Despite Huawei’s decision to remain silent on the P70, the MateBook X Pro 2024 truly stands out as a laptop deserving of attention.

The device supports 140W fast charging and comes with Intel’s latest-gen Core Ultra processor, all packed within a body weighing less than 1 kg. For more details on the MateBook X Pro 2024 specs, you can refer to our previous article.

Huawei P70 Series Roundup: Specs, Camera, & More

Sean — Fri, 05 Apr 2024 11:33:59 +0000

Huawei was gearing up to unveil its latest Huawei P70 series of flagship smartphones this week. But it appears that the launch event was reportedly canceled. So while the release may have been pushed back, here’s a detailed roundup breaking down the specs, design, pricing, and more regarding the upcoming devices.

Huawei P70 Series: Design & Display

The next-gen P70 series features the Chinese tech giant’s “camera Deco” layout on the rear. It features a triangular camera island that houses the camera sensors. This design was primarily seen for the Huawei P70 Pro Art model, but is believed to be uniform across the entire lineup. For those unaware, the series consists of the Huawei P70, P70 Pro, P70 Pro+, and the P70 Pro Art. Overall, all four phones will get a design refresh over their predecessors.

On the front, the base model is expected to sport a 6.59-inch LTPO OLED display, while the three higher end variants are rumored to sport a taller 6.76-inch LTPO OLED panel. These panels could be sourced from Chinese OLED display makers like BOE, CSOT, Visionox, and Tianma. All four models will likely offer curved edges, 1.5K resolution, and a higher refresh rate. The panel reportedly has a punch hole cutout for the selfie shooter and house an in-display fingerprint scanner as well.

Huawei P70 Series: Specs

Under the hood, the Huawei P70 series is expected to feature the Kirinm 9000S chipset. However, the performance might not be the same across all models. In a recent GeekBench sighting, it was revealed that the ALT-AL10 and ALT-AL80 are equipped with the Kirin 9000S. However, the higher-end P70 Pro+ and P70 Pro Art may feature a faster chipset. The more expensive models may feature an entirely new Kirin processor since they have a different core structure and clock speeds. But there’s a chance that these might just be refreshed or overclocked versions of the existing Kirin 9000S.

All four models will likely offer at least 12GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. But the P70 Pro+ and P70 Pro Art could go up to 16GB RAM with 512GB of storage as well. The base model might be powered by a 5,000mAh battery pack, while the P70 Pro may feature a larger 5,200mAh cell. The other two versions feature a 5,100mAh battery. These smartphones could bring support for 88W wired fast charging. However, the vanilla P70 tops out at 50W wireless fast charging and the rest come with 80W wireless fast charging. Another notable feature arriving on the P70 lineup is the satellite communication technology.

Huawei P70 Pro: Camera

For photography, the lineup is believed to offer a triple camera setup on the rear. The primary camera is a 50-megapixel OV50H sensor that features a 1/1.3-inch size. This sensor could also arrive with the P70 Pro model as well. On the other hand, the P70 Pro+ and P70 Pro Art will arrive with the 50-megapixel Sony IMX989 primary shooter that has a 1-inch sensor size.

The last two cameras are likely a 50-megapixel ultra-wide angle lens and a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto shooter that offers 4x optical zoom. For video calls and selfies, the front may pack a 13-megapixel camera that has a 1/2.36-inch sensor size.

Huawei P70 series launch event reportedly canceled

Soumyakanti — Wed, 03 Apr 2024 16:16:49 +0000

Huawei’s plans for the P70 series launch have become shrouded in mystery following the reported cancellation of a press conference. Industry insiders suggest the phones could skip the traditional launch event altogether and join a “Pioneer Program” instead, potentially going on sale as early as today.

This news comes after Weibo tipster Bad Review Emperor sparked speculation by posting, “The press conference was suddenly canceled, and tickets were refunded to the media? What happened?” on social media.

There are also reports that authorized Huawei stores have begun accepting blind orders for the P70 series. While the official release timing remains unclear, this suggests the phones could be available very soon.

Leaks regarding the P70 series paint a picture of powerful hardware and innovative features. The recent Geekbench listings suggest that the Kirin 9000S chipset is expected to power the devices, with potentially different clock speeds for standard and high-end models. Both variations might boast stunning displays – a roughly 6.58-inch or 6.8-inch 2.5D 1.5K LTPO panel with a captivating quad-curved design.

On the camera front, rumors point towards either the OV50H or IMX989 sensor, both featuring a physical variable aperture. A 50MP ultra-wide-angle lens and a 50MP 4x periscope telephoto lens could round out the impressive camera system. The devices are also expected to feature new satellite communication technology and a fresh exterior design.

This wouldn’t be the first time Huawei opted for an unconventional launch strategy. Last year’s Mate 60 Pro saw a quiet online release without a press conference. The possibility of a similar surprise launch for the P70 series hangs in the air. Leak also suggests Huawei may launch 10 more products alongside the P70 series.

Huawei P70 series benchmarked on Geekbench with new upclocked Kirin chip

Rajesh Regmi — Sun, 31 Mar 2024 07:01:46 +0000

Huawei‘s upcoming P70 series smartphones appear to be taking shape, with recent leaks suggesting an April launch. Now, smartphones from the P70 lineup have surfaced on the Geekbench benchmarking platform revealing key specifications.

In particular, three Huawei smartphones with model numbers AL10, AL80, and AL00 have been spotted on Geekbench.

The ALT-AL10 is believed to be the standard Huawei P70 which scored 1243 points in single-core tests and 3840 points in multi-core tests. The ALN-AL80, possibly the P70 Pro, achieved 1348 and 4114 points respectively.

Most interestingly, the MNA-AL00 model scored significantly higher with 1784 points in single-core and 4589 points in multi-core performance tests. This is rumored to be the top-of-the-line Huawei P70 Art.

The AL10 and AL80 models appear to use the same Kirin 9000s chipset we’ve previously seen in the Mate 60 Pro. It has a 12-core configuration, with two high-performance cores running at 2.62GHz, six performance cores running at 2.15GHz, and four efficiency cores running at 1.53GHz.

Huawei P70 Art Geekbench

However, the AL00 model or the rumored P70 Art is speculated to feature a new Kirin chipset as the chipset has a different CPU structure. It has four cores clocked at 2.02GHz, three cores running at 2.75GHz, and a single core with 3.19GHz speed. The Geekbench listing also reveals that the smartphone has 12GB of RAM.

Apart from this, the three smartphones have also appeared on China’s Radio certification with similar model numbers — ADY-AL10 (P70), HBN-AL80 (P70 Pro), and HBP-AL00 (P70 Art).

Referencing the Radio listing, tipster Digital Chat Staiton revealed that the base P70 will support the BeiDou satellite messaging feature but the P70 Pro and P70 Art will support both BeiDou’s messaging and satellite calls via Tiantong 1.

We expect further updates on the Huawei P70 series and official confirmation of the launch as we approach the rumored April release window.

Rajesh Regmi — Fri, 29 Mar 2024 05:29:11 +0000

Rumors about Huawei‘s upcoming flagship P70 series have been swirling for a while now. A recent wave of leaks now suggests that an official unveiling is imminent.

A leaked screenshot of what appears to be a Huawei P70 series launch poster surfaced on Weibo suggesting a possible launch date of April 2nd.

Following this leak, other sources started revealing key specifications of the smartphones. These leaks suggest that the P70 series might comprise four models — the Huawei P70, P70 Pro, P70 Pro+, and P70 Art.

However, it’s important to note that the authenticity of these leaks hasn’t been confirmed yet, so it’s best to approach them with caution.

Rumors suggest that Huawei plans to use the Kirin 9000S chipset in all P70 models. However, the chipset, manufactured by SMIC, is currently facing scrutiny due to potential violations of US export restrictions.

In terms of display sizes, the P70 series is expected to feature panels ranging from 6.58 inches to 6.76 inches, all using LTPO OLED technology.

The Pro and Pro+ models may come equipped with a 50MP IMX989 1″ main camera sensor, while the standard P70 might feature a 50MP OV50H sensor. Additionally, all variants are said to share a 13MP selfie camera.

Battery capacities are rumored to range from 5,000 mAh to 5,200 mAh, with support for fast-wired charging up to 88W and wireless charging up to 80W. As for pricing, if the leaks are accurate, it could start at around $700 for the base P70 model and go up to $1,400 for the top-of-the-line P70 Art variant.

Here’s a breakdown of the specs of the Huawei P70 series:

	Huawei P70	Huawei P70 Pro	Huawei P70 Pro+	Huawei P70 Art

Oğuz Çakır — Tue, 26 Mar 2024 18:42:43 +0000

Huawei is gearing up to make waves in the smartphone market. The company has been quietly unveiling new devices, and rumors suggest a similar strategy for the upcoming P70 series. In fact, we previously mentioned the possibility of a Huawei P70 Series launch based on a recent leak. Now a recent leak hints at a potential April pre-order date for the Huawei P70 series, further fueling speculation about an imminent launch. Here are the details…

Huawei P70 Pre-Orders Rumored for Early April, Store Staff Hints

According to Digital Chat Station, pre-orders for the Huawei P70 Series could begin in April. While still a rumor, similar leaks from other sources make this more plausible. The phone’s design has also been confirmed, featuring a distinctive triangular camera island and a triple camera setup. We’re now eager to learn the full technical specifications of the P70 Series.

Fortunately, we have some insights into the upcoming Huawei P70 series. It’s likely to be powered by an upgraded version of the Kirin 9010 SoC. Since the exact model number remains uncertain, let’s refer to it as the Kirin 9xxx for now. Leaks suggest screen sizes ranging between 6.58 and 6.8 inches for the Huawei P70 models, with rumors indicating a high-resolution curved LTPO display.

On the camera front, the P70 series is expected to feature a main camera with either the OV50H or IMX989 sensor. It should also include a 50MP ultra-wide-angle lens and a 50MP 4x periscope telephoto lens. Naturally, satellite communication, a crucial feature in recent times, will also be included. Additionally, expect a refreshed exterior design for the series.

Huawei P70 Series, The Powerhouse You’ve Been Waiting For, Arriving Soon

Oğuz Çakır — Mon, 25 Mar 2024 09:34:23 +0000

Huawei continues to expand its product family. After the excitement of the Mate 60 Series and Mate X50, the company’s next product is another smartphone. The Huawei P70 Series was recently delayed from its early March launch date, but it seems to be finally arriving. Industry insider Digital Chat Station says the P70 Series may launch very soon. Here are the details…

Huawei P70 Series Launch Could Happen Any Day Now

In a shift from their previous grand launch events, Huawei has adopted a new strategy for releasing products. The company now quietly introduces their offerings to the market, yet continues to see significant success. We recently saw this with the impressive sales performance of the Huawei Mate 60 Series in China. Similarly, the Honor X50 Pro quietly launched in China. The upcoming P70 series is poised to be the third Huawei smartphone line to benefit from this quieter launch strategy.

While the exact release date of the upcoming Huawei P70 Series still remains unknown, we’re starting to get a picture of its potential features. Rumors suggest it will carry an upgraded Kirin 9000 series chipset, possibly offering performance gains over the Kirin 9000S found in the Mate60 series. While specific performance details are unavailable, we anticipate power suitable for a current flagship smartphone.

Leaks suggest the Huawei P70 models will offer screen sizes of between 6.58 or 6.8 inches. Rumors indicate a curved LTPO screen with high resolution. The P70 series is expected to feature a main camera with either the OV50H or IMX989 sensor, along with a 50MP ultra-wide-angle lens and a 50MP 4x periscope telephoto lens. Pricing for the P70 series remains unknown, but last year’s Huawei P60 Art launched at 8,988 yuan (around $1,340), providing a potential price point.

Specification	Huawei P70 Series
Processor	Kirin 9010 (SoC model may differ)
Display	6.58-inch or 6.8-inch LTPO OLED, 120Hz
RAM	8 GB / 12 GB
Storage	128 GB / 256 GB / 512 GB
Rear Cameras	50 MP Main (variable aperture) 50 MP Ultrawide, 50MP 4x Periscope, and Telephoto (improved zoom)
Front Camera	32 MP (or above)
Battery	5000 mAh
Fast Charging	66W+ wired, possible wireless charging
Operating System	HarmonyOS
Other	IP68 water/dust resistance, under-display fingerprint sensor

Huawei P70 series launch has reportedly been delayed

Rajesh Regmi — Thu, 07 Mar 2024 08:50:03 +0000

Huawei‘s premium P70 series smartphones, originally rumored for a March release, have reportedly been delayed. According to industry insider Digital Chat Station, the launch timeline of the lineup has been pushed back, though the exact reasons remain undisclosed.

However, local Chinese media sources suggest the delay is due to the broader product release strategies internally within Huawei rather than supply chain constraints.

The new expected launch window for the Huawei P70 series is now April. Despite this shift in schedule, the rumored specifications for the smartphones are likely to remain unchanged.

Rumored Specifications

The Huawei P70 series is expected to include at least three models: the standard version, a Pro edition, and an Art variant. These devices are expected to feature an upgraded Kirin 9xxx chipset, potentially offering performance gains over the Kirin 9000S used in the Mate60 series.

Display-wise, users may have the option between a 6.58-inch or 6.8-inch 2.5D 1.5K LTPO panel with a refined “equal-depth four-micro-curve design.”

A highlight of the series is said to be the camera system. According to reports, the P70 series will feature either the OV50H or IMX989 sensor for the main camera with a physical variable aperture. The setup could also include a 50MP ultra-wide-angle lens and a 50MP 4x periscope telephoto lens.

Recently, images of the Huawei P70 case have also surfaced, revealing a somewhat symmetrical triangle design for the camera module. Leaks also hint at the possibility of the P70 series debuting with satellite communication technology.

As mentioned earlier, the late March launch window for the P70 series remains uncertain at this time. Pricing details are still unknown, but the Huawei P60 Art was released last year with a starting price of 8,988 yuan (approximately $1,340), which may provide a reference point.

Huawei P70 Case Leak Points Towards a Unique Camera Layout

Anubhav — Tue, 05 Mar 2024 03:05:44 +0000

New details about the upcoming Huawei P70 series have surfaced thanks to leaked information and third-party mobile phone cases. Here’s what we know so far. Leaked cases showcase a distinctive camera design for the P70 series, likely featuring a prominent “camera Deco” layout. This design is a significant departure from the “island lens module” seen on the P60 series.

The camera will likely feature either the OV50H or IMX989 sensor

The P70 series is expected to be powered by the Kirin 9xxx chipset, with potential variations in chip frequency between standard and higher-end models. This is likely an upgrade from the Kirin 9000S found in the Mate60 series. The series is rumored to offer two display options: a 6.58-inch or 6.8-inch 2.5D 1.5K LTPO panel with an “equal-depth four-micro-curve design” for a smoother visual experience.

The camera system is a highlight, potentially featuring either the OV50H or IMX989 sensor with a physical variable aperture, alongside a 50MP ultra-wide-angle lens and a 50MP 4x periscope telephoto lens. Leaks suggest the P70 series may introduce new satellite communication technology, further expanding its functionalities, and boast a fresh design language distinct from previous Huawei phone models. While no official confirmation exists, previous reports hinted at a late March release for the P70 series. Pricing details remain unknown, but the Huawei P60 Art, released last year, serves as a reference point with a starting price of 8,988 yuan (around $1,340).

It’s important to remember that these details are based on leaks and rumors. Official confirmation from Huawei regarding specifications, features, and pricing is still awaited.

Huawei P70 to feature 50MP OmniVision OV50H as its primary camera: Report

Sean — Fri, 01 Mar 2024 06:44:18 +0000

Huawei is gearing up to unveil its latest Huawei P70 series of flagship smartphones in China soon. But while there is no official word regarding its announcement, a new report has revealed more details regarding its primary camera on the rear. So here are all the details.

Huawei P70’s main camera is a 50MP OmniVision sensor

For those unaware, Huawei’s P series are high end devices that focus on offering top notch camera performance. Now, sources from within the supply chain have revealed the primary camera on the base P70 model. The Chinese tech giant is apparently planning to outfit the premium grade handset with a OmniVision OV50H sensor for its primary camera. This is a 50-megapixel image sensor that has a 1/1.3-inch sensor size and single pixel measures 1.2μm.

This is in line with one of our previous reports as tipster Digital Chat Station was the first to claim OmniVision OV50H being the main sensor on the rear. He later added that the P70 would pack a 50-megapixel triple camera setup. The OV50H sensor will be paired with a 50-megapixel ultra wide angle lens and a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto shooter that offers 4x optical zoom and take macro shots as well.

Huawei P70 series to see different chipset frequencies, may feature satellite communication in all models

Soumyakanti — Mon, 12 Feb 2024 15:40:15 +0000

Huawei is already gearing up for its next flagship launch – the P70 series. New information suggests that the upcoming smartphones might offer varied chipset frequencies across models, along with other exciting upgrades.

Huawei P70 Series Will Also Feature Curved Displays

According to Weibo tipster Smart Pikachu, the standard and high-end P70 models could utilize a robust Kirin chipset, potentially the Kirin 9000s seen in the Mate 60 series. However, there’s a twist: the high-end models like the P70 Pro, P70 Art, and the rumored P70 Pro+ might sport an overclocked version of this chipset, aiming for a 20% performance boost. While the core architecture remains under wraps, different clock speeds could be the key to achieving this improvement. According to reports, China’s largest chipmaker SMIC, is gearing up for the production of these 5nm chips.

The tipster also sheds light on the display, suggesting all four P70 models might flaunt a curved 1.5K resolution screen for enhanced visuals. Interestingly, Huawei is reportedly testing various screen sizes and experimenting with a blend of four China-made display panels, hinting at significant display upgrades compared to previous generations.

But the excitement doesn’t stop there. The P70 series could mark a major shift in Huawei’s approach to satellite communication technology. Tipsters claim all models might integrate satellite features, potentially offering an improved and more widespread experience. Previously, satellite connectivity was mostly limited to high-end models, with the base variants missing out.

Huawei pioneered smartphone satellite connectivity with the Mate 50 Pro in 2022, enabling one-way satellite SMS functionality. The P60 Pro and P60 Art took it a step further with two-way satellite SMS, while the Mate 60 series introduced two-way satellite calling for the Pro and Pro+ models. The P70 series could see satellite features democratized across all models, or follow the Mate 60 strategy with higher-end variants offering calling capabilities and the base model retaining two-way SMS.

The Huawei P70 series is expected to launch in the Chinese market by the end of March or early April. Additionally, the company is also actively developing HarmonyOS NEXT, a next-generation operating system built on its proprietary kernel. This operating system will entirely eliminate support for Android apps.

Huawei P70 may launch by the end of March 2024: Tipster

Sean — Fri, 19 Jan 2024 09:48:24 +0000

Huawei is apparently planning on launching the new P70 series of flagship smartphones soon. A tipster has revealed the release timeline of the upcoming premium devices, which is reportedly set for the first half of 2024. So here are all the details.

Huawei P70 Launch Timeline

According to a tipster on Weibo, the Chinese tech giant is planning on launching the P70 series around the end of March 2024 or the beginning of April 2024. The person claimed that the source of the release timeline is reliable and accurate. But since it is just an unconfirmed report, take this report with a pinch of salt for now. Based on what we know so far, the Huawei P70 series is expected to feature Chinese OLED panels from BOE, COST, Visionax, and Tianma.

Although, the display won’t offer 2K resolution which is common for top end devices and would instead feature 1.5K resolution. For those unaware, Huawei’s P series is the brand’s flagship phones that focus on photography. Under the hood, the P70 is rumored to be equipped with the Kirin 9000S chipset. This is the same processor that powers the Mate 60 lineup.

Earlier this month, the design of the P70 was also revealed via another leak. The rear is rumored to pack a 1-inch Sony IMX989 primary camera along with a new OmniVision OV50H sensor. Interestingly, the IMX989 is the same sensor that is seen in devices like the Oppo Find X6 Pro. This is all the information we have at the moment, so stick around for more updates.

Huawei P70 series may feature China-made OLED panels from BOE, CSOT, Visionox, Tianma

Anvinraj Valiyathara — Thu, 18 Jan 2024 04:33:30 +0000

According to a new Weibo post by tipster Digital Chat Station, advancements in domestic screen technology, particularly the implementation of 8T LTPO technology, have significantly enhanced user experience and acceptance. The successful resolution of eye protection concerns through the adoption of 3Pulse/1Pulse and full high-frequency dimming solutions has made domestic screens more competitive in the market. It appears that the Huawei P70 series may feature OLED display panels from as many as four different China-based display manufacturers.

Four Chinese manufacturers may provide Huawei P70 series display panels

The leaker claimed that an upcoming flagship will be equipped with display panels from local manufacturers, such as BOE, COST, Visionox, and Tianma. As it is known, Huawei is presently prioritizing the advancement of the domestic industrial chain, opting to bolster local development rather than depending on external brands from outside of China.

Hence, it is speculated that the tipster could be talking about the P70 series, which is expected to include at least three models, such as the Huawei P70, the Huawei P70 Pro, and the Huawei P70 Art. These devices are expected to feature the new Kirin 9100 or the existing Kirin 9000s chipset instead of using Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8-series chipsets like other brands.

Huawei’s P-series flagship phones are known for delivering top-notch photography experiences, and the same is expected from the P70 lineup. There is a possibility that the P70 and 70 Pro may feature Huawei’s in-house camera sensors or OmniVision cameras. On the other hand, the Huawei P70 Art may come equipped with a one-inch, 50-megapixel Sony IMX989 camera sensor.

The Huawei P70 series leaks suggest it may not launch in Q1 this year. Hence, it is likely that the P70 family may break at some point in the second quarter.

Huawei P70 tipped for familiar Kirin 9000S chip

Rajesh Regmi — Fri, 12 Jan 2024 08:07:45 +0000

Huawei is reportedly working on its next flagship smartphone series, the Huawei P70. While the official release date or specs remain under wraps, leaks have started offering a glimpse of what to expect.

The latest comes from a Weibo tipster Smart Pikachu who revealed in a recent post that the Huawei P70 series will feature curved displays. However, unlike most current flagships, the display resolution may not reach the typical 2K standard. Our best guess is that it could be 1.5K instead.

The tipster also revealed that the base P70 model might be powered by the Kirin 9000S chip, the same one found in the Mate 60 series. It’s an octa-core processor with 1 high-performance core, 3 performance cores, and 4 efficiency cores, alongside a Mali-G710 MC10 GPU.

Another tipster Digital Chat Station recently shared the render of the Huawei P70’s back panel. It shows a change in the camera module design from its predecessor, Huawei P60.

The render depicts a triple-camera setup housed in a large, rounded rectangle module. The lenses are arranged in a triangular form, with the XMAGE branding prominently displayed on the module.

DCS suggests the device will feature a new “variable aperture” main lens and a long-range periscope camera, although we are short of any further details like resolution or image sensors.

While this leak provides some interesting details, it’s important to remember that these are just early rumors, so take them with a pinch of salt. We can expect further information about Huawei P70 series to surface in the coming days.

Xiaomi 14 Ultra & Vivo X100 Ultra to launch in April 2024, Huawei P70 in March: Report

Sudhanshu — Tue, 21 Nov 2023 14:18:41 +0000

After its launch in October, the Xiaomi 14 series has become a sensation in its domestic Chinese market, managing to sell around 1.5 million units in a relatively short amount of time. We expect the series to be quite popular in the global market as well. That being said, the brand has already started working on the next big thing, the Xiaomi 14 Ultra.

Like the Ultra models of the past, the 14 Ultra will also mainly bring camera improvements to the table. The rumored launch timeline, leaked online by tipster Fixed Focus Digital, points to April 2024. However, the post also suggests a slowdown in smartphone launches after mid-December in China, indicating a temporary lull in the industry.

Xiaomi 14 Pro Titanium

In addition to the Xiaomi 14 Ultra, Huawei P70, and Vivo X100 Ultra flagship smartphones will also make their debut in March and April, respectively. Another interesting tidbit revealed by the leak suggests that the Vivo X100 Pro+ will be called the X100 Ultra instead. Unlike the Vivo X100 and X100 Pro, the X100 Ultra is rumored to debut with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC, in place of the Dimensity 9300 on its siblings.

Huawei P60 Pro

Vivo X100

From a previous report, we know that both the Vivo X100 Ultra and the Xiaomi 14 Ultra will debut with a 1-inch primary camera sensor from Sony. While there are reports suggesting that the Huawei P70 could launch with in-house cameras.

A report from CNMO states that the Xiaomi 14 Ultra will arrive with a beefed-up 5500mAh battery, a significant jump from the Xiaomi 13 Ultra’s 5000mAh.

Huawei P70 could launch with in-house cameras over Sony sensors

Sean — Tue, 07 Nov 2023 08:33:47 +0000

Huawei made headlines by launching its Mate 60 Pro model as its first ever 5G smartphone after three years. This was possible thanks to its new 7nm Kirin 9000s 5G SoC that was manufactured by SMIC. Now, it appears there is another smartphone component that will be built in-house and it will likely be featured on the upcoming Huawei P70 flagship device.

Huawei P70 to feature proprietary camera sensors

Back in October, we had covered a report talking about how Huawei was working on its own CMOS image sensors. The reason for this shift is due to its stock of Sony sensors running out. After it was hit with the US sanctions, Sony halted shipments of its image sensors to the Chinese tech giant. So now, the company is looking to build its in-house camera systems that will be featured on its next generation of smartphones.

Huawei P60 Pro

One of the first to include this proprietary imaging technology is likely the Huawei P70, as per rumors on Weibo (Via SamMobile). While the brand relied on Sony cameras until now, Huawei hasn’t renewed its contract with the Japanese giant for new sensors. With the P70 launch due, we can expect the upcoming flagship smartphone to feature in-house camera sensors. A previous report regarding the P70 also hinted at the device featuring an optical in-display fingerprint scanner.

Huawei’s P series smartphones are known for “Photography” and offer some of the best cameras on any smartphone. The camera specs and resolution are still unclear, but we can expect the primary sensor to be around 48-megapixel in resolution. The last gen P60 Pro model was announced with two 48-megapixel cameras (primary + periscope) and a 13-megapixel ultra wide angle lens. So we can expect a similar layout for the P70 as well. Keep in mind that this is still just speculation at the moment so take this report with a pinch of salt for now.

Huawei P70 to feature in-display optical fingerprint sensor, according to supply chain sources

Soumyakanti — Wed, 11 Oct 2023 22:33:30 +0000

Huawei is making a comeback in the smartphone market with its Mate 60 series, despite previous setbacks caused by U.S. actions. This resurgence is largely attributed to the use of their domestically developed Kirin 9000S chipset with 5G capabilities, showcasing Huawei’s efforts to reduce reliance on U.S. chip suppliers. However, Huawei’s growth prospects could face challenges due to potential U.S. policy changes, such as stricter export controls on essential chipmaking equipment and AI chips.

Huawei Mate60 component prices saw an increase of 15-30%

Despite facing hurdles, Huawei’s Mate 60 series is experiencing strong sales, further establishing its presence in the smartphone market. However, the surge in demand has led to higher prices for crucial components, particularly the under-screen optical fingerprint modules essential for Mate 60 devices. These component prices have seen an increase of 15-30%. Key providers of these chips for the Mate 60 lineup are Goodix, GigaDevice (Siliwei), and Weier Technology (Jihao Technology).

The Huawei P70, set to be released in 2024, is expected to retain the under-screen optical fingerprint technology used in the Mate 60 series, as per supply chain sources. Additionally, it may feature the Kirin 9000S chipset, which has been previously reported.

Huawei aims to double its smartphone exports in 2024, targeting 60 to 70 million units. To meet the demand, the company is prioritizing the acquisition of optical fingerprint modules, which have seen price increases due to high demand. Huawei appears to be actively building inventory in preparation for a smooth launch and distribution of the P70 flagship.

Huawei has faced challenges in the past month due to consistently high-volume orders from partners, which have strained the availability of crucial components and disrupted production rates. However, Huawei remains committed to its ambitious goal of shipping 60-70 million smartphones in the upcoming year, with the P70 expected to play a central role in the company’s strategy. Additionally, they will also cut ties with Qualcomm and exclusively use its in-house Kirin processors for new models starting in 2024.
