There is no time to look back at the previously released flagship phones.
Because the next thing that will arrive on the battlefield is -
Completely replace the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 phone with the new architecture.
The Dimensity 9400 debuts in an all-nuclear stance.
and the Huawei Mate 70 series, which has recently attracted much attention with the new Kirin chip and pure-blooded HarmonyOS.
That's right.
Although the Huawei Developer Conference a few days ago, the content was mainly based on software technology, systems and application ecology.
But Mr. Yu, who we are familiar with, still couldn't hold back.
The release time of the Huawei Mate 70 series was revealed, just in the fourth quarter.
In addition, it was previously revealed that the Huawei Mate 70 series appeared almost at the same time as the first batch of Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 and Dimensity 9400 phones.
It can be assumed that the Mate 70 series will be officially launched in October.
And as soon as it came up, it was directly equipped with the official version of HarmonyOS NEXT.
At that time, we will also be able to experience various new characteristics of the pure-blood Hongmeng complete body.
What is the Internet of Everything, Native Intelligence, Native Security...
Coupled with the new iteration of hardware, really, I can't imagine how fierce it will be.
Coincidentally, there have been more recent revelations about the Huawei Mate 70 series.
Brother Ji combined soft and hard, and had an episode with his brothers -
"Huawei Mate 70 Series Preview
Huawei Mate 70 series
Just as you look at the outfit before looking at the person, you have to look at the hardware strength of the mobile phone first.
Although since the Huawei Mate 60 series, Huazi has started the Kirin 9000S universe, using various versions for the new tablet and the new nova series.
But in the two major product lines of Mate and Pura, Huazi has always given the best performance chips.
For example, the Kirin 9010 on the Huawei Pura 70 series, looking at the name, it seems that it is just a minor repair of the Kirin 9000S.
But the reality is that the Kirin 9010 is much better than the Kirin 9000S in terms of performance and energy efficiency.
There are both architectural tweaks and cache improvements.

As for the Huawei Mate 70 series, which has held back a bunch of big moves, there is a high probability that it will also be equipped with the new Kirin chip.
Unlike the half-generation upgrade of the Kirin 9010, this time it is a new iteration of the real one.
First of all, in terms of chip architecture, both the large and small cores of the CPU will use the new architecture.
Including the L3 cache, it will also be pulled up to 8MB, and the system smoothness and game performance will be significantly improved.
Specific to Geekbench's running score, some bloggers predict that it will be 1300+ for single-core and 4900+ for multi-core.
This performance can be said to have caught up with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2.
Of course, everyone understands Huazi's character, and hardware improvement alone is not enough to satisfy hunger.
Therefore, at the autumn press conference, Huazi will most likely debut a new feature of "GPU combined with NPU".
Since 2017, Huawei has built a self-developed NPU into its self-developed Kirin chips.
This also gives Huawei mobile phones the ability to handle certain tasks with low power consumption.
For example, real-time gesture recognition, air control, and video quality enhancement and other functions.
Of course, the NPU also has the ability to accelerate AI computing, image rendering, super-resolution, and frame filling.
Therefore, in scenarios such as video and games, GPUs are required to intervene in computing.
The combination of GPU + NPU can really effectively share the load and pressure of the GPU.
When MediaTek released the Dimensity 9000 before, it landed this technology.
The mechanics of this technology are not complicated, and it's a bit like the mobile version of DLSS.
When playing a game, the processor first uses the GPU to render a low-resolution image.
Then, through the NPU and algorithm, the details close to the original resolution are added.
To put it bluntly, it is to divide the work that the GPU did alone into the NPU.
In this way, the problems of insufficient GPU performance and high power consumption can also be effectively solved.
(Kirin 990 5G Chip Logic Topology)
Considering the GPU performance of the current Kirin chip, there is indeed a gap with the flagship chips of Qualcomm and Fa Ge.
It is most suitable to take the technical direction of GPU+NPU combination to solve the problems of unstable frame rate and high power consumption of games.
Talking about a completely new iteration of the chip, it's time to take a look at other configurations.
The Huawei Mate 70 series will come in four versions, with the Standard straight screen and the Pro, Pro + and Ultra Master Editions with four isodepth slightly curved screens.
For example, variable aperture, two-way satellite communication, star flash, periscope telephoto, full-blood wireless charging, etc., are all standard features of the Mate series.
It's a pity that this time it's still the main 1.5K resolution.
However, in some peripheral configurations, the Huawei Mate 70 series also gives better hardware.
For example, wide-area ultrasonic fingerprint unlocking.
As early as a few months ago, Huawei's self-developed ultrasonic fingerprint patent scheme was announced.
But retroactively to the filing date, which is July 4, 2023.
Judging from the length of the project, there is a high probability that the Mate 70 series will be able to eat this wide-area ultrasonic fingerprint.
The exterior continues to maintain the three-cutout hole on the front and the design of the round module on the back.
What's more, it's still about making changes in the color scheme and small details.
拍照这块主要是主摄会有变化，预计 Mate 70、Pro 和 Pro + 都会用 OV50H，非凡大师版则换成 OV50K。
That's right, it's the same main camera of the Honor Magic6 Ultra.
Equipped with LOFIC technology, it has an ultra-high dynamic range of 15EV.
With Huazi's XMAGE and iterative algorithm, if Brother Ji says that he is not looking forward to it, it will definitely be false.
That's pretty much the end of the hardware part.
Next, let's focus on the new "Pure-Blood Hongmeng".
更先进的 HarmonyOS NEXT
Although at the HDC conference, Huawei has shown us a part of the new features about pure-blooded Hongmeng.
However, due to the limited time, the official will definitely not be able to elaborate on all the features one by one.
As for the rest of a lot of features, Brother Ji will pick a few users with strong perception to talk about.
The first is the live photos.
Although this feature has been available on Android for many years, it has always only supported local album viewing, and cannot be uploaded to third-party apps.
This is also an old problem for Android phones for many years.
Even if they do adaptation, Android manufacturers can only talk about it on an app-by-app basis.
HarmonyOS NEXT simply makes its own dynamic photo interface, which can be called by all third-party applications to upload, store, and view dynamic photos.
In addition, there is an obvious legacy problem on Android's side - the data of the official game server and the channel server are not interoperable.
I guess a lot of friends have encountered it, such as a mobile game in the mobile app store.
As a result, I played for a month and found out that this ™ is not an official server.
On HarmonyOS NEXT, the official solution is:
The original Huawei channel server players will automatically transfer their game progress and assets after logging in.
In the future, there will only be one version of the game on HarmonyOS NEXT.
On the login interface, we can freely choose to log in with the channel server or the official server account.
However, judging from the PPT, the two games currently support data exchange, and the rest depends on what other game manufacturers do.
Including the details of the system interface, Huawei has made a lot of experience improvements.
For example, the broadcast control center supports multi-entry switching of songs, and videos also support high-quality casting.
More notifications are overlaid in the Live Window, which can be displayed on the lock screen, off screen, Notification Center, Status Bar, and more.
Even more heavyweight.
现在 HarmonyOS NEXT 把扫码入口给整合好了。
In the past, if we wanted to scan the code, we always had to open the corresponding App to scan the corresponding QR code.
For example, open WeChat and scan the WeChat QR code.
Open Alipay and scan the Alipay QR code.
But now that the times have changed, the system directly has a built-in [one-step scan] with high permissions, and you can directly scan the QR code of any mainstream app to jump to the designated interface.
It is equivalent to the system helping us omit the steps of finding the corresponding app by ourselves.
I have to say, this is the benefit of the new system.
There is no mountain code, and you don't have to look ahead and backward to make new features.
Even the underlying layers such as mobile phones, PCs, car machines, TVs, and home appliances are based on the OpenHarmony bottom layer.
This makes each device no longer have a system, only the operation mode and use logic are different.
Recently, Brother Ji also saw that QT has cooperated with Huawei to open the OpenHarmony version.
This is a cross-platform development framework that can help developers quickly migrate and develop more HarmonyOS native software.
You may think it's strange.
Let me give you an example, WeChat on Linux is currently developed based on QT.
Including the WPS Galaxy Edition, it is also rewritten with QT+ArkUI.
Therefore, it is foreseeable that more Windows applications developed based on the QT framework will be ported to HarmonyOS in the future.
In my opinion, this wave of cooperation is mainly good for HarmonyOS PC.
As for how many big moves and surprises Huazi still hid, let's see as we go.
The picture comes from the Internet
