The Huawei Mate 70 collection launched with a mysterious new chipset – the Kirin 9020. Huawei hasn’t revealed a lot about it, so folks have needed to do their very own digging.
Blogger Yang Changshun Repairman opened up a Huawei Mate 70 RS Final and desoldered the chipset. The service board is bigger and thicker than earlier Kirin 9000 chips, however that doesn’t reveal a lot concerning the silicon inside.

From what we all know to date, the Kirin 9020 has an 8-core, 12-thread CPU with one 2.5GHz core, three 2.15GHz cores and 4 1.6GHz cores (the final 4 are single-threaded). The GPU is a Maleoon 920 working at 840MHz.
Shifting away from the chipset, the Mate 70 collection apparently makes use of a cloth known as titanium basalt to enhance the drop resistance of the telephones. You may see the drop exams on this BiliBili video. Moreover, Huawei switched to second-gen Kunlun glass, which has double the drop resistance of the first-gen.
