Recently, rumors about Huawei’s 5G products can often be seen on the Internet. It is even reported that Huawei is expected to return to the 5G mobile phone market at the end of the year. As for the truth, only Huawei can give the answer.
However, there is really a Huawei 5G mobile phone coming. It is ok to say that it is a new one, and there is nothing wrong with the old model.
1. Huawei’s "5G mobile phone" is coming.
In the early morning of this morning, Huawei’s dealer "Uncle Watching the Mountain" issued a document saying that "Huawei launched a new 5G mobile phone in 2023". After a closer look, it turned out to be the Leica standard version of Huawei Mate 40Pro.
Simply put,The new version of Huawei Mate 40Pro is the model with the Leica logo cut off., other and ordinary version, is to get a new 3C certificate, a brand-new model of new network access license.
The dealer said that the machine has been listed, but before the deadline, this model was not seen in Huawei Mall, and it may be sold directly in Huawei Mall recently, just like the Huawei P50 series that went to Leica before.
2. Why is there a Leica version?
As for why the Leica version was launched, here is an explanation.Because after the cooperation with Leica was terminated, Huawei launched its own image brand XMAGE, and Huawei Mate 50 series became the first show of XMAGE brand on mobile phones.
Because the cooperation with Leica has been terminated, it makes sense for Huawei Mate 40Pro to launch the Leica standard version.
It is worth mentioning that Huawei Mate 40Pro went to Leica Standard Edition as early as January this year, and I don’t know why it didn’t go public until July.
In addition, the price of Huawei Mate 40Pro going to Leica should be the same as that of the ordinary version, and even lower. As a reference, the listing price of Huawei Mate 40Pro’s 8GB+256GB is 6499 yuan, and the price of 8GB+512GB is 7499 yuan.
In terms of core specifications,Huawei Mate 40Pro is equipped with Kirin 9000L 5G processor., using 5nm process, 2 GPUs, 2 CPUs and 1 large NPU are less than Kirin 9000.
The front of the mobile phone is a 6.76-inch 88 hypercurved screen with a resolution of 2772*1344 and a refresh rate of 90Hz. It is equipped with a 50-megapixel wide-angle main camera+a 20-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens+a 12-megapixel telephoto lens+a 13-megapixel super-sensing wide-angle lens+a 3D deep-seated lens.
If Huawei Mate 40Pro goes to Leica for the same price, but there is 5G, will you spend more than 6000 yuan to buy it?
3. It is uncertain when Huawei’s 5G mobile phone will return.
Due to sanctions, Huawei’s new machines in recent years do not support 5G networks, which has become a regret in the hearts of many consumers, and they are also looking forward to the return of Huawei’s mobile phone 5G.
Huawei Mate 40Pro went to the Leica version for listing. Although it is a Huawei 5G mobile phone, after all, new bottles of old wine are not strictly new 5G machines.
Moreover, Kirin 9000L is used in stock, so we can’t expect too much in terms of performance and supply.
Last month, it was reported that the United States allowed Qualcomm to resume supplying 5G chips to Huawei, and Huawei’s Mate 60 series may support 5G in the second half of the year, but it was finally refuted by Yu Chengdong.
In addition, some "Huawei’s 5G return" claimed by the media on the Internet, although it looks very exciting, may not be a "good thing" for Huawei now. When the time comes, Huawei will naturally give an answer.
4. Huawei Mate 60 will be released at the end of September at the earliest.
The news shows that Huawei is expected to arrive in Mate 60 series at the end of September. Judging from the details of the previous exposure,Huawei Mate 60 Series Standard Edition is equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ 4G, Pro version or Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen2 4G chip.
Not long ago, Huawei also raised its mobile phone shipment target to 40 million units in 2023, which was set at the level of 30 million units at the beginning of the year, which means that it has great confidence in the Mate60 series internally.
In addition, Huawei Mate 60 series is equipped with a new generation of HarmonyOS 4.0 operating system, and the Beta version of the system has been recruited, so developers can sign up for the beta test of HarmonyOS 4.0.
5. Friends discuss Huawei’s 5G return: it is worth being happy.
Recently, it was reported that Huawei is planning to return to the 5G smart phone industry before the end of this year. Huawei may produce the flagship model P60 of 5G version this year, and the new machine may be launched early next year.
Regarding this issue, Glory Zhao Ming said, "Like everyone else, I don’t think and judge this information, but anyway,It is a pleasure to have an influential partner or competitor back to make the industry more dynamic from any angle."
Zhao Ming further pointed out, "You chase after me more than competition and innovation, which will make this industry full of charm. We look forward to more and stronger opponents."
The return of Huawei’s 5G mobile phone can be said to be expected, but the process is doomed to be not smooth sailing, and it is not yet known whether it can be achieved in the end. Consumers can only wait patiently for further news from Huawei officials.
