Mars Collides with Earth: Huawei MateXT vs iPhone 16 Series in a Peak Showdown

The early morning of September 10th saw the launch of the iPhone 16 series, followed by the Huawei MateXT launch at 2:30 PM on the same day. This "Mars colliding with Earth" style showdown pushed the competition in the smartphone industry to a new peak. Judging by the buzz, the attention on Huawei's tri-fold MateXT far surpassed the iPhone 16 series. Notably, both models are slated to be released on the same day.

The hype surrounding the Huawei MateXT continues to climb, with industry discussions focused on its premium pricing. While rumors of a 380,000 yuan and 90,000 yuan price tag proved false, the MateXT is now almost certainly priced at 50,000 yuan, especially for those seeking early access. A price point of 30,000 yuan is almost inevitable. The current discussion revolves around securing a MateXT and obtaining first-launch access.

Amidst the discussion of the MateXT's premium pricing, the industry is showering praise on Huawei's innovative capabilities. 360 founder Zhou Hongyi even publicly declared that Huawei's hardware innovations surpass Apple's by a significant margin, and that he would no longer be purchasing the iPhone 16 series. This is the essence of the impact the MateXT is having on the industry. More importantly, many of the technologies present in the MateXT will be utilized in the upcoming MateX6, leaving other brands in the dust.

While the industry is abuzz about the MateXT, the iPhone 16 series has also opened pre-orders. As of now, all but the iPhone 16 ProMax are available for purchase. Whether this is due to reduced demand or ample inventory from Apple remains unclear. Unlike previous years, the industry has not focused on the iPhone 16 series' features themselves following the opening of pre-orders. Instead, the discussion centers around the lack of innovation, the incremental upgrades, and the "toothpaste squeezing" approach. Despite Apple's emphasis on AI features, their practical use for domestic users is currently limited, making it seem like a mere promise. Even the once-dominant Apple A-series processors may become a weak point this time around.

In comparison, Huawei's MateXT has undoubtedly emerged victorious in this showdown, primarily due to its influence and innovative prowess. Admittedly, the MateXT's sales figures will likely fall short of the iPhone 16 series, but this is hardly surprising.

The next round of this peak showdown will take place on September 20th, when both models hit the market. This battle promises to be unforgettable and worthy of everyone's anticipation.

Huawei MateXT's Leading Advantages

The MateXT's dominance in terms of public awareness and industry impact is largely attributed to its strong innovative spirit.

• Revolutionary Folding Screen Technology: The MateXT is currently the only tri-fold smartphone on the market. Its unique folding design and hinge technology represent the future of this type of device.

• Superior Hardware Configuration: The MateXT is powered by the Kirin 9000S processor, providing exceptional performance. It also boasts 5G capabilities, a high refresh rate screen, massive memory, and a long battery life, surpassing the iPhone 16 series in hardware configuration.

• Revolutionary Innovative Features: The MateXT boasts multiple innovative features, such as smart split-screen, floating windows, and the M-Pencil, offering a whole new user experience and opening up more possibilities for the future of foldable phones.

iPhone 16 series' Shortcomings

In comparison, the iPhone 16 series falls short in terms of innovation, primarily in the following areas:

• Lack of Innovation: The iPhone 16 series offers incremental upgrades, mainly in terms of processor performance, camera capabilities, and software experience. Overall, the innovation is lacking, with no significant breakthroughs.

• Toothpaste Squeezing Upgrades: The long-awaited USB-C interface has not materialized, as Apple continues to use the Lightning connector. This "toothpaste squeezing" upgrade approach has left users disappointed.

• AI Features Lack Practicality: The AI features that Apple has been promoting are currently of no practical use to domestic consumers.

Conclusion

The peak showdown between Huawei MateXT and the iPhone 16 series marks a significant strategic move in the smartphone industry. The MateXT, backed by its powerful innovative capabilities, has won industry recognition and user attention, offering a new vision for the future of foldable phones. While the iPhone 16 series continues to dominate sales, its lack of innovation and breakthrough advancements reveal a crisis in Apple's innovative spirit.

The outcome of this battle will have a profound impact on the future of the smartphone industry. We look forward to the emergence of even more exciting and innovative products in the future, driving continuous breakthroughs and shaping a brighter future for the industry.
