Kirin 990 5G and 4G are two separate chips


Kirin 990 4G is significantly smaller

The Kirin 990 5G was finally announced by CEO Richard Yu today and it is a 10.3 billion transistor three CPU cluster SoC with an integrated 5G. Future phones, including the Mate 30 Pro 5G will use it. A Huawei executive confirmed to Fudzilla  that the 4G version of the chip is not merely the same SoC with 5G bit disabled.
