The latest generation of flagship smartphones are launching with high end chips like the Dimensity 9400 and Snapdragon 8 Elite. However, there is another trend that is becoming more common with premium phones. For enhanced security, flagship phones are now featuring ultrasonic fingerprint scanners and it seems Huawei’s Mate 70 series could be one of them as well.
Huawei Mate 70 Series Tipped With Ultrasonic Fingerprint Scanner
The news arrives from known tipster Smart Pikachu on Weibo. The leak claims that the Chinese tech giant’s upcoming Mate 70 series will use an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, similar to the recently unveiled OnePlus 13. Smart Pikachu claims that the Huawei Mate 70 lineup will pack this technology for enhanced security. The online post further claims that upcoming Ultra model flagships (outside of Huawei smartphones) are expected to debut next year with Qualcomm’s ultrasonic fingerprint sensors.
To recall, there are plenty of Ultra series models that are expected to launch in the coming months. This includes the Oppo Find X8 Ultra, Xiaomi 15 Ultra, Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra, and Vivo X200 Ultra. There are more Ultra branded phones, which may likely support this technology. This is all the information that was shared on the Weibo post. Just recently, the camera layout of the Mate 70 series was revealed in a new leak.
There are also rumors that the Mate 70 may be unveiled with dual OS options. The primary operating system is the new HarmonyOS Next, while the secondary one may have Android support. Since the HarmonyOS Next is a major upgrade that has Huawei finally moving away from Android, it would make sense that it keeps some form of support for the more popular Android platform. This is all the information we have at the moment, so stay tuned for more updates.
