Most phones do not have built-in hardware viewers and the ability to get information about the processor. However, simple free applications available in Play Market will help this. It may also be interesting: how to find out which processor on a computer or laptop.
How to see the model and the discharge of the processor, the number of its nuclei on Android
A lot of free applications are available in Play Market for information about the characteristics of the Android phone. For the purpose of viewing information about SOC, I recommend using AIDA64 or CPU-Z, available for free at the Play Market App.
To view information about the processor model in AIDA64:
- Run the application and go to the CPU (CPU, CPU) item.
- In the top of the line you will see the "Model SOC" item - this is the model of your processor.
- Here you will find information on the number of the CPU cores, the types of these nuclei, the processor processor and the discharge of the processor (in the "Instructions" paragraph.
In addition, the program displays information about the range of supported frequency and the current frequency of the processor: do not be surprised that it is below the maximum - this is good, so the system saves battery power when high performance is required.
The CPU-Z application processor information you see on the first screen on the SoC tab. The processor model will be displayed at the top, below, in Cores, the number of nuclei. Here are the frequencies, the technological process and the GPU model (graphics accelerator) of your Android phone.
The proximity of the processor is not displayed, but we can recognize it with an indirect method: go to the "System" tab and pay attention to the Kernel Architecture (kernel architecture). If there is "AARCH64" there, we have a 64-bit system, and therefore 64-bit processor.

Additionally, I note that it makes sense to see other tabs in the considered applications: it is possible that you can find useful and interesting information for yourself.
