There are two smartphone products worth paying attention to in the second half of the year, one is Apple's iPhone 16 series, and the other is Huawei's Mate70 series. Nowadays, there is increasing news about the Huawei Mate 70 series. Previous leaks claimed that the Huawei Mate 70 series would be equipped with a new Kirin processor and preinstalled with a pure-blooded version of HarmonyOS. Now media reports claim that the hardware configuration of the Huawei Mate 70 series is basically finalized.

First, on August 29, 2023, the Huawei Mate 60 series was launched through the Vanguard program, offering multiple models with a starting price of 5,499 yuan, equipped with the returning Kirin chip, a new generation of Kunlun glass, and support for satellite communication technology. To this day, the Huawei Mate 60 series remains one of the most popular domestic flagship models, and many netizens are also full of expectations for its iterative products.

Yu Chengdong revealed at the HDC 2024 Huawei Developer Conference that the Huawei Mate 70 series will be released in the fourth quarter of this year (October to December) and will be the first to ship with the official version of HarmonyOS NEXT.

And just recently, a blogger revealed that a new flagship phone will land with a single-framework self-developed OS + a new generation of self-developed 5G SoC + 50MP domestic super-large base CIS.

Judging from the three pieces of information of "new flagship at the end of the year, single-framework self-developed OS, and new-generation self-developed 5G SOC", this phone is expected to be the Huawei Mate 70 series, corresponding to the HarmonyOS NEXT system and the new generation of HiSilicon Kirin 5G SoC.

As for the 50MP domestic super-large base CIS, it is expected to be OmniVision's super-large base CMOS image sensor. Earlier leaks revealed that Huawei tested OV50H and OV50K in the Mate 70 series.

In addition, the blogger mentioned that there is another more heavyweight product, whose industrial difficulty "daunts competitors."

Although the yield rate is extremely low at this stage, the plan is to prepare for mass production and is currently under attack.

It is worth mentioning that in the comment section, the blogger's response to netizens also revealed two pieces of information.

One is that Xiaomi currently does not have a product called MIX5, and the other is that WeChat is already adapting to the HarmonyOS NEXT consumer version.

In addition, combining recent news from multiple sources, the Mate 70 series continues to use a circular lens module design but incorporates new elements, making the appearance more recognizable and business-like. The screen continues to use a three-punch hole shape.

By the way, some bloggers have also mentioned a titanium metal version, which will showcase different product grades. It is expected that titanium metal will be exclusive to the Huawei Mate 70 Pro+, while the RS Master Edition will still use ceramic craftsmanship.

If the leaks are accurate, the Mate 70 series will be Huawei's first model to use titanium metal.

It is understood that titanium metal is widely used in aerospace, medical, and high-end sports equipment due to its unique physical and chemical properties, as titanium metal is lightweight, high in strength, and corrosion-resistant.

It is expected that there will be four models in the entire series, of which three models will adopt a micro-curved OLED screen, and there will also be a straight screen version, which is expected to be used in the standard edition. The screen mainly focuses on 1.5K resolution.

If there are no unexpected circumstances, the Mate 70 series will be the first to come pre-installed with the official version of HarmonyOS NEXT, showcasing the complete version of pure-blooded HarmonyOS.

According to Yu Chengdong, HarmonyOS NEXT can achieve a 30% increase in overall performance and a 20% reduction in power consumption.

With the support of pure-blooded HarmonyOS, the performance of the Huawei Mate 70 series will be more fully released, and the smoothness will also be more outstanding.

As for other leaks regarding the Mate 70 series, there are actually quite a few, but most of them are somewhat unfounded.

For example, replacing the larger X-axis linear motor, significantly narrowing the screen bezels, and improving the issue of slight light leakage and color cast at the edges...

Of course, but whenever there are leaks, there are uncertainties, and during the engineering prototype testing phase, there are many variables.

It is expected that by August, most of the information will be finalized, and substantial and accurate information will emerge.

In addition, according to digital bloggers, the release date of the Huawei Mate 70 series may be around the end of September, but the specific release date will depend on the readiness of Huawei's software and hardware teams.

Some netizens speculate that Huawei may launch the Vanguard program at the end of September and officially start selling and shipping in early October. This speculation echoes the statements made by Yu Chengdong, the executive director of Huawei, at the Huawei Developer Conference. Yu Chengdong said that HarmonyOS Next will be officially commercialized in the fourth quarter, and the Huawei Mate 70 series will be the first model to ship with this new system.

Compared to the Huawei Mate 60 series released on August 29 last year, the release date of the Mate 70 series seems to have been delayed and is expected to meet consumers in the fourth quarter.

In addition, Mingmei Unlimited also wants to mention that, according to Mingmei Unlimited's understanding, the supply situation of the Huawei Pura 70 series has improved significantly, and the price increases for all versions through third-party channels have completely disappeared, with the highest discount even reaching 1,400 yuan. Some media speculate that the price loosening of the Huawei Pura 70 series may be related not only to supply factors but also to the upcoming release of the Mate 70 series.

Finally, in summary, the Huawei Mate70 series exhibits significant innovation and progress in design, performance, photography, and communication technology, not only satisfying users' pursuit of aesthetics but also achieving a qualitative leap in technology. Whether it's users pursuing an ultimate business experience or digital enthusiasts keen on exploring cutting-edge technology, the Huawei Mate70 series will be a flagship choice worth looking forward to in the second half of 2024. Its exploration of 5.5G communication and satellite communication technology has set a new benchmark for the future mobile communication field.

Alright, in conclusion, as one of the three top new phones in the mobile phone industry this year, the Huawei Mate 70 series will definitely be hot when it is released.

Although it is estimated that it will not be able to compete head-to-head with Apple's iPhone 16 series this year, it will collide with the first batch of Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 / Dimensity 9400 new phones and will also stage an exciting flagship phone battle.

At this moment, I hope that Huawei can stock up more at that time and avoid a situation where it is difficult to find a phone like the Mate 60 series last year.

You know, the price of Maotai has recently collapsed, and "electronic Maotai" had better not be too firm...
