When Huawei launched the Mate 60 devices, Kirin chipsets equipped with 5G modems appeared under the hood of smartphones again, meaning that the manufacturer used its own chipsets instead of Qualcomm’s solutions. The Chinese company is creating another internally developed component, which will be none other than the sensor that works in the P70 cameras.
Huawei has been using Sony sensors in its phones since time immemorial, but it may end this habit soon. the Fixed digital focus A leaker recently reported that Sony and Huawei have not renewed their contract and that Huawei does not have additional stock of Sony sensors.
From this, the insider deduced that members of the Huawei P70 series may have cameras inside that internally developed sensors can serve. Independence is not at all new in the ranks of Huawei, after ending its cooperation with Leica, they created the XMAGE division, whose platform includes a dedicated NPU.
Huawei is also working on other components behind the scenes. A new optical fingerprint reader module is also said to be in development for the P70 series. Naturally, the company has not yet commented on these reports, but next time it holds a larger presentation, it will definitely report on the development of internal components. It is possible that such an event will be held at the beginning of next year at the earliest.
Huawei started developing its own alternatives because it had to. It seems that the US trade ban could be beneficial for the Chinese company in the long run, as it could become more independent. To what extent, it will only become clear when the P70 series arrives.
