The Huawei Mate70 Series Launch is Approaching, Price Remains the Biggest Mystery!

Since early this month, when Richard Yu officially announced "The Most Powerful Mate Ever! See you in November," various rumors about the Huawei Mate70 series have been circulating, attracting the keen attention of numerous Huawei fans. As the release date nears, people's anticipation for this new phone has reached its peak, especially when it comes to the price, which has become a focal point of discussion. So, how much will the Mate70 series cost this year? Let's analyze it.

Release Date: November 19th or 26th?

Based on the historical release patterns of Huawei phones and the leaked promotional materials, Huawei typically chooses Tuesdays to launch new devices. Therefore, the Mate70 series will likely be unveiled at a press conference on November 19th or 26th. According to digital bloggers, the offline sales of the Huawei Mate70 series are expected to begin around early December, with some third-party stores even starting to accept pre-orders for deposits. Notably, official Huawei stores have not yet opened pre-orders, so consumers need to be cautious when choosing to pre-order.

Price Increase or Maintenance? Price Speculation

In recent years, the smartphone industry has generally faced pressure from rising costs, leading to continuous price increases for products. This year, both flagship and mid-range phones have seen price hikes to varying degrees, ranging from three hundred to five hundred yuan. Considering the increase in storage and memory costs, the price of the Huawei Mate70 series might also experience a slight increase. Some sources suggest that the starting price of the Huawei Mate70 could rise by 300 yuan compared to the previous generation. Referencing the starting price of 5499 yuan for the Huawei Mate60 with 12GB+256GB storage, the standard Mate70 could potentially reach 5799 yuan. The Mate70 Pro, on the other hand, is expected to see a price increase of 500 yuan, with the 12GB+256GB version potentially priced at 6999 yuan, directly competing with the iPhone 16.

However, some argue that Huawei needs to promote its HarmonyOS NEXT system on a larger scale, and the Mate70 series could be aimed at driving sales volume. Therefore, the possibility of a significant price increase might be lower, or the price hike might not be substantial, and it's even possible that the prices could remain the same. Currently, the official price information has not been released, and the final price will need to be confirmed by subsequent verification.

Exterior Design: Detail Upgrades, Enhanced Experience

Recently, a netizen accidentally revealed a photo of the front of the Mate70 Pro, aligning with leaks from digital bloggers, further confirming the authenticity of the image. From the picture, we can see that the front of the Huawei Mate70 has not changed much, maintaining the familiar centered triple-hole screen design and featuring 3D facial recognition. The curvature of the four-level deep micro-curved screen has slightly decreased, making it closer to a straight screen.

The most significant change is in the middle frame, which adopts a design similar to a right angle with large chamfered transitions. The power button has also become larger, making it easier for users to identify and operate. Regarding the reason for switching to side-mounted fingerprint recognition, some bloggers speculate that the HarmonyOS NEXT system's lock screen interface includes a new interactive feature, allowing users to directly pull up a card window by tapping on a notification bubble. Therefore, the on-screen fingerprint sensor had to make way.

Upon closer examination, the antenna placement on the Huawei Mate70 has shifted compared to the Mate60, moving closer to the middle of the body. This change might enhance the signal performance, which Huawei has always taken pride in, and it's something to look forward to.

Configuration Upgrade: Comprehensive Enhancement, Expectations for a Bestseller

Regarding the configuration of the Huawei Mate70, there's already been a considerable amount of information leaked online. It is reported that the series has undergone comprehensive upgrades in hardware configuration, bringing significant improvements in processor, memory, camera, and other areas, enough to encourage users still holding Mate40 or 50 series phones to upgrade. In short, this year's Mate70 series will undoubtedly not disappoint us. Let's patiently wait a few more days to unravel the mystery.
