Recently, rumors surfaced about Huawei‘s plan to introduce a new smartphone under its Wiko ecosystem brand. Now, new speculation from reliable tipster Beijing Digital Master hints that this smartphone might be priced at around 2000 yuan, approximately $280. The rumored Wiko line, known as Xingyao in Chinese, could serve as a means for Huawei to extend the reach of its HarmonyOS operating system to budget-conscious users. Recently, a Wiko smartphone appeared on 3C certification, suggesting it would feature 40W charging.
Details about this upcoming device remain
scarce at the moment, but more information is expected to surface soon.
According to our previous report, the smartphone could be a rebranded version
of the Enjoy 70 Pro launched last month.
For a quick recap, the Enjoy 70 Pro
features a 6.7-inch FHD+ display with a centered punch-hole design. Since it is
a budget phone, the screen doesn’t offer a higher refresh rate, but
interestingly has an always-on display (AOD) feature. Under the hood, it houses an octa-core
Qualcomm Snapdragon 680 chip and runs on HarmonyOS 4. It is paired with 8GB of
RAM and 128/256GB of storage.
In terms of photography, the smartphone
features a 108MP primary camera, accompanied by a 2MP depth sensor and an 8MP
selfie shooter. Connectivity options include support for dual SIM, 4G,
dual-band WiFi, Bluetooth 5.0, GNSS, and USB Type-C. For biometric
authentication, it offers a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, while its power is
fueled by a sizable 5,000mAh battery with 40W wired charging support.
The Huawei Enjoy 70 Pro comes in two
memory configurations: 8GB RAM with 128GB storage and 8GB RAM with 256GB
storage, priced at ¥ 1,499 and ¥ 1,699 respectively. Color options include
Emerald Green, Snowy White, and Obsidian Black.
