Editorial report
Huawei Mate 70 Air 12 GB / 256 GB / China technical sheet
The Huawei Mate 70 Air suits buyers who want a very large display in an unusually thin body. Its main trade-off is the lack of direct OS updates: it runs HarmonyOS 5, but direct system updates are not available.
The 7″ LTPO OLED display is among the best of its time for peak brightness at 4000 nits, while its 437 ppi density is better than most phones launched around the same time. Its 91.5% usable surface and 6.6 mm thickness are also among the best. IP68 and IP69 protection resist water and dust. At 208 g, its weight is typical.
This version pairs 12 GB of RAM with 512 GB of storage. The Mate 70 Air is also sold with 16 GB of RAM and with 256 GB of storage. Its AnTuTu score of 1,248,520 is better than most phones of its time. For photography, the main camera’s 1/1.3″ sensor is among the best, it has optical stabilization, and the telephoto camera provides 3x optical zoom.
The 6500 mAh battery is typical, but 66 W charging is better than most phones launched around the same time. Wi-Fi 7, NFC, satellite connectivity and dual-SIM support put its connectivity above most phones of its time. With an overall NeoScore of 7.9, the Huawei Mate 70 Air is better than most phones of its time and best suits buyers who prioritize a large display, camera hardware and a thin design.
