In case some of you weren’t aware, Huawei designs their own processors, and their upcoming Mulan handset will be their first octa-core offering. What’s interesting though is that the Chinese phone maker claims that the Huawei Kirin 920, the processor that will run under the hood of the Mulan, will be even faster than the Snapdragon 805! Wow!

The Kirin 920 will be comprised of 4 low power Cortex A7 cores clocked between 1.3GHz to 1.6GHz, These cores will be paired with a set of 4 high performance Cortex A15 cores to complete the octa-core setup. As for graphics, the Kirin 920 will have the powerful Mali T628, which should deliver near console quality performance.

While Huawei’s claims are certainly very hype-worthy, it should be noted that there aren’t any benchmarks to prove it yet. Heck, Huawei themselves admit that the Kirin 920 isn’t even a finished product yet. At least they plan to optimize it further before it’s released aboard the Mulan.
