recently exposed the chip specifications of Huawei’s nova9 series of smartphones. This series of machines will use the 4G version of the Snapdragon 778G chip. Although the Snapdragon 778G chip has a built-in 5G baseband, due to the lack of RF chips and other components, Huawei still has no way to support 5G networks on its own smartphones; what's interesting is that before this, Honor launched the world's first Snapdragon 778G smartphone, the Honor 50 series, which supports 5G networks.
Snapdragon 778G is a mid-range chip launched by Qualcomm this year. This chip uses the same A78 core design as the Snapdragon 888 chip, but due to the backward process, This chip only has two A78 cores built in, while the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chip is built with one X1 super core and three A78 cores, so Snapdragon 778 G can also be regarded as a "low version" of Snapdragon. Long 888 chip, after all, it lacks an X1 super core and another A78 core.
For daily use, the Snapdragon 778G chip can fully meet most of the needs of consumers; whether it is game performance or software performance, this chip has reached a relatively high level in the industry. After all, there are two large cores of A78 blessing. In addition, due to the lack of two high-performance cores, the heat generation of the chip is greatly reduced, and the energy consumption is better than the control.
At present, the industry still has a high-performance Snapdragon 7 series chip-Snapdragon 780G. Although the performance of this chip is relatively strong, it uses 4 A78 cores.Therefore, the heat control is not optimistic, and the performance ratio of this chip is not very good; if not unexpected, Qualcomm is likely to stop production of Snapdragon 780G and switch to mass production of Snapdragon 778G chips; from major mobile phones From the manufacturer's chip strategy, the Snapdragon 778G will obviously be more popular.
As for the Huawei nova9 series mobile phones equipped with the Snapdragon 778G 4G version, the price may not be too high-Huawei nova series is positioned in the mid-range mobile phone market, and the starting price may be more than 2000. It is between three thousand yuan, so the price of buying a machine with the Snapdragon 778G chip is still very good. The current price of Huawei Nova series smartphones equipped with Kirin chips is relatively expensive, and Xiaozhai does not recommend buying it.
It is reported that Huawei's nova9 series will be released later this month, and sales will begin at the end of the month; if you have a demand for 5G networks, then the Honor 50 series smartphones that also carry the Snapdragon 778G chip may be good According to the feedback from the offline market, the sales volume of the Honor 50 series machines after the launch is quite good, which makes the share of Honor mobile phones in the domestic market reach a relatively high level.
As Huawei’s mid-range smartphones, Huawei’s nova9 series will be pre-installed with the HarmonyOS 2.1 operating system, which will enhance the product competitiveness of this series of machines; It is better than Android phones, but the lack of software ecology is still the shortcoming of the system. I hope that Huawei can promote the rapid development of Hongmeng Software.
