Revealed again! Huawei Mate70 release date and price are here.

As time goes by, the popularity of Huawei's first tri-fold phone, Mate XT, has gradually declined. HarmonyOS NEXT has officially started public testing, which means that Huawei's next-generation flagship - the Mate70 series, is getting closer to us.

In fact, as early as the release of the Pura70 series in the first half of the year, there was a lot of information circulating about the Huawei Mate70 series.

From the current situation, the processor, battery life, camera setup, and other information about the Huawei Mate70 series have already been leaked. However, some important information will only be revealed after the actual launch of the device.

Many friends are paying attention to the release date and starting price of the Huawei Mate 70 series. Judging from the normal iteration pace of the Huawei Mate series in the past, the Mate 70 should have been unveiled as early as September.

However, according to relevant bloggers, due to the delayed adaptation of the self-developed new system and the all-new iteration Kirin processor, it is expected that the Huawei Mate 70 series will be postponed and is expected to debut around November.

Therefore, the exact release date of the Huawei Mate 70 series will depend on the progress of the adaptation of HarmonyOS and the new Kirin 9000 series processor.

About HarmonyOS NEXT, it probably goes without saying that Huawei has conducted multiple rounds of beta testing for HarmonyOS NEXT since June, and officially started public testing on October 8th.

Based on the current public testing results and user feedback, the adaptation of Huawei's pure HarmonyOS system is progressing smoothly. The system's fluency and application experience are relatively mature, with most mainstream applications already adapted to the native HarmonyOS ecosystem. It covers 18 domains including audio-visual entertainment, financial management, travel accommodation, and business office, so it will not significantly affect users' daily usage.

The advantage of the pure Hongmeng OS is also very obvious. This is a pure domestic mobile operating system that completely removes the Linux kernel and AOSP Android code. It can only install application software based on the Hongmeng kernel, achieving full-stack self-research. It can be considered a milestone breakthrough in the field of domestic operating systems.

Perhaps some friends may ask: Since HarmonyOS NEXT is already so mature, why hasn't the Mate70 series been released quickly?

Actually, the adaptation between the HarmonyOS system and major applications is not an easy task. Take the recently announced WeChat HarmonyOS native version as an example. Although the invitation-only internal testing has started, only basic functions such as audio and video calls, social communication, Moments (similar to posts), and scanning have been launched. Other functions like Mini Programs and Moments for browsing still need further optimization in the future.

The pure-blood Hongmeng ecosystem cannot be considered fully mature until these issues are resolved.

Combined with the Kirin processor currently carried by the Huawei Mate70 series, there are reports that it will be the Kirin 9000 series chip based on a new process. The performance and power consumption of the chip are worth looking forward to, but information about the architecture, naming, and other details of this chip is not yet known.

Therefore, it can be initially predicted that the Huawei Mate70 series is very likely to be postponed to mid-late November for release. It is not ruled out that they may adopt a strategy of pre-sale before the official launch, going directly on sale.

As for the launch prices of the Huawei Mate 70 series, currently there is no official information available. However, based on previous leaked information, it is expected that the launch price of the Mate 70 standard version (12GB+256GB) will be around 5499 yuan, the Mate 70 Pro (12GB+256GB) is expected to be priced at 6499 yuan, the Mate 70 Pro+ (16GB+512GB) will be priced at 8999 yuan, and the top-of-the-line Mate RS Aston Martin Edition with 16GB+1TB storage may reach 12999 yuan.
