Huawei Mate 70 series starts pre-sale, and there are long queues in many stores across the country

On November 18, Huawei Mate 70 series mobile phones officially launched pre-sale, launching four models of Mate 70, Mate 70 Pro, Mate 70 Pro + and Mate 70 RS Extraordinary Master, which will be officially released on November 26.

Judging from the market reaction after the opening of the pre-sale, the Mate 70 series has become the most talked-about flagship new machine this year. At 14 pm today, the interface news reporter saw in the Huawei global flagship store in Wangfujing, Beijing, that consumers waiting for reservations outside the store had formed a long queue. The on-site staff said that since the pre-sale started at 12:08, more than 400 people have been lined up.

Several consumers who queued at the scene told Interface News that they all came to the store to queue up as soon as they saw the pre-sale news in the morning. In addition, there are long-awaited scalpers and throngs of people queuing outside the store.

At a number of Huawei stores such as Shenzhen Vientiane Tiandi, people waiting for reservations are also lined up outside the store. Staff said that currently only 0 yuan can register the purchase intention, and each person is limited to one registration, and there is no guarantee of stock, but those who book earlier have the opportunity to get the actual machine earlier.

The online booking situation is also quite hot. As of press time, in the official Huawei mall, the number of reservations for the Mate 70 series has exceeded 1.13 million. The online booking rules are the same as offline, with zero threshold reservations, but there is no guarantee of stock.

According to the official materials, the Mate 70 series continues the symmetrical large circular camera module design of previous generations, while the RS Extraordinary Master Edition continues to use the octagonal design. At present, Huawei has not announced the specific performance parameters of the new machine, but it has been reported that the series will use the side fingerprint scheme.

Another upgrade of the Mate 70 series is to be equipped with the Pure Blood Hongmeng system (HarmonyOS NEXT). However, since the Pure Blood Hongmeng ecosystem is still being improved, Huawei is likely to adopt a dual system mode, which is convenient for users to switch at any time.

Compared with the tighter production capacity of the Mate 60 series, the Mate 70 series has increased a lot. Interface News previously learned from the supply chain that the full life cycle stocking of the Mate 70 series is expected to be about 15 million units, which is about 20% higher than that of the Mate 60 series. According to the Science and Technology Innovation Board Daily, the planned output of this series of parts has increased by about 50% compared with the same period of the Mate 60.

In the context of the general downturn in the smartphone market, Huawei remains optimistic about the sales of the new phone, and dealers are also waiting for this model to re-create a wealth myth like the Mate 60.

Many dealers interviewed believe that the chip and the price will be the two important factors affecting the sales of the Mate 70 series. The starting price of the Mate 60 series is 5,499 yuan, and whether the Mate 70 series will increase the price on the basis of the general price increase of domestic mobile phones this year will also be the main focus of the 26th conference.
