We have created a comprehensive comparison of the recently released
Kirin 970 vs A17 Pro SoCs by
Hisilicon and Apple
respectively. We've now weighed the advantages and disadvantages of these
8-core
and 6-core CPUs on the basis of their Geekbench, Antutu and
3DMark benchmarks with their technical specifications.
