AnTuTu 11
The AnTuTu Benchmark measures CPU, GPU, RAM, and I/O performance in different scenarios
So, 12 Logical Cores on SMT. Config on Hardware Cores is 8 Cores: 1x Taishan V121 @2.3GHz, 3x Taishan V121 @2.18GHz, 4x Cortex A510 @1.55GHz.
Kirin 9010 is codenamed Charlotte. Upcoming Kirin X90 is codenamed Charlotte Pro with 10 Hardware Cores with 16 Logical Cores on SMT focused on HarmonyOS Laptop and Desktops.

Correction (Based on Rumors)
Kirin X90 Charlotte Pro is rumored to remove Cortex A510 cores in favor of Taishan Small Cores achieving 20 Logical Cores via SMT

The 9000s was about the M1 category in power consumption. They probably went with a 12-core design with lower clock speeds and, through the use of smart management, they could lower the power consumption. Having 6 A510 cores for things like social media is plenty.

Its actually a hyper threading like intel technology

Just 7 nm for 1K $? Other companies are giving 3-4 nm processors for less than 1K $.

It's because they don't have the equipment or the tech to manufacture chips at 5nm and smaller. They were banned from ever getting those pieces of equipment and fabrication machines capable of manufacturing 5nm and smaller chips.

They are extracting stone milk, almost 1M with just 7nm.

Judging from the current scenario, it seems like what Huawei is aiming for is to attain comparable performance to the Kirin 9000s, but with lower power consumption.
The inclusion of 12 cores is particularly intriguing: two Taishan v121s at 2.3 GHz, four Taishan v121s at 1.55 GHz, and six Cortex A510 cores at 2.18 GHz. Essentially, this implies a 6 + 6 power/efficiency core configuration, something never seen before in the market.

I'm hoping that other manufacturers will adopt hyperthreading in the near future.
