According to previous leaks, the launch of the Huawei P70 series is drawing closer by the day. Meanwhile, a plethora of related product information and leaks are flooding the scene.
Recently, three Huawei devices with model numbers ADY-AL10, HBN-AL80, and HBP-AL00 have received certification for wireless radio access.
Combining this with insights from tech blogger @DigitalChatter, it's highly likely that these three devices are the upcoming Huawei P70 series.
According to the information leaked, the entire Huawei P70 series has been certified for network access.
Among them, the model ADY-AL10 is classified as a medium-size cup, supporting Beidou short message communication. The devices HBN-AL80 and HBP-AL00, on the other hand, are classified as large cup and super large cup respectively, supporting Beidou short message communication as well as TianTong-1 satellite calls.
Additionally, enhancements in satellite communication technology and the main camera's telephoto imaging scheme are also something to look forward to.
It's reported that the upcoming Huawei P70 series will bring a fresh upgrade in imaging capabilities, possibly featuring support for "AI imaging". Previous leaks suggested that the Huawei P70 series is expected to adopt a configuration with the OV50K+ physical variable aperture solution.
As for the specific parameter specifications, combining the current leaks, the Huawei P70 series engineering models are expected to come standard with the Kirin 5G chipset, high-density battery cells, wireless charging, a 50-megapixel ultra-large primary camera, periscope telephoto lens, satellite communication technology, and more.
Meanwhile, the latest leaks also indicate that there will be changes in the chipset for the Huawei P70 series. With these developments, the actual performance of this generation's P series flagship is highly anticipated.
Actually, blogger @DigitalChatter previously hinted at this in a leak, stating: "The Huawei P70 series is indeed faster, and there's a possibility it could be available on the official website store anytime soon." Based on the leak, it seems highly likely that the Huawei P70 series will officially go on sale very soon.
However, there's no concrete information yet on when exactly the specific new product launch event will take place. But judging from the available information, the next generation flagship of the P series should be officially unveiled shortly.
As for the design of the new device, most of the leaked renders that have surfaced so far showcase triangular rear camera module elements. However, there's no precise information yet regarding the specific design details.
Additionally, apart from the brand-new flagship P70 series, there have been previous mentions of Huawei's tri-fold smartphone. According to relevant reports, this new device is currently in the development phase and could possibly debut in the second quarter of this year.
In terms of design, this foldable screen new device might adopt a Z-shaped or S-shaped form factor. The folded screen size of the phone is expected to be similar to that of a typical smartphone, around 6.4 inches.
Recently, a patent application for a "foldable screen device" by Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. was published. The application date was February 21, 2023, and the publication date was March 29, 2024.
The patent abstract reveals that the application provides a foldable screen device comprising a first shell, a second shell, a third shell, a first hinge, a second hinge, and a flexible screen.
According to embodiments of this application, the multiple shells can have different thicknesses, reducing the thickness of the foldable screen device when folded and making it lighter, thus providing users with a better grip experience.
Based on the patent images provided, it appears that Huawei is exploring a design for a tri-fold device and seeking solutions to make such devices thinner and lighter. This suggests that Huawei is likely advancing research and development efforts on tri-fold smartphone models. Whether these devices will be unveiled in the near future remains to be confirmed with further updates.
