Yes, but Cortex-A7 (the big core of MP1) is a 32-bit core, unlike Cortex-A35.

Nonetheless, the 64-bit Cortex-A35 is not the 64-bit replacement for Cortex-A7, but for the smaller core Cortex-A5, so it is actually slower than Cortex-A7 at the same clock frequency.

Cortex-A53, then Cortex-A55, were the 64-bit replacements for Cortex-A7.
