On April 7, digital blogger @Wangzai Bestway revealed that Huawei's new folding screen flagship Mate X3 will be equipped with a Snapdragon 888 processor (followed by a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1) version. When netizens asked why they did not use the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, the blogger's answer was that Huawei wanted to leave the first release of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 4G version to the Mate 50 series.
It is a pity to say that according to Huawei's practice, it should be released in the first half of each year P series flagship, the second half of the Mate series flagship, but at the end of last year, the Mate 50 series could not be released. The reason we all know is that Huawei is sanctioned, the situation is very difficult, it is not easy for the P50 series to be released, even if it is only a 4G version, we can understand.
If all goes well, the Mate 50 series will be released for sale in July. According to the news on the Internet, the Mate 50 Pro may change back to the bangs screen design and retain the classic 3D face recognition. Other flagship machines should have the configuration, Mate 50 Pro will not fall, but considering the current situation of Huawei, I am afraid that the production capacity will be very limited.
As for the Mate X3, @Wangzai Bestway said it will be released at the end of this month. In this way, in order to leave the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 4G for the Mate 50 Pro to debut, Huawei's sacrifice is quite large, and the folding screen flagship cannot use the Snapdragon 8Gen 1.
For Huawei users who are still insisting, the most anticipated thing is definitely the resurrection of Huawei 5G mobile phones, although now Huawei is higher than some sub-brands, if Dingqiao mobile phones, in addition to the name and logo are different, other and Huawei mobile phones are no different. However, it is difficult for users to identify with the Dingqiao brand, and Huawei is the representative of the high-end flagship of Android mobile phones.
Relevant departments have been supporting the development of the semiconductor industry, and more and more chips have been localized, but the domestic process is still somewhat backward. But that's not critical, it's not a big deal to reduce some performance, as long as it can be localized, it's a great step. A few days ago, domestic manufacturers Fumanwei said that 5G RF chips have achieved mass production and received many orders from domestic mobile phone manufacturers.
Fumanwei's 5G RF chips use a lot of American technology, and there is a high probability that they cannot be supplied to Huawei, but this situation has shown that more and more chips can be localized. I believe that one day, all the hardware of the mobile phone can be completely localized, and the 5G Huawei mobile phone will return to the king.
