The Huawei Mate 60 and Mate 60 Pro / Pro+ / RS is a high-end 2023 smartphone product of the Chinese Huawei corporation from its Huawei Mate series. [3] It has a Kirin 9000s SoC chipset designed by HiSilicon and produced by the SMIC foundry. [4] The device supports satellite network communications and 5G. [5]

Technology

Processors

The Huawei Mate 60 is the first phone to use new Chinese 7-nm microprocessor technology chips that were developed despite the imposition of US sanctions on the company. [6] [7]

The CPU HiSilicon Kirin 9000S is a SoC supposed to consist of four high-performance cores (one at up to 2.62 GHz and three at up to 2,150 MHz) that is based on HiSilicon's custom TaiShan microarchitecture and four energy-efficient cores (up to 1,530 MHz) based on ARM's Cortex 510. [8] The smartphone also uses the Maleoon 910 graphics processing unit operating at up to 750 MHz. [8]

Network communications

According to third-party testing, although after plugging in the SIM card, the network standard indication of the phone does not show that it's 5G, and Huawei does not mention supporting the 5G in the parameter details, the actual network speed test shows that its performance is quite in 5G. [9] Reports also believe that it has the ability to support 5G. [5] [10] [11]

On the contrary, Huawei focuses more on promoting its capabilities as a satellite communication terminal. The Mate 60 series smartphone supports satellite call functions through the Tiantong system, [12] [13] [14] [15] and short message sending and receiving functions through the Beidou system. [16] [17]

In addition, the Mate 60 series smartphone also supports NearLink, a short-range wireless communication technology that combines the features of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi with enhanced prerequisites, and can be used in future on Internet of Things, Internet of Vehicles and other scenarios. [18] [19]

Camera

At the end of 2023, Huawei Mate 60 Pro+ was the best smartphone camera in the world according to DxOMark. [20] [21]

Reception

The launch of the Huawei Mate 60 garnered significant attention, and was widely touted as a victory against US government sanctions intended to stop Chinese companies from producing or obtaining advanced chips. [22] [23] Huawei's breakthrough raised concerns within the US government that technological restrictions alone were unable to prevent Huawei from obtaining advanced chips: [24] the U.S. Department of Commerce launched an investigation into the situation at the end of 2023. [25]

On 5 March 2024, a report by Counterpoint Research claimed that although overall Chinese smartphone sales were 7% lower in the first six weeks of 2024, compared with the same period in 2023, Apple’s recently launched flagship iPhone 15 was selling exceptionally badly, with Apple’s overall smartphone unit sales falling 24% in the relevant period, because buyers were turning towards devices made by Huawei. [26] According to Counterpoint Research, Huawei saw unit sales rise by 64% in the period. [27]

Impact in China

Huawei had told their customers that stores in Shenzhen would only have a certain amount of phones to sell, which resulted in long lines outside of every store. [28] On August 30, 2023, Huawei Mall launched the Mate 60 pre-order page. [29] On September 3rd of that same year, the Mate 60 Pro was fully on-sale. At 18:08, online platforms such as Huawei Mall, Taobao, Tmall, and JD.com sold out all available colors in just one minute after opening sales to the public. There were also lines of people waiting to buy at Huawei stores across China. [30] On September 8, Huawei Mall launched the Mate 60 Pro+ pre-order page. [31]
