K3V2
The first well known product of HiSilicon is the K3V2 used in Huawei Ascend D Quad XL (U9510) smartphones and Huawei MediaPad 10 FHD7 tablets. This chipset is based on the ARM Cortex-A9 MPCore fabbed at 40 nm and uses a 16 core Vivante GC4000 GPU. The SoC support LPDDR2-1066, but actual products are found with LPDDR-900 instead for lower power consumption.
K3V2E
This is a revised version of K3V2 SoC with improved support of Intel baseband. The SoC support LPDDR2-1066, but actual products are found with LPDDR-900 instead for lower power consumption.
