Huawei Nova Official: The World’s First 64 Bit Processor engraved in 16 nm via FinFET

In anticipation of the 2015 MWC, which will open in a few days, Huawei has just lifted the veil on its latest processor, the Huawei Nova, the world’s first 64 Bit processor engraved in 16 nanometers using FinFET technology. Based on an ARM64 architecture, it supports GSM /UMTS/LTE FDD/LTE TDD networks and has 67% higher energy efficiency than its competitors while offering better performance.

Huawei announces its latest processor a few days before the MWC.

As the company points out, the new Huawei Nova processor will provide users with the “best mobile experience” through the multitude of networks supported on a single chip. Thanks to its very high energy efficiency, it will also allow us to offer a much better autonomy to our smartphones.

Knowing Huawei’s position on Quad HD screens, we already know that its next high-end will be equipped with Full HD screens. Once this processor is on board, the Chinese manufacturer’s future terminals should be able to offer an exceptional range. This is therefore a major innovation in the field of mobile processors, to be placed in the same category as the Samsung Exynos 7 Octa chip engraved in 14 nm and announced last week.

This new chip will, of course, be part of the festivities of the MWC 2015 which will open its doors next Monday. It should be noted that Huawei also took the opportunity to announce the very first L-band antenna, both compatible Ultra Wide Band (UWB) and multi-band. This will support all major frequency bands 800 / 900 / 1800 / 2100 / 2600 MHz and even that of 1500 MHz.

New products that are likely to be at the heart of the firm’s next high-end. We should probably learn more in the next few days.
