Sales of Apple’s new iPhone 11 in China began on Friday, but were met with a cooler reception from consumers than in previous years. Unlike in previous years, no long lines were seen outside Chinese shops on Friday for the new iPhone, and the product release only made the headlines in a few media outlets.
Huawei unveiled（公布）its Mate 30 smartphone series on Thursday night. Its new devices have won consumers’ hearts at home and abroad. Many compared it with Apple’s new iPhone 11, saying that beats the new iPhone in terms of innovation and quality. One customer surnamed Zhao, an IT specialist who pre-ordered a Mate 30 Pro on Friday, said that he chose Mate 30 without hesitation. Zhao said, “It’s obvious that Huawei’s new phone with its advanced 5G mode would lead the future global telecommunications market, and its new innovative features in gesture and side control attracted my attention, too.”

Many chose Huawei not out of patriotism but for its technology.

HUAWEI Mate 30系列配备全球首款旗舰5G SoC——麒麟990 5G版，采用7nm+ EUV极紫外光刻工艺，将处理器和5G基带合二为一，是智能手机迄今最为重大的飞跃。麒麟990 5G将5G基带与应用处理器合二为一，其支持2G/3G/4G/5G全网通，支持5G NSA(非独立组网)和SA(独立组网)双模，在未来5G网络向SA架构升级时能够无缝过渡，而无需更换手机。
HUAWEI Mate 30系列支持5G+4G双卡双待，一张卡5G上网的同时，另一卡可接听VoLTE高清语音通话，实现业界最佳5G双卡体验。同时，其还支持FDD和TDD，可覆盖未来可用的广泛5G频段。Mate 30系列5G版本拥有多达21根天线，实现业界最出色的天线性能，保证稳定的信号联接。
HUAWEI Mate 30 Pro其电影摄像头支持超高清夜摄，可实现手机摄像迄今最出色的视频感光度ISO 51200，可与专业电影摄像机媲美。HUAWEI Mate 30 Pro可拍摄最高7680fps超高速摄影，每秒定格7680个瞬间。这将开启人眼前所未见的超高速世界，如泡沫破裂、颜料相互碰撞，这类以往只有专业超高速摄像机才拍到的精彩瞬间。另外HUAWEI Mate 30 Pro全新加入3D深感摄像头，可在拍摄时实现画面纵深的测距。借助于3D深感摄像头，HUAWEI Mate 30 Pro可分离主体与背景，实现高精度的发丝级抠图、渐进式虚化，呈现动人的立体视觉效果。
在HUAWEI Mate 30 Pro上，华为取消了实体音量按键。用户可在环幕屏边缘自定义音量调节滑块的位置，无论手掌大小，均可以找到最舒服的位置调节音量；无论左手右手，哪一只手都顺手。在游戏场景下，环幕屏边缘还可化身游戏按键，映射开镜、射击等功能，适配和平精英、荒野行动、穿越火线的四指操控。
EMUI 10构建全联接智慧系统，可无缝连接智能电视、智能汽车和其他终端，还可将手机操作界面镜像到MateBook屏幕，在MateBook上运行手机应用。EMUI10通过分布式技术带来“多屏协同”功能，彻底从系统底层打通了Windows和Android的藩篱，实现了MateBook和手机的协同操作、数据流转和多屏操控。手机与MateBook之间建立可靠授权连接，数据端到端加密。
手机操作界面可实时同步显示在MateBook屏幕，可在MateBook上畅玩手机应用，编辑手机文档内容。MateBook的鼠标、键盘、扬声器均成为手机的一个外设，用户无需反复在两个设备屏幕之间切换，更聚焦更高效。同时，用户可在MateBook和手机间跨系统拖拽图片、文档、视频等，快速实现资源共享。
除了MateBook之外，通过全新碰一碰功能，手机音乐可在音箱续播、手机视频在大屏续播、手机车钥匙可以开车门、手机可与跑步机联动。EMUI10首次将分布式技术应用到全场景终端系统，让消费者能够感受到多设备智能协同带来的最佳体验，如同在使用一个超强的虚拟设备。
HUAWEI Mate 30系列打通手机、车机硬件资源，可实现手机与汽车无感全联接。在车外，你可以用手机控车，实时显示车辆状态；进入车内，手机可以接管车内的人机交互功能，进行智能控制驾驶、行为异常警告。华为已与沃尔沃等汽车厂商达成深度合作，将持续拓展生态和车型。
