5 billion transistors within an area of just one square centimeter, dramatically improving computing performance to deliver both rapid response and a smooth experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kirin 970 breaks through existing bottlenecks in mobile hardware, effectively redefining the collaborative relationship between devices and the cloud. Comprised of Huawei\u2019s innovative HiAI mobile computing architecture (4 x ARM Cortex-A73 2.5GHz\/A53 1.5GHz CPU and a first-to-market 12-core Mali G72 GPU) and an NPU, Kirin 970 enables seamless interoperation between processing units. Compared with a CPU\/GPU combination, the NPU\u2019s data processing capabilities in AI scenarios such as image recognition deliver up to 25x the performance with 50x greater efficiency. It also processes 2,000 images per minute, a processing speed that is faster than any other chip on the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As we enter the age of intelligence, AI is no longer a virtual concept but something that intertwines with our daily life. AI can enhance user experience, provide valuable services and improve product performance. With on-device AI, Kirin 970 provides users with greater individual intelligence. It thoroughly understands each user and satisfies the demand for personalized and real-time AI experiences, while providing private data protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Intelligent Speed for Born Fast, Stay Fast
The HUAWEI Mate 10 and HUAWEI Mate 10 Pro take the \u201cBorn Fast, Stay Fast\u201d promise to a new dimension. Leveraging AI-powered Battery Management, the devices improve memory allocation utilization, using different mechanisms such as: CPU Resource Allocation and Management, Run-time Memory Management, IO Resource Management, Storage Management and Defragmentation and Battery Management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The new HUAWEI Mate Series\u2019 ability to understand behaviors empowers it to operate at peak performance levels. By knowing how apps are used, when they\u2019re used and what the system needs to do to run them at efficiency, Huawei reduced abnormal app launch rates by 80 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Intelligent Speed of the world\u2019s fastest 4.5G Experience
The HUAWEI Mate 10 and HUAWEI Mate 10 Pro are the world\u2019s fastest smartphones, supporting LTE Cat.16 and LTE Cat.18 D connections, respectively. In fact, it only requires a few seconds to load and play 4K online video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For continuous connectivity, the HUAWEI Mate 10 Series features Dual 4G SIM support. The HUAWEI Mate 10 and HUAWEI Mate 10 Pro\u2019s primary and secondary SIM cards support 20 LTE frequency bands and VoLTE high-resolution calls. Both SIM cards can support VoLTE calls and Internet services simultaneously. With a dual VoLTE connection, users have stronger coverage across wider ranges, making one HUAWEI Mate 10 or HUAWEI Mate 10 Pro equal to two 4G phones.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
