Huawei Mate 70 series may come with ultrasonic fingerprint scanners

Huawei focuses on ensuring high security standards with its new flagship Mate 70 series. Security solutions are now one of the prominent features of today’s premium devices that come with powerful processors such as Dimensity 9400 and Snapdragon 8 Elite. Recently, various brands have started to use ultrasonic sensor technology, which makes fingerprint verification systems more secure and sensitive. According to leaked information, Huawei’s Mate 70 series may also be a part of this trend and feature this innovative technology to improve security.

Details shared especially on the Chinese Weibo platform show that the Mate 70 series can be equipped with an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner developed by Qualcomm. According to the information provided by Smart Pikachu, one of the famous technology leak accounts, this series will be offered to users with an ultrasonic sensor, just like the newly introduced OnePlus 13 model. Ultrasonic sensors are considered more secure than traditional optical fingerprint scanners because they have the ability to detect fingerprints in three dimensions. This provides greater security and accuracy for premium device users. The fact that this technology is preferred especially in upper segment models shows that it can be spread to other brands in the future.

Recently, it has been seen that many major technology brands have started to use ultrasonic fingerprint sensors in their flagships. As we enter 2024, it is estimated that this security technology will be included in models such as Oppo Find X8 Ultra, Xiaomi 15 Ultra, Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra and Vivo X200 Ultra. These sensors offered by Qualcomm aim to bring a new security standard to the industry, especially in under-screen fingerprint technology. With this innovative step, Huawei wants to gain an advantage over its competitors in the premium segment and attract users seeking security.

In addition to its security-oriented innovations, the Mate 70 series is expected to have remarkable features on the software side. It is claimed that Huawei’s new flagship may come with dual operating system options. The Mate 70 series, which is reported to use HarmonyOS Next as the main operating system, may also have Android support. HarmonyOS Next stands out as the latest product of the project to develop an operating system independent of Android, which Huawei has been working on for a long time. Although this move is seen as a step towards leaving Huawei’s Android platform, continuing Android support can provide users with access to various applications.

Huawei will also change its camera design with the Mate 70 series

Another leaked information about the Mate 70 series was the changes made in the camera design. It is stated that the camera layout of the new series will also be offered with an updated design. Possible changes to the camera are considered as an innovation compatible with the strong performance that Huawei offers in the field of photography. On the other hand, there is no detailed information yet about the hardware features of the device, such as battery capacity and charging technology. However, Huawei aims to meet user expectations in this area as well.
