Huawei has quietly unveiled the Pura 70 Satellite SMS Edition- a new flagship priced significantly higher than its predecessor, yet little variance over these six months since then. The biggest differences lie within the changes associated with the name of the device and confirmation that it contains a new Kirin 9010E chipset. But after considering the detailed specs of this chipset, is quite easy to formulate an opinion that Kirin 9010E does not have much variation from the ones present inside Huawei’s high-end Pura 70 models probably named Kirin 9010.
More About the Kirin 9010E and Pura 70
The Kirin 9010E and Kirin 9010 share the same 12-core CPU cluster, albeit with some variations. Both feature an 8-core CPU configuration, but applications recognize them as having 12 cores due to hyperthreading. These include two high-performance TaiShan cores running at 2.19GHz, six performance cores running at 2.18Ghz and four low-power CPU sections clocked up to a maximum of 1.55GHZ on each core for peak power savings efficiency. The only difference is that the high-performance cores have a slightly lower clock speed in the Kirin 9010E compared to its counterpart from Hisilicon.
The new chipset also comes with Huawei’s self-developed Maleoon 910 GPU, clocking at 750MHz. This silicon is not the only model that was brought by the company, there’s also a Kirin 9010L that powers on Nova 12 Ultra Star Edition. Interestingly, a recent Pura 70 Ultra teardown showed that the Kirin 9010 and other two chipsets are produced with SMIC’s same set of manufacturing processes on one classic TSMC-like N7 tape out.
In summary, the Pura 70 Satellite SMS Edition is basically a new base flagship from Huawei and one that offers numerous upgrades over its entry-level counterpart. For example, it comes with two-way satellite communication support which is a huge step up. It also runs on an improved chipset over the Kirin 9000S, which fuels the standard skin of Purell. This is a step up from prior versions of the Pura 70 Satellite SMS Edition, bringing together more advanced technology with better connectivity options for an overall stronger user experience.
