Sep 10th: Huawei's Triple-foldable Smartphone Compete with iPhone 16
In the current domestic mobile phone industry, Huawei is regarded as one of the few brands that can compete head-on with Apple. On September 2, 2024, Huawei announced that it would hold the "Huawei Sees Extraordinary" brand ceremony and Hongmeng Intelligent Driving new product launch conference at 14:30 on September 10. Coincidentally, Apple also plans to hold an Apple special event at 1 am on the same day, when it will officially unveil the highly anticipated iPhone 16 series. The press conferences of the two technology giants met again, which attracted widespread attention from the industry and consumers.


Looking back at its market performance in recent years, Huawei seems to have always regarded challenging Apple as the key direction of its own development. Phonefix is ​​very proud to be a Chinese brand. For example, Huawei's Mate series and Apple's iPhone usually choose similar time windows to release new products. In 2022, Huawei's Mate 50 series was released on September 6, while Apple's iPhone 14 was unveiled two days later on September 8; in 2023, Huawei's Mate 60 series will be launched from the end of August to the end of September, and Apple's iPhone 15 series will be released on September 15 and go on sale a week later.


However, despite the outside world's expectations for the Huawei Mate 70 series, according to industry insiders, the Huawei Mate 70 series is not expected to be released in September 2024 because the adaptation of the Harmony NEXT system is still in progress.

Huawei's new product:
According to Huawei's official news, the official name of Huawei's three-fold screen mobile phone is: HUAWEI Mate XT | ULTIMATE DESIGN, which can also be referred to as Huawei Mate XT Extraordinary Master. At present, Huawei has not officially announced the appearance design and specific configuration of Huawei Mate XT Extraordinary Master.


Referring to the current folding screen mobile phone industry and Huawei's style, CNMO speculates that the starting price of Huawei's three-folding screen mobile phone may exceed 15,000 yuan, making it one of Huawei's highest-end mobile phones.

Huawei nova 13 series

According to the news, the Huawei nova 13 series was originally scheduled to be released in June or July this year, but was postponed to September this year due to other reasons. Referring to the previous generation products, the Huawei nova 13 series is expected to provide four models, namely Huawei nova 13 Vitality Edition, Huawei nova 13, Huawei nova 13 Pro, and Huawei nova 13 Ultra, covering the price range of 2,000 to 5,000 yuan.

At present, Huawei has not yet disclosed the configuration information related to the Huawei nova 13 series.

In addition, some high-end models of the Huawei nova 13 series will also support satellite communication technology, or will be equipped with Tiantong + Beidou satellite messaging dual systems.

Apple's new products:

iPhone 16 series
At the launch event on September 10, Apple's most important product was undoubtedly the iPhone 16 series. It is expected that the iPhone 16 series will still provide four models this year, namely iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max. Among them, iPhone 16 Plus may be renamed.

Although its screen refresh rate remains at 60Hz, it has the latest Apple A18 chip built in, supports Apple Intelligence smart technology, and the camera system uses a 12-megapixel lens, supports two times optical zoom, and is compatible with the Wi-Fi 6E network standard. The built-in battery capacity is 3561mAh, and three storage capacity options are available: 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB. The starting price is $799.

iPhone 16 Plus (name may change) will be equipped with a larger 6.7-inch display and also uses a 60Hz refresh rate. This model is also equipped with the Apple A18 chip, a 12-megapixel camera system, supports two times optical zoom, and is compatible with the Wi-Fi 6E network. Compared with the standard version, the Plus version has a larger 4006mAh battery capacity and offers the same storage options, starting at $899.

iPhone 16 Pro is an advanced choice for professional users. It is equipped with a 6.3-inch display and supports ProMotion adaptive refresh rate technology up to 120Hz. This device uses the more powerful A18 Pro chip, is equipped with a 48-megapixel advanced camera system, supports five times optical zoom, and is one of the first devices to support the Wi-Fi 7 standard. It has a built-in 3355mAh battery, storage options include 256GB, 512GB and 1TB, and the starting price is $1099.

As the top model in the series, the iPhone 16 Pro Max is equipped with a 6.9-inch ultra-large Display and also supports a 120Hz refresh rate.

It has a built-in 4676mAh battery and the same storage capacity options as the Pro version, starting at $1199.

In addition to the above configuration upgrades, the iPhone 16 series will also introduce some new design elements, such as a dedicated physical camera button and a battery with a built-in metal casing. These changes not only improve the durability and functionality of the device, but also provide users with a more convenient photo-taking experience.

Apple Watch
At the upcoming Apple special event, in addition to the highly anticipated iPhone 16 series, Apple is expected to launch a new smartwatch - Apple Watch Series 10.

AirPods
As expected, the AirPods series will also have a place at Apple's special event on September 9. Apple is expected to release two new mid-range and entry-level AirPods 4 options (non-Pro version) in an effort to continue to strengthen its competitiveness in the true wireless headset market.

System and Software
Shortly after the event, Apple will release the Gold Master version (GM version) of iOS 18, iPadOS 18, macOS 15, watchOS 11, tvOS 18, and visionOS 2 to developers as part of its final round of beta testing. These new operating systems are expected to be launched with new devices before September 20.

It is foreseeable that on September 10 this year, the technology and digital circles will usher in a carnival. The only drawback is that the Huawei Mate 70 series is likely to be absent, and netizens interested in this phone will have to wait for a while. Phonefix will continue to track the latest news about iPhone 16.
