Huawei Officially Announces the Mate 70 Air

Huawei has officially unveiled its long-awaited smartphone, the Mate 70 Air. Combining elegance and performance, the device stands out with its ultra-slim body, strong battery capacity, and premium hardware.

This new addition to Huawei’s flagship lineup pushes the brand’s design philosophy further — focusing on minimal thickness without compromising power or endurance.

Huawei Mate 70 Air Specifications

The Mate 70 Air comes with an impressively 6.6 mm thin body and weighs just 208 grams, making it one of the slimmest smartphones on the market. Although slightly thicker than the 5.6 mm iPhone Air, Huawei manages to balance slimness and performance effectively.

Powering the device is either the Kirin 9020A or Kirin 9020B chipset, depending on the model. Users can choose between 12 GB or 16 GB of RAM, ensuring smooth multitasking and strong performance across demanding apps.

Display and Camera Setup

The Huawei Mate 70 Air features a stunning 6.9-inch OLED display with a 120 Hz refresh rate, delivering vibrant colors and ultra-smooth visuals. This panel offers excellent clarity, brightness, and contrast, placing it among the best in its class.

On the back, Huawei opts for a circular camera module housing a versatile triple-lens setup:

  • 50 MP main sensor for sharp, detailed shots

  • 8 MP ultra-wide lens for landscape and group photos

  • 12 MP telephoto camera for zoom and portrait photography

Together, these lenses provide users with a flagship-level photography experience that’s both powerful and adaptable.

Battery and Additional Features

Despite its slim profile, Huawei has managed to include a massive 6,500 mAh silicon-carbon battery, offering long-lasting endurance. The phone also supports 66W fast charging, allowing users to quickly recharge and get back to their day.

Out of the box, the Mate 70 Air runs on HarmonyOS 5.1, Huawei’s latest operating system. The device also comes with IP68/IP69 water and dust resistance, ensuring durability in everyday conditions.

Huawei Mate 70 Air Price

The starting price for the Mate 70 Air is set at around $590, positioning it competitively within the premium mid-range smartphone segment.

While Huawei has not yet confirmed an international release, global availability is expected to be announced soon.
