Huawei is soon expected to launch the Mate 70 series smartphones. While their details have been scarce compared to previous launches, a new leak has revealed some design and hardware changes for the top-tier Mate 70 Pro smartphone. 

The most notable change appears to be on the rear of the phone. As per a render shared by TechBoilers, the phone seems to retain the signature circular camera module of the Mate 60 Pro, but with a thicker outer glass ring. 

The LED flash has been relocated to the bottom of the ring, accompanied by a new inscription: “AI-DC.” This inscription could mean AI-powered image processing for the camera system.

Under the hood, the leak suggests the Mate 70 Pro will be powered by a new Kirin 9100 chipset. The details of this SoC are fairly scarce at the moment, but we can expect it to offer better performance and efficiency compared to the Kirin 9000S found in the Mate 60 Pro.

The leak also details changes to the camera system. The main sensor on the Mate 70 Pro is rumored to be a 60MP unit, a bump from the 50MP sensor on the Mate 60 Pro. The 12MP ultrawide sensor and the 48MP 5x periscope telephoto lens appear to remain unchanged based on the leak.

On the front of the phone, the phone is expected to feature a 48MP sensor, replacing the 32MP unit on the Mate 60 Pro. There will also be a 3D ToF sensor for advanced facial recognition.

It’s important to note that these are just leaks, and Huawei has yet to officially confirm any details about the Mate 70 series. But if the details hold true, what do you think—are these changes enough to compete with the latest flagships from other manufacturers remains to be seen?
