Under the hood, the device has the same powerful HiSilicon Kirin 960 octa -
core SoC which powers the Huawei Mate 9, with four Cortex A73
cores clocked at 2.4 GHz frequency and four Cortex A53
efficiency cores running at 1.8 GHz frequency.
Surge S2 will have an Octa -
core setup with four high - performance ARM Cortex A73
cores clocked at 2.2 GHz and four
efficiency cores of ARM Cortex A53
cores clocked at 1.8 GHz.
If you subtract out the
efficiency gains from removing 32 - bit support, you're left with maybe very roughly a 15 % improvement in CPU IPC for the big
cores, assuming equivalent
clocks to the A10.
The i7 has four
cores versus two in previous generation, and its
clock speed can be optimized for either top performance when tasks demand it or greater
efficiency when battery life is most important.
The newest CPUs double the physical
cores to four and lowers the base
clock speed for enhanced
efficiency, but with even faster turbo speeds.
The four performance
cores are
clocked at a lofty 2.8 GHz, while the four
efficiency cores are
