IT Home reported on December 25 that Huawei will release the nova 12 series of mobile phones on December 26, of which nova 12 Pro was exposed to be equipped with Kirin 8000 processor, and nova 12 Ultra was exposed to be equipped with Kirin 9000SL.
As can be seen from the configuration infographic circulating on the Internet, the Kirin 9000SL adopts a 2×2.35GHz large core + 4×2.15GHz mid-core + 3×1.53GHz small core design.
