Huawei Mate 70 series will likely use a powerful Kirin chip that might challenge Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 or Dimensity 9400-powered devices. That says a Weibo tipster, after evaluating the launch timeline of new processors as well as flagship devices.

As noted by tipster @DigitalChatStation, the Dimensity 9400 and Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 processors could launch in October this year. Many premium smartphones will be released equipped with these chips by the end of Q4 or early 2025.

The same time frame is also set for the Mate 70 series. Huawei has not mentioned the exact launch month. But it said that the flagship lineup will launch in Q4 2024.

Estimating the overall scenario, the tipster said that there could be tough competition in the smartphone market. Probably, Huawei Mate 70 models (especially high-end variants) might challenge Dimensity 9400 and Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 devices.

The Chinese OEM still lags when it comes to advanced smartphone chips. The tech world is running behind the 2nm/3nm process. However, Huawei continues to struggle to develop 5nm chipsets due to a lack of appropriate chipmaking equipment.

Yet some rumors claim that a 5nm Kirin chip is underway and could show up with the Mate 70 series. This alleged processor expected to be more robust, and energy efficient than all the previous Kirin chip variants. Read more details HERE.

Another reason that makes the Mate 70 series appear as a tough rival for others is HarmonyOS NEXT. The lineup will come with the newest software system out of the box. Huawei claims this to be the real operating system, without any Android part.

HarmonyOS NEXT focuses on six major aspects: native apps, security, smoothness, intelligence, interconnectivity, and refinements. During the HarmonyOS NEXT developer beta release, Huawei introduced many useful app optimizations and AI features that can enhance the user experience over the previous upgrades.

Camera and Satellite features are the next in the queue. Pura 70 Ultra recently grabbed the “best camera” crown. Huawei aims to maintain this trend with the next flagship.

The company may also upgrade the satellite communication tech for the Mate 70 series. There could be more surprises than ‘SMS/calling or image sending’ capabilities. Both these sections are currently a secret but we may find new revelations in the time ahead.

Overall, the Huawei Mate 70 series might catch up with its rivals in the consumer market to some extent.
