Recently, many people on the Internet have expressed their opinions on folding screen mobile phones, which is because of rumors that well-known mobile phone brands have recently withdrawn from this field and no longer continue to launch products. So everyone discussed whether this kind of product is a gimmick, especially a small folding screen mobile phone with a vertical flip cover. However, at this time, Huawei officially announced its new product, Huawei Pocket2, which will be released on February 22.
Judging from the name, Huawei Pocket2 should be a small folding screen mobile phone with a vertical flip cover. The specific appearance and configuration of this mobile phone are not yet known, but at present, the appearance of the small folding screen mobile phone is still relatively fixed, and there is no greater design space. Only the arrangement of the secondary screen and camera can be operated a little, which is also the key to improving the recognition of many similar products.
For Huawei, we can see that the previous Huawei P50 Pocket and Huawei Pocket S still have certain commonalities, and the camera part of the mobile phone is a bit similar to the previous generation P series "Vientiane Double Ring" concept, one of which accommodates the camera, and the other is a secondary screen. And on the latest Huawei pocket2 poster, it happens to show the double ring.
Therefore, on the whole, Huawei Pocket S has a high probability of continuing the shape of the previous generation in product design, and making it a family style of Huawei's small folding mobile phone. However, when other small folding screens are rolling up the outer screen, is this design really appropriate? In fact, judging from the data, it is quite appropriate, because Huawei can still get 29 in this field with the first two generations of products6% market share, and very close to the number one.
Huawei's results prove that the small folding screen does not need to highlight a certain functional design, after all, it is small enough and does not rely so much on the external screen or secondary screen, which is completely different from the traditional horizontal folding phone. On the contrary, the vertical folding screen emphasizes a sense of design and a sense of luxury, which is precisely Huawei's advantage. Whether it's the P50 Pocket or the Pocket S, you can feel premium at a glance.
Compared with other brands, Huawei should know how to design good products, which is Huawei's biggest advantage. At the same time, Huawei Pocket 2 must have two other advantages, that is, the chip and the structural design of the mobile phone, which is needless to say.
Today's Huawei has the Kirin 9000s, the ultra-reliable Xuanwu architecture on the straight phone, and the waterdrop hinge on the Huawei Mate X5, so is it possible that this phone will also have a new design like the Xuanwu hinge?
At this stage, the biggest pain points of small folding screen mobile phone products are nothing more than a few, one is how to solve the screen crease, the second is how to achieve dust and waterproof, and the third is how to optimize the structural life. In these aspects, Huawei has already demonstrated its strength through the Mate X5, and I believe that it is not difficult to design a similar solution on a small folding screen mobile phone.
As for how good the upcoming Huawei Pocket 2 product is, we can only wait for the launch event. So on the afternoon of February 22, this product is still very worth looking forward to.
