Huawei Australia has announced its next generation smartphone – the Huawei Mate 9 – will launch in Q1 2017.
The Mate 9’s Kirin 960 chipset is said to put faster computing at the fingertips of the consumer, and its innovative, intuitive EMUI 5.0 learns and adapts to usage behaviours – using the latest in artificial intelligence – optimising performance throughout the lifetime of the device.
With the Kirin 960, the CPU performance is up 18 per cent and the GPU performance is up 180 per cent1. Additionally, the chipset adapts and understands usage behaviours with 1,000 application acceleration functions. This enables an increase in operation smoothness both in system response and in graphic read/write speed. The Huawei Mate 9 also supports faster communication rates and better network signal connectivity up to 600mbps.
The handset combines a 4000 mAh high-density battery and SuperCharge technology for a longer lasting battery life, claims the manufacturer. Huawei’s SuperCharge technology charges faster and safer to keep users connected.
It also features a second-generation Leica dual-lens camera with 2x hybrid zoom. The cameras comprise a 12-megapixel RGB sensor and a 20-megapixel monochrome sensor that work together, supported by image fusion algorithms, to capture and reproduce the most stunning details. Wide aperture effect delivers the best shallow depth of field in the market and industry first pixel binning technology works with the optical image stabilization to deliver superior night show capability. The Huawei Mate 9 also includes 4K video capabilities, a five-axis stabiliser and a 720p slow motion mode that shoots at 240fps.
