In the novel "Three Body"， Trisolarans to stop the technological development of Earth，Microscopic particles of sophons are fired at Earth，Completely locked the earth's basic science development。And in reality，Huawei's situation is somewhat similar to this scene。Originally one of the very few domestic manufacturers that mastered SoC design capabilities，Huawei has the best chance to make Apple-style hardware and software integration products。But under the influence of sanctions，The goal that is so close at hand seems out of reach。Yu Chengdong, CEO of Huawei Terminal BG, also said at the event，"As the world's leading 5G manufacturer，Huawei has become the only company that sells pure 4G mobile phones。”
Although the setback is so great，But Huawei is not ready to give up。two years under sanctions，Huawei still updated a variety of high-end and low-end products。But the Mate series that everyone cares about most has never moved，until now。
96th，Huawei held a new product launch conference，Official launch of the new Mate 50 series。After two years of silence，Today's HUAWEI Mate 50 Can the series help Huawei regain its foothold in the high-end market?，Here are some of the feelings I got after a week of experience。
Exterior：Still symmetrical but changed
As a rare series with its own design language among the flagship products of the mainland，The Mate series has always insisted on a symmetrical design， HUAWEI Mate 50 Pro is no exception。back Huawei Mate 50 Pro It still continues the design of the circular rear camera module，But it's different from hiding the lens on the Mate 40 series，Mate 50 The Pro's lens protrudes directly above the module，It clearly shows its powerful imaging capabilities to the outside world。
On the outside of the rear camera module，Huawei has also adopted the Paris stud design，Further enhances the sophistication of the phone。As a common design element in high-end timepieces，The addition of Paris nails makes HUAWEI Mate 50 Pro also has a taste of luxury，It is a masterpiece in the design of the whole machine。
In terms of color，Huawei this time for Mate 50 Pro offers Frost Silver、Obsidian Black、Three glass colors of streamer purple and Kunlun dawn、Kunlun Xiaguang two plain leather colors。The Frost Silver color scheme for this review has a delicate matte texture on the back cover，Feels great。
sight to the front， HUAWEI Mate 50 The Pro does not use Huawei's common pill-digging design this time.，but a renaissance，Re-used small bangs，As for bangs or pills, which one looks better，It's a matter of opinion。
Of course, bangs are not white.，remove proactive，Huawei also put in a 3D depth-sensing camera，3D facial recognition possible，Also Mate 50 Pro also supports off-screen fingerprint recognition，Provides users with a variety of options。
screen aspect， HUAWEI Mate 50 The Pro uses a 6.74-inch OLED micro-curved screen，Compared with the large arc edge of the Mate 40 series, the look and feel on the edge、Anti-mistouch and other aspects have better performance，Simultaneous 120Hz high refresh rate、Parameters such as HDR Vivid certification are also available。It is worth mentioning that it supports 1440Hz high frequency PWM dimming，Makes eyes more comfortable in low-light environments。
image：XMAGE debuts with great performance
Imaging capability has always been one of the main selling points of Huawei mobile phones，The cooperation with Leica in the early years is definitely one of the classic cases in the mobile phone circle。在 HUAWEI Mate 50 Pro，Huawei's own XMAGE takes the place of Leica。And in terms of hardware，in supersensitivity、Beyond the hyperspectral，Huawei has brought a new term this time - super light change，In fact, variable aperture technology；
But unlike other products before, it can only switch between two stops of aperture， Huawei Mate 50 Pro supports ten-speed switching between F1.4 and F4，Help users to effectively control the depth of field of the film。Let's take a look at the real shot proofs of this 50-megapixel super-optical camera + 13-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera + 64-megapixel periscope telephoto camera。
in the actual shooting experience，We find Huawei Mate 50 The image quality of the main camera of the Pro is amazing，Clear in the basic picture、sharp detail、Beyond color accuracy，Screen resolution is also very good，The blessing of HDR function also makes it achieve better picture restoration。
HUAWEI Mate 50 Pro's ultra-wide-angle lens also has good imaging results，Excellent edge distortion control，Enough to meet the daily shooting needs of most users。
Satisfied is the HUAWEI Mate 50 Pro's telephoto lens，The lens has excellent imaging results both at 3.5x optical zoom factor and 10x hybrid zoom factor realized by computational photography technology。Satisfactory image quality even when shooting distant objects。
With the help of computational photography capabilities， HUAWEI Mate 50 Pro's performance in night scenes and low-light environments is also very good。Through the proofs we can see HUAWEIMate 50 Pro delivers sharp and detailed imaging even in low light，And there is no glare problem visible to the naked eye。
For smartphones， HUAWEI Mate 50 The imaging capabilities of the Pro can be called a new benchmark for Android flagship phones in 2022，Very few flagship phones have the same level of imaging capabilities。
experience：HarmonyOS 3 shows its true colors
After talking about appearance and image，Let's take a look at HUAWEI Mate 50 Pro experience。The first thing to talk about is the satellite communication technology that "pierces the sky" this time.。The technical principle is to use the satellite communication capability in the mobile phone to send information to the satellite，It is then forwarded by the satellite to the ground base station，finally sent to the receiver，So as to realize the communication ability in the state of no mobile phone signal。
in actual use，Just click Beidou satellite news in Changlian App，Select the contact and content to send the message，You can send a help text message with coordinate information to the contact。during the test，The time from sending to receiving is basically kept within 5 minutes。However, it should be noted that，This feature currently only sends text messages，Not available indoors，Its main role is to provide emergency assistance.。
besides，As the first Huawei phone with HarmonyOS 3 pre-installed，Mate 50 Pro also has a lot of useful features，Below I will pick a few to introduce。
In daily life, we often encounter the need to edit pictures across applications、letter、In the case of various contents such as documents，In general, we can only process one by one，Obviously not efficient。And the super transfer station in HarmonyOS 3 supports users to transfer pictures、Documentation、Drag and drop any files such as text to the transfer station，Can be dragged out once after editing，Bulk share。Break through the barriers between third-party software，Make information efficient、convenient circulation。
As the first scene of mobile phone interaction，A good desktop can greatly improve the efficiency of use。HarmonyOS has also been working on the functionality of the desktop since its launch，Service card is one of the representatives。in HarmonyOS 3 superior，Cards of the same size can be stacked together，Offers more functionality while saving desktop space。When the user opens the stack，All cards are presented in a waterfall，Users can swipe up and down to view cards，You can also drag to adjust the card order，Swipe left to delete card，You can also drag and drop cards to the desktop。
At the same time, cards of different sizes can also be spliced together in a folder-like manner.，Card combination can also be adjusted in size，while making it easier for users to use，Desktop layout is also more organized。in addition，The system also presets a variety of combination templates，User-friendly layout design，One-click selection，easy to use。
For users who want to quickly organize their desktop， HarmonyOS 3 Provides options for sorting by color and sorting by function，Keep your desktop organized with just one click。in a single screen， HarmonyOS 3 A variety of desktop smart layout templates are also provided for users to choose from，Help users find a layout that works for them。
As an essential tool for modern life，Smartphones carry too much important personal information。Therefore, its safety situation has also attracted users' attention.。The security center built into HarmonyOS 3 allows users to view the current security situation of the device at any time，such as virus killing、Harassment Intercept、Use of payment protection center, etc.，Proactively help users identify problems，And provide corresponding equipment protection suggestions for various situations。Users can not only view the security status of the native device，You can also view other devices under the same HUAWEI ID，Multi-device security status at a glance。
And if you are worried that the user's privacy will be stolen by harmful apps，you can use the Privacy Center，It will count and record in real time the behavior of all mobile applications accessing sensitive information，and presented in the form of a graph，And proactively give privacy protection suggestions for risky applications。When it is detected that the application of unreasonable use of permissions，Privacy Center will advise users to turn off their permissions。
I believe many of my friends have heard cases of information leakage caused by sharing pictures。To solve this problem， HUAWEI Mate 50 Pro provides picture privacy protection in albums，When sharing a picture, you can choose to erase the Exif information of the picture with one click。
battery life：The performance is mediocre，Emergency mode can solve urgent problems
HUAWEI Mate 50 The Pro is equipped with a combination of 4700mAh battery, 66W wired fast charging and 50W wireless fast charging，In the current environment where super 100W fast charging is prevalent, it can only be regarded as quite satisfactory.。According to the actual measurement，Charging starts from 1% battery， Huawei Mate 50 The Pro is 49% charged after 15 minutes，3086% charge in minutes，It takes 38 minutes to fully charge。
battery life，We also tested with the ZOL 5-hour battery life model，After 5 hours of actual measurement, Huawei Mate 50 Pro has 42% battery remaining，in acceptable range。But if you are a heavy mobile phone user，Might still need to be charged twice a day.。
Although the battery life performance can only be regarded as quite satisfactory，But Huawei Mate 50 Pro also has its own unique skills。The emergency mode it is equipped with will automatically turn on when the battery is only 1% left.，Utilize the residual power of the fuselage battery by using the accumulating pump technology，Support emergency operations such as talking for 12 minutes or flashing the code 10 times or scanning the code 4 times，Can solve the urgent needs of users。
The advent of the Mate 50 series，It is a clear signal from Huawei to the outside world.，The former high-end king is back。Still exquisite design、Video performance of the first echelon，Coupled with black technologies such as satellite communication and emergency mode, as well as the smart experience brought by HarmonyOS，Although there are still shortcomings，But still has a good competitiveness in the high-end market，Coupled with Huawei's brand appeal，I believe that many friends will choose to pay for it。
And for Huawei， HUAWEI Mate 50 Emergence of the series，On the one hand, it can strengthen the high-end image of the Huawei brand in the hearts of users，On the other hand, it can also ease the pressure on offline channels due to shortages。Believe in the context of the return of the Mate series，Huawei's mobile phone business will also slowly get back on track，In the future, we will launch more good products with "black technology" for everyone。
