After a busy and above all controversial end to 2023 due to the launch of the Huawei Mate 60 Pro, and in a context marked by the commercial confrontation between the United States and China, Huawei is facing the home stretch of this year with the world’s first folding triptych, the Huawei Mate XT. This is not the only thing expected from the company which is reborn as the hope of its native country: the Huawei Mate 70 Pro It’s imminent.
Some of its specs have recently leaked, including a new 5-nanometer processor that might not be popular across the pond. And now the information from its supply chain keeps coming. They claim that mass production has startedalthough it was not free from certain delays and complications.
Difficulties with the operating system and with a chip that the United States will look askance at
Fleas Purchased from HiSiliconowned by Huawei, gives a lot to talk about: the Kirin 9000S of the Mate 60 Pro was very criticized in the United States because they did not find an explanation of how it was manufactured. However, in terms of performance, it was far behind its competitors, as demonstrated in benchmarks. The same ones who determined little improvement in the raw power of a Kirin 9010 included in the Huawei Pura 70.
From now on, the Huawei Mate 70 will equip the successor awaited by Chinese industry, which seeks technological self-sufficiency for its nation. With Huawei having a lot to do with this story, it’s only natural that their upcoming flagships will generate a lot of interest.
Huawei Central echoes reports from a local Chinese media outlet, which reveals supply chain data. It claims that mass production of the Huawei Mate 70 family has started on a large scale, the Chinese company accelerated the process after gathering the components.
Thus, speculation about its imminent launch seems to be ending soon, although we must pay attention to certain details that we are told from China: the release date planned for November. Likewise, the manufacturer seems to have ensured higher production than its predecessors: around 40 or 50% more than in the previous Mate 60.

This is not to say that some difficulties have not arisen, as they did last year, due to lack of supply. In fact, the difference in launch between the previous series – which arrived in August – and the new one which has not yet been marketed, shows Huawei’s caution. They don’t want to repeat the same mistakes.
Hardware and software created obstacles.according to the source: the Mate 70 series takes time to adapt to the “full-fledged” operating system, HarmonyOS Next. It will start updating existing phones in the Huawei portfolio in less than two weeks, but in these Mate 70s it caused problems during software development.
On the hardware side, the next-generation Kirin 5G chip would have caused some headaches for production problems. Regardless, these issues would have been resolved if mass production of the new phones had started, as the company’s home country claims. We will remain attentive to any movement, as well as the deployment of the certified 100% self-developed operating system in China.
