We yesterday took a look at the new Motorola Edge 70, the company’s take on the iPhone Air, and today brings another Android contender, the Huawei Mate 70 Air.
Although 1mm thicker than the iPhone Air and 30% heavier, it does pack four cameras and twice as much battery into an extremely sleek-looking device …
We noted yesterday that the Motorola Edge 70 has three rear cameras, a punch hole front camera, an embedded fingerprint reader in the display, and twice the claimed battery life of the iPhone Air.
The Huawei Mate 70 Air goes one better on the camera front with four rear cameras and a huge 6,500 mAh battery. The company took pot-shots at the iPhone Air when announcing it.
The Mate 70 Air falls into the league of new slim devices, but without sacrificing any specifications, which isn’t the case with the likes of the iPhone Air and Samsung’s new Edge device. Instead, the Mate 70 Air enhanced the offering, starting with its display, a full-view screen with a high refresh rate and a wide aspect ratio, which makes the content look crisp and bright from different angles. Samsung and Apple both disappointed with their slim smartphones in terms of battery experience, but not Huawei. The Mate 70 Air packs a 6500mAh silicon carbon-anode battery […] Furthermore, the charging experience will be ensured with a 66W superfast charger
Huawei claims 50 hours of battery life, around twice that of the iPhone Air.
There are four rear cameras, including what the company refers to as a “primary colour camera” designed for maximum quality in night and other low-light conditions.
A 50MP main camera, 12MP RYYB telephoto camera, 8MP ultra-wide-angle camera, and a 1.5 million multi-spectral channels red maple primary color camera.
The front camera is a punch hole design, just like the Motorola.
Again, we’re not going to see any Apple fans rushing out to buy this, but it’s great to see competition in this area as the Cupertino company reportedly works on a second generation model.
