Just one day after the surprising official release of the Huawei Mate 60 Pro, the first disassembly video is here.
It’s an overview of the process and a good look inside the phone to see the components. The first thing to note is that the Mate 60 Pro has an estimated 7,000mm2 vapor chamber, much larger than that of its predecessor and most other rivals.
We also got a look at the chipset, which Huawei didn’t confirm at the time of the announcement. It is in fact a Kirin SoC and most likely the Kirin 9000 in particular.
Finally, the teardown shows the dedicated chip that enables satellite connectivity on the Mate 60 Pro. Having satellite connectivity itself isn’t the notable thing here, it’s the dedicated chip. For example, iPhone 14 devices can send text messages to emergency services via satellite thanks to a clever solution on the phone’s antennas. The Mate 60 Pro has, in theory, a more sophisticated solution.
