Huawei P70, blowing up the whole audience?
The time has entered late February, OPPO, vivo, and Xiaomi have all released their annual flagship products, and the pressure has naturally come to Huawei. Although Huawei only released its own new generation of folding products two days ago, it is still a little difficult to compete with the Oppo Find X7 Ultra, vivo X100 Pro and Xiaomi 14 Ultra alone. But fortunately, a blogger broke the news that Huawei's imaging flagship P70 series is already on the way.

According to the Weibo of @Digital Chatting Station, the Huawei P70 series is currently tentatively scheduled to be officially released in late March, and it has finally returned to the normal update status of "P series is responsible for the first half of the year, and Mate series is responsible for the second half of the year". Of course, Xiaolei believes that everyone is very curious about the configuration of the P70 series, and whether it can stand out among the image flagships?
Huawei P70, the imaging flagship without an opponent?
Since it is a product line that positions the image flagship, the biggest highlight of the P70 series must be its image configuration, and Huawei will naturally not disappoint everyone.
First of all, the main camera,HuaweiP70Series is equipped with a one-inch size large bottom sensorIMX989,I believe everyone is familiar with this sensor,It can bring more realistic light and shadow effects、Stronger depth of field and better image quality,This we have already witnessed on last year's image flagship。

What's more interesting is that, perhaps due to cost constraints, the IMX989 sensor should only be used in the P70 Pro/Art, two products with higher positioning, while the P70 standard version will use OmniVision's OV50H sensor. Although it is not as good as IMX989 in size, its size has also reached 1/1.3 inch, a single pixel size of 1.2μm, and a four-in-one pixel provides an equivalent 2.4μm large-size pixel, this parameter is actually not much worse than IMX989, but the actual effect depends on how Huawei adjusts it.
In addition, HuaweiP70The main camera of the whole series will be equipped with a variable aperture design,It can provide different depth of field bokeh effects according to the different needs of users,This is quite good。

In addition, the ultra-wide-angle lens and periscope telephoto lens are also 50 million high-pixel sensors, of which the native focal length of the periscope telephoto lens is 90mm, which is slightly longer than the mainstream 75mm today, and will be more realistic when shooting some distant portraits and close-ups. In addition, this lens also supports telephoto macro function, which can bring more composition techniques to users.
In addition, Huawei P70 Art also uses a glass-plastic hybrid lens, 1G+6P structure, which can achieve greater light intake and lower dispersion than the traditional 7-piece plastic lens stacking solution, thus bringing more transparent imaging results. The Huawei P70 Art is also equipped with Huawei's self-developed XMAGE imaging system. This system is the result of Huawei's years of technology accumulation and innovation in the imaging field, which can further improve the photo effect and bring users a better imaging experience.

In terms of screen,HuaweiP70Series has also ushered in a new upgrade,According to@Wisdom Pikachu's revelations,HuaweiP70The customized screen of the series is also slightly curved,But there is no 2k,Eye protection and power consumption are OK。 According to him, the new Huawei P70 series will be equipped with a custom micro-curved screen, and upgrades have been made in terms of eye protection and power consumption, and a high-quality screen can also bring better viewing results, which is actually a necessity for many image enthusiasts.

In terms of price,Xiaolei boldly guesses that the starting price of HuaweiP70 series may increase compared with the previous generation,After allMate60Series and friends have used the satellite call function,The cost will definitely increase,Therefore, the starting price should be more than 5000 yuan,The price of the top configuration may also exceed five figures。
The new machine is equipped with new cores, can it reproduce the glory of the Mate60 style?
On the Mate60 series released last year, we finally saw the Kirin chip that has been "discontinued" for many years, although the performance of the Kirin 9000S is indeed decent at present, compared with the real flagship core, it can also be seen that Huawei will no longer be easily stuck.
According to the current revelations, the P70 series will most likely continue to use the Mate60 series of Kirin 9000S processors, but there are also media that the Art and Pro versions may be equipped with Kirin 9010 processors with stronger chip performance, but due to the current production capacity problems, the output of this new processor is less, and it is difficult to do the whole system like Kirin 9000S.

About the Kirin 9010 this new processor,There are various conjectures on the Internet at present,Some media say that it is the overclocking version of the Kirin 9000S,The overall performance improvement is not large,It can even be said that it is minimal;There are also some revelations that the Kirin 9010 due to the replacement of the new architecture,The performance has been greatly improved,It has even surpassed the first generation of Snapdragon 8+ processor,But neither of the two conjectures is supported by any facts,So whether the Kirin 9010 exists or not,At present, Xiaolei can not draw conclusions。
But what is certain is that Huawei HiSilicon has definitely completed the design of the Kirin 9010. Of course, due to various factors, the possibility of mass production of the original Kirin 9010 is very small, so Xiaolei guessed that the Huawei P70 series is likely to use the Kirin 9000S processor, and the new processor may be left to the Mate70 series, which is also Huawei's consistent style.

In addition, according to the revelations,HuaweiP70The "new" HarmonyOS system carried by the series is also very interesting,Previously, Huawei said at the press conference that it had opened the HarmonyOS NEXT HarmonyOS Galaxy version test,The first batch of 200+ HarmonyOS native applications are also under development,HuaweiP70The series is likely to be the first batch of machines that can experience HarmonyOS native applications。

No matter which chip it is equipped with, it can be expected that the sales of the Huawei P70 series will rise sharply this year. Analysts predict that thanks to the return of Kirin chips after many years, Huawei's brand influence and user loyalty in the high-end market, Huawei's P70 series shipments are expected to soar by 230% in 2024 to reach 13 million to 15 million units.
Even if the demand slows down, the shipments of the P70 series are expected to increase by 150%, reaching 10 million units - 12 million units, not to mention this data in the domestic market, looking at the global market, only the iPhone can fight with it, outstanding brand influence and good product power make Huawei still have a strong competitiveness in the mobile phone market, which is difficult for other domestic manufacturers to achieve.

Huawei's appeal in the high-end mobile phone market is undoubted, and it can be seen from the extremely high popularity in recent times that the market's expectations for Huawei are extremely huge. But Xiaomi、OPPO、The rise of vivo may have a certain impact on Huawei,Take the three recently released image flagships as an example,They have reached the high-end level in terms of product power and price,There are also many former Apple Huawei users who choose to jump to a new camp,It shows that Huawei's strong opponents have become more and more,Although there will be no decline in recognition,But who knows if the future Mi OV will become the next "Huawei"?
