I don't think the CPU performance is down to optimization. The 4 custom Taishan performance cores having hyper threading is probably why. The Kirin 9000S has 8 cores / 12 threads, which is why the multi-core score is so high.
The GPU drivers definitely aren't ready yet; it can't render Genshin Impact correctly. It's not an ARM Mali reference design; it's Huawei own Maleoon 910. The only things from ARM are the Cortex-A510 efficiency cores, and the instruction set.
Yeah I'm positive that Huawei went their own direction with the GPU because of how bad Mali has been lately, but getting the drivers to work will be a huge task
