Islamabad, Mar 1: Huawei has officially unveiled the Mate 70 Pro Premium Edition, set to launch in China on March 5. While the “Premium” label suggests upgrades, this variant actually features an underclocked chipset, making it more budget-friendly than the standard Mate 70 Pro.
Stunning Design and Immersive Display
The Mate 70 Pro Premium Edition boasts a 6.9-inch OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, ensuring a fluid and vibrant visual experience. Retaining the elegant design of its predecessor, the device sports a curved-edge screen and a sleek body. Available in four striking colors—Green, Purple, White, and Black—it offers a sophisticated aesthetic appeal.
Performance and Software
Unlike the standard Mate 70 Pro, which runs on the Kirin 9020 chipset, the Premium Edition features an underclocked version of the same processor. Geekbench benchmarks reveal a single-core score of 1,450 and a multi-core score of 3,793, positioning it in the mid-range performance category. Despite the toned-down processor, the phone still delivers smooth multitasking with 12GB of RAM. It runs on Huawei’s HarmonyOS, ensuring a seamless experience, though it lacks Google services.
