The new model’s CPU performance outperformed the Snapdragon 888, although it did not quite match up to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 and Snapdragon 8+, according to the same report from AnTuTu.

I think this is the most impressive part considering that the snapdragon 888 is a 5nm chip. I guess the kirin 9000s is made with SMIC n+2 process or something even more advance.

    Um, no. If they’re still using Android then they’re only adding to the monopoly. The only way your comment would be true is if Huawei made their own operating system that wasn’t based off Android, and frankly nothing that has actually tried to kill Android has ever worked, not even Samsung’s attempt.

      Huawei’s appstore took off in a lot countries. That happened only thanks to the US government.

        Does their app store run on Android? Then it doesn’t really matter, it’s not toppling Android because it’s using Android. Samsung has an app store too, and Motorola, guess what? They all run on Android. What you’re wanting is something like Samsung’s Tizen, which was it’s own OS outside of Android. If you are specifically calling out the Play store, then that’s a completely different scenario.

          I didn’t say toppling Android. Why on earth would that be a good thing? It’s breaking Google’s control over Android, which is great.

            Google owns Android, there’s no “breaking control” over Android from the company that created and maintains the operating system.

                  Nothing prevents you or anyone else from forking Android. It is not owned by anyone.

                    Google owns it, as in Google gets the last say in what goes into mainline AOSP code. The code is open source but they decide what next Android release is going to be. You can submit a PR, they decide if it gets merged or not.

                    If anyone wants to make independent modifications over it, they can fork it, because the license permits it. Now the fork is not owned by Google. But Google owns the main android repository.

                    I literally gave your proof that Google owns Android… You’re clearly not willing to accept that simple fact. You can fork it, go ahead, but Google still owns it, you’re never gonna get away from that fact.
