AnTuTu has released its latest rankings for the most favorably reviewed smartphones of March 2025, and Huawei’s Mate 70 Pro+ has emerged at the top. The device which was launched last in November 2024 managed to garner an impressive approval score of 99.41%.
But it’s not flying solo on the leaderboard. The Mate 70 Pro—another entry from the same lineup—also made it into the top five, landing in third place with a 99.17% user satisfaction rating. The strong showing of both variants shows Huawei’s strategy to double down on in-house hardware and software is paying off, at least on home turf in China.
Huawei’s made-in-China effort is paying off
The Mate 70 is a 100% made-in-China phone which includes the self-developed Kirin 9020 chip and homegrown Hongmeng OS (or HarmonyOS NEXT). The device has an equally good camera setup along with other premium features like a titanium alloy frame, stereo speakers, satellite messaging, and a 5700mAh battery with 100W wired and 80W wireless charging support.
Second place goes to the Honor Magic 7 RSR Porsche Design Edition, which shares the same customer rating as the Mate 70 Pro (99.17%) but takes the runner-up spot on AnTuTu’s list. The foldable Magic V2 follows at number four with a 97.45% rating, and the Magic 6 Ultimate Edition rounds out the top five at 97.07%, backed by its unique design and camera performance.
The lower half of the top ten includes the Xiaomi 15 Ultra at sixth place (96.54%), OPPO Find N3 (95.48%), OPPO Find X7 Ultra (94.63%), Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus (94.12%), and the standard Xiaomi 15 at number ten with a 94.03% rating.
What’s surprising though is the complete absence of Apple from the list. Neither the base nor Pro iPhone 16 models made it to the top ten list. Apple is facing stiff competition from Huawei in China and HarmonyOS has already surpassed iOS in local user base. With the latest developments, Apple is now in a more precarious position.
