Despite the company now switching to a 9-core CPU cluster instead of an 8-core cluster present in the Kirin 9020 , the latest silicon is unbelievably slow in both single-threaded and multi-threaded workloads, with top-end silicon like the A19 Pro, Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 , and Dimensity 9500 up to a whopping 346 percent faster when we start comparing the numbers.

Older-generation lithography is preventing the Kirin 9030 and Huawei from being in the same performance conversation as the A19 Pro, Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, and Dimensity 9500

On Geekbench 6, we spotted that the Kirin 9030 sport
