Igeekphone news on November 15, 2024, the last flagship – Huawei Mate 70 series has been confirmed to be officially released on November 26.
What does the new machine look like, what upgrades are available in the configuration, and what changes will be made to the processor and system? Let’s take a look at what we know.
From the current information circulating, the Mate 70 series will have four models, including Mate 70, Mate 70 Pro, Mate 70 Pro+ and Mate 70 RS Extraordinary Master Edition.
The first is appearance. According to the network information, the camera module of the Mate 70 series will be closer to the Mate 50 series of the previous generation. That is, three cameras and one sensor, arranged symmetrically in a large circular module. In the middle is a flash with the XMAGE logo printed on it.
In addition, this time the Mate 70 series camera module edge and the back of the fuselage will most likely adopt a smoother transition, no longer like the Mate 50 series is easy to accumulate dust. RS Extraordinary Master version continues to use the “octagon” design, with the previous generation of design language to maintain unity.
Like all flagship machines, the screen bezel of the Huawei Mate 70 series will be further narrowed, and it is expected to be standard with a 1.5K 120Hz LTPO screen.
But the difference is that the standard version will use a single hole, straight screen design, only support 2D face unlock; The Pro, Pro+ and RS Extraordinary Master versions will use three digging holes, equal depth four curved screen design, support 3D face unlock.
It should be noted that the fingerprint unlocking method of Mate 70 series is no longer a fingerprint under the screen, but a side fingerprint, which has been confirmed by the mobile phone case exposed online. The reason for this change is not yet known.
According to the news, Mate 70, 70 Pro is expected to still use aluminum alloy frame, and 70 Pro+ will exclusive titanium alloy frame, the texture will be greatly improved, RS extraordinary master version is still ceramic process.
In terms of images. Huawei Mate 70 series will be equipped with 50 million pixels of variable aperture outsole main camera, Pro and above models will also be equipped with 48 million pixels of 3.5 times latent telephoto (standard version is 12 million pixels of 5 times latent telephoto), with 12 million pixels of ultra-wide Angle lens (70 RS extraordinary master for 40 million pixels of ultra-wide Angle).
According to the supply chain news, the Mate 70 series standard edition uses the OV50H sensor of the Howe Group, and the Pro and above high configuration master camera sensors are provided by SONY. In addition, Huawei is likely to introduce end-to-end AI capabilities on the Mate 70 series, involving video, real-time translation and text summary.
Battery capacity will also be further increased, it is expected that the Mate 70 Pro will be equipped with more than 5500mAh high-density silicon battery (to be confirmed).
The processor is the part that people are most concerned about. It is understood that the Mate 70 series will be equipped with a new generation of Kirin processors (may be called Kirin 9100). In addition to the performance of the new Kirin processor will be significantly improved, the key point is also the reduction of energy consumption, which is expected to further reduce the heat of the mobile phone and improve the battery life.
Last year’s Kirin 9000S is the first generation of products after the return, all aspects are not mature enough, and we have seen a series of derivative versions.
After a year of iteration, the new Kirin processor is expected to make significant progress in maturity and perfection. Of course, what level of final performance can be achieved, and how the heat consumption control is, it is worth paying attention to.
In the system part, Huawei Mate 70 series will be launched with HarmonyOS NEXT, which is the first mobile phone pre-installed with pure blood HarmonyOS under Huawei flag, marking the full stack self-developed system will be officially commercially available. At that time, the Hongmeng version of wechat is also expected to be officially launched.
Previous media reports said that it was learned from relevant people in the supply chain that the current Huawei Mate 70 series is speeding up production, and the planned production number of some parts in November increased by about 50% compared with the Mate 60 in the same period. It is expected that this early generation should not be as difficult to grab as the Mate 60 series.
Finally, it’s worth looking at the price. Price increases are the main theme of flagship machines of various brands this year, millet 15 has been raised from 3999 yuan last year to 4499 yuan. So what will be the price of Huawei’s new Mate 70? Is it still on sale from 5499/6499?
