Huawei’s latest flagship, the Mate 70 series, has become a massive hit in China, with sales soaring and setting new benchmarks.
Renowned tipster “Digital Chat Station” revealed that the series outperformed its predecessor, the Mate 60, by a significant margin within just two weeks of launch.
Breaking Sales Records
Industry experts predict the Mate 70 series will surpass 10 million units, highlighting its immense popularity. Unlike the Mate 60, which faced supply shortages, the Mate 70 has benefited from better production capabilities, enabling Huawei to meet high demand.
Despite increased production, the series remains in short supply, with premium models like the Pro, Pro+, and Ultimate Design editions selling out quickly and fetching higher prices on secondary markets.
Huawei has responded by ramping up production by 30%, reflecting the series’ exceptional performance.
Comparing to the Mate 60 Series
The Mate 60 series, which debuted unexpectedly last year, sold over 14 million units by mid-November. However, supply constraints limited its full potential. With the Mate 70 series addressing these issues, it’s poised to exceed expectations further.
Impact on Huawei’s Market Standing
Huawei continues to challenge Apple in the high-end smartphone market. In Q3 2024, Huawei was the only brand to rival Apple’s dominance in the premium segment. The Mate 70 series, alongside the Pura 70, has driven significant sales, cementing Huawei’s position as a leader in innovation and cutting-edge technology.
As Huawei maintains its momentum, the Mate 70 series is set to remain one of the year’s most successful smartphone launches.
