Before this official announcement, rumors suggested that the Pocket 2 Premium Edition would feature a new chip, possibly the Kirin 9020A.

Specifications:

The Huawei Pocket 2 is powered by the Kirin 9000s SoC. Its display setup includes a 6.94-inch OLED primary panel (120Hz refresh, 300Hz touch sampling, 1440Hz PWM dimming) and a 1.15-inch OLED secondary display (60Hz refresh, 120Hz touch response).

The Pocket 2 uses HarmonyOS 4.0 and comes in 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB storage. It has four rear cameras: a 50MP main with OIS, a 12MP ultrawide, an 8MP telephoto, and a 2MP hyperspectral camera.

The Pocket 2 features a 10.7MP ultrawide front camera, a 4520mAh battery with 66W charging, and an IPX8 water resistance rating. It also offers unique functions like UV protection testing, two-way Beidou satellite messaging, and customizable pet themes for the folding screen.

Huawei is integrating its connectivity technologies directly into the HarmonyOS 6 user interface. The company has officially detailed a new Control Center toggle that lets the system intelligently switch between the high-bandwidth of NearLink and the broad compatibility of Bluetooth, creating a single, unified wireless experience.

In accordance with the previous details, the HarmonyOS 6.0 NearLink & Bluetooth  switch will show up in the Control Center. It merges two different features into one tab.

Earlier, the functions of this feature were unclear. But Huawei revealed the details of this NearLink + Bluetooth button. The company mentioned the following points:

  • When a NearLink device is connected, the Control Center will display the name of the respective NearLink device.
  • Look in the Control Center to see your connected Bluetooth device.

  •  To manage both NearLink and Bluetooth devices, simply press and hold the “NearLink | Bluetooth” switch.

This new feature merges both tools into one, letting you connect to nearby devices effortlessly and without interruption.

Though no additional information was provided, this strategic enhancement serves as a strong indicator of Huawei’s future roadmap for its ecosystem.

Having successfully rolled out HarmonyOS NEXT to over 20 million devices, Huawei is leveraging that momentum to ensure its next software iteration is its most interesting and user-centric yet.

The Chinese phone maker will not only tweak the UI elements of the device but will also boost the security features and other significant aspects inside the handset.

Huawei Mate 80 Pro’s Unique Camera Setup Appears in Leak

Published

Huawei Mate 80

The Huawei Mate 70 Pro+ had a square camera with four lenses. But a new live image suggests the Mate 80 Pro is getting a major redesign.

New imagery purportedly showcasing the Huawei Mate 80 series has surfaced online, courtesy of Weibo leaker @DirectorShiGuan. The leak includes a photo revealing the back panel designs for the entire lineup—the standard Mate 80, and two Pro variants—as well as additional images highlighting the available color options.”

In a departure from tradition, a new leak shows the Huawei Mate 80 Pro ditching the signature circular camera ring that typically houses a square sensor arrangement.”

 

In accordance with the image, the camera setup is surrounded by a stainless steel-like thick rim. This rim has a small black buckle at the top, probably having a sensor.

The camera island is organized with a primary large square sensor at the top center, accompanied by two pill-shaped sensors for enhanced light and color capture. The lower section is dedicated to two additional lenses in circular housings.

These could be the main and ultrawide snapper. The giant lens at the top can be a brand-new periscope camera with staggering imaging features. But the details are unknown at present.

A standout lemon yellow color option is shown off in the second leak. The images also confirm the side button layout: two volume rockers with a power button underneath.

The overall design remains unchanged, keeping the classic right-angle frame, slim build, and curved corners. Nevertheless, it’s unclear how accurate these new leaked features are, even if the camera redesign appears promising.”

Huawei Mate 70 Premium

The Huawei Mate 70 Premium is gearing up for its launch, and the buzz is all about its processor! Fresh online leaks suggest this isn’t just another Kirin chip, but something new. Let’s dive into the details.

In accordance with SuperDimensional, the Huawei Mate 70 Premium will use a processor that recently debuted in a tablet, where it has demonstrated capable and efficient performance.

The details are now clear. The chip is the Kirin 9010B, and its first launch platform was the specialized MatePad Mini Reading model. This strategic move introduces a new variant, as the standard tablet is equipped with the Kirin 9010.

So, what’s actually under the hood of the Kirin 9010B? We don’t have the full CPU blueprint yet, but it’s already looking like it might be faster than the chip in the Pura 70 Ultra. Stay tuned—the details should be dropping any day now!

The leak introduces a key variable, suggesting the Mate 70 Premium may feature either the Kirin 9010B or a 9010S chipset. While both variants represent a significant performance uplift over the standard Kirin 9010, the specific model destined for the phone remains unconfirmed.

Hence, we have to wait for some more time to get accurate information on this subject.

The leaks keep coming! A tipster just spilled details on the Pura X Premium’s chipset, and it looks like the company is building a whole new series focused on premium specs without the premium price tag.

The upcoming Pura X Premium will likely use the Kirin 9020A chipset, a step up from the original’s 9020 5G, similar to the processor in the Mate 70 Pro Premium Edition.

Official announcements for this month are still pending, but details are beginning to emerge about the company’s approaching new handset.
