In terms of the layout of 5G mobile phones, many manufacturers have taken substantial steps, and some are still planning. Today, we will take stock of the 5G mobile phone products that have appeared or are about to appear, hoping to provide some reference for everyone.

Huawei Mate 20 X 5G

Solution: Kirin 980 + Balong 5000

Huawei Mate 20 X 5G uses a 7.2-inch "water drop screen" that is the same as the standard version of Mate 20 X. In terms of core hardware configuration, it is equipped with the Kirin 980 platform, graphene + liquid cooling system, and storage specifications of 8GB + 256GB.

Although it has been nearly 10 months since the release of the Mate 20 series, the first mobile phone equipped with Kirin 980, even now, this chip with 7nm process, A76 CPU core, Mali G76 GPU and dual-core NPU is still very competitive and is one of the flagship SoCs in the Android camp.

As for the 5G aspect that everyone is more concerned about, the Mate 20 X (5G) uses Huawei's self-developed Balong 5000 baseband. This chip uses a 7nm process, supports 5G's NSA (non-independent networking) and SA (independent networking), and is backward compatible with 2G, 3G, and 4G.

The product will be officially launched on August 16, priced at 6199 yuan (8GB+256GB). Geek Choice has also previously conducted a very detailed review of the Huawei Mate 20 X (5G). Interested friends can follow the Geek Choice WeChat official account (GeekChoice).

The Samsung Galaxy S10 5G version uses a 6.7-inch hole-punch screen with a resolution of 3040x1440 and 505ppi. The screen size is slightly larger than the Galaxy S10+, and the body size is also larger, but its weight control is good, consistent with the Galaxy S10+ ceramic version, which is 198 grams.

In terms of core hardware configuration, the versions sold in the US and South Korean markets are equipped with Samsung's own Exynos 9820 platform, and the Chinese version will use the Snapdragon 855 platform instead, but it is not yet on the market.

The camera capability is a highlight of the Samsung Galaxy S10 5G.

The overall appearance design is consistent with the regular version, and it also uses a sliding cover design. However, in terms of core hardware configuration, the Xiaomi MIX3 5G version has been upgraded from the previous Snapdragon 845 platform to the latest Snapdragon 855 platform, and its performance is obviously better.

OPPO Reno 5G

Although the OPPO Reno 5G version has not yet been officially launched in China, it has already become famous. The 5G network speed test video shot by He Tongxue, a UP host on B Station, not only gained him a large number of fans, but also made more people know about the OPPO Reno 5G version of the phone.

In terms of core hardware configuration, the OPPO Reno 5G version is basically the same as the previous OPPO Reno 10x zoom version. Its front camera also adopts a relatively special side-rotating and lifting design, and is still equipped with the top Snapdragon 855 platform on the market.

The most obvious difference from the OPPO Reno 10x Zoom is that this time it supports 5G networks, and the network connection method is NSA (non-standalone networking). This product has been sold in the European market at a price of 899 euros, and it should be available in the domestic market soon.

In addition, iQOO also announced that it will officially release a 5G mobile phone in August.
