Of course, this doesn't mean that store salespeople won't need to make an extra effort to promote it, but the Huawei P70 series is powerful enough on its own. According to previous insights from CNMO, the Huawei P70 series will offer at least three models, including the Huawei P70 standard version, P70 Pro, and P70 Art.
In terms of screen configuration, the Huawei P70 standard version will feature a 6.58-inch OLED screen, while the Huawei P70 Pro and Huawei P70 Art will both come with a larger 6.8-inch display.
On the imaging front, it's anticipated that the Huawei P70 standard version and Pro version will utilize a domestically-made HuaWei OV50H sensor for the main camera, with a triangular design for the rear camera module. Meanwhile, the Huawei P70 Art is expected to employ Sony's IMX989 one-inch sensor, with an irregular polygonal design for the rear camera module.
Apart from significant improvements in imaging configuration, it's understood that this new series of phones will be powered by the robust Kirin 5G chipset, with breakthroughs also made in satellite communication functionality.
According to the latest research report from Minsheng Securities, the industry is eagerly anticipating the upcoming release of Huawei's P70 series smartphones.
Redmi Turbo 3
Recently, Wang Teng, the newly appointed general manager of the Redmi brand and spokesperson, officially received the "glove" symbolizing the fighting spirit of Redmi from Lu Weibing, fully taking charge of the new Redmi phone. The first Redmi phone under Wang Teng's responsibility comes from the new Turbo 3 series.
On April 1st, Wang Teng announced the kickoff of a new decade for Redmi, introducing a fresh lineup of products. Alongside the existing K series, Note series, and numbered series, they're introducing the Turbo series, positioning it as the new-gen performance flagship, reshaping the mid-range performance landscape. The inaugural device of this Turbo series, the Turbo 3, is set to launch in April.
As the flagship of Redmi's new decade, the Redmi Turbo 3 will be powered by the latest Snapdragon 8 series flagship chipset, leading the industry in mid-range performance advancement.
It's reported that the Turbo series has ambitious plans within the Redmi ecosystem, aiming to compete in the price segment of the standard K series. For this launch, there's substantial technical support from the K series product team, unleashing the full potential of the Snapdragon 8 Gen3.
According to Wang Teng, the Turbo series has achieved a benchmark score of over 1.7 million in the Redmi Lab. For comparison, the K70, equipped with Snapdragon 8 Gen2, scored 1.71 million points.

It's worth mentioning that on March 27th, "Bursting Teng" had already shown the front photo of the Turbo 3. According to the photos displayed by Wang Teng, this new phone is equipped with a straight screen and adopts a center single punch-hole design. The three edges of the front are very narrow, with a slightly wider chin, giving a very comfortable visual impression. Wang Teng called this phone the "most beautiful front face".

Redmi Turbo 3 was dubbed the "most beautiful front face" by Wang Teng, while Xu Qi, vice president of realme and president of global marketing and China region, referred to the Realme GT Neo6 SE as the "most handsome front face in the industry". With a picture as proof, Xu Qi released a front photo of the Realme GT Neo6 SE. The phone adopts an ultra-narrow edge micro-curved screen design, with very narrow borders on all four sides.

Additionally, this device will debut the Realme 6000nit dual-screen, allowing mid-range smartphone users to enjoy a high-end flagship screen experience with revolutionary improvements in display, brightness, eye protection, and operational experience.
In daily life, the interaction between users and smartphones is mainly done through the screen, and it can be said that the quality of the screen directly affects the user's intuitive experience of using the phone. Therefore, Xu Qizao has put a lot of effort into the screen of the Realme GT Neo6 SE.
The screen is jointly created by Realme and BOE, incorporating 9 major innovative technologies, with a peak brightness of up to 6000nit in certain areas. It also features a high-brightness lifespan protection algorithm, with a display lifespan exceeding twice that of the industry standard.

Huawei nova 12 Ultra May Launch Starlight Edition Package
Huawei has long applied for the registration of the "Starlight Phone" related trademark, leading to speculation that it might be a new sub-brand. The latest leaks reveal that Starlight is indeed coming, but not as a sub-brand as previously rumored. Instead, it will be introduced as the "Starlight Edition."
Relevant Leak
Recently, tech blogger @PrimeFocusTech leaked information suggesting that the Huawei nova 12 Ultra might introduce a Starlight Edition package. The new ID suffix would be called the Starlight Edition, offering up to 1TB of storage capacity and maintaining the same color options as the current models.
This means that the Starlight Edition phones won't feature new colors or designs but will instead match the existing models while offering up to 1TB of storage. It's expected that the price will see a slight increase.
The device might also be released in April. For reference, the Huawei nova 12 Ultra was launched at the end of last year, offering two memory variants: 512GB priced at 4699 CNY and 1TB priced at 5499 CNY.
Conclusion
These are the new devices expected to debut in April, and each one is highly anticipated. However, they might not be all there is, as more new devices set to be unveiled in April will likely be announced closer to the launch date.
