Thousands of Huawei Stores will continue to operate throughout 2023 Chinese Spring Festival
Today, Huawei announced that thousands of retail stores and Huawei service stores will continue to operate throughout during the 2023 Spring Festival (from New Year’s Eve to the sixth day of the first lunar month). It’s said that customer care and other services will be available 7×24.
During the 2023 Spring Festival, Huawei authorized stores and service centers across China will continue to operate to help users solve any issues with Huawei devices at any time. At the same time, customer service personnel from channels such as the telephone hotline, Huawei Service Official Website, Huawei Online Store, Huawei Service App, and e-commerce platforms will also remain online.
Additionally, if a mobile is physically damaged during the Spring Festival, you bring it to the center. If the device can’t be repaired in one day, the Huawei store can also provide a spare phone as a replacement until your phone gets repaired, which I found absolutely amazing.
Currently, Huawei has entered gratitude and feedback season activities. From December 12, 2022, to February 28, 2023, with the theme of “With you every year, every year is promising”, Huawei will bring warm service feedback to consumers for nearly three months.
During the “Spring Festival is not closed” event of Huawei stores, users can also go to the store to enjoy the seven service rights of the Thanksgiving season, namely, mobile phone memory upgrades starting at 389 yuan, one-price battery replacement starting at 99 yuan, Kunlun glass upgrades starting at 589 yuan, and screen damage services with a two-year extended service package for one year, a 12% discount on components for out-of-warranty maintenance.
This season’s thanksgiving offer will also bring many other official service discounts, as well as free disinfection, personalized film stickers, and hot discounts.
Huawei has finalized the design of the P60 series and the flagship could appear at Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2023 at the earliest, which is piece of amazing news.
Input coming from different Weibo tipsters suggests that Huawei has confirmed the design of the Huawei P60 series. It is the first camera module that has a giant ring in the middle followed by a camera on the top and a periscope camera placed on the bottom side.
These tipsters have seen the test model, and the company is likely to keep the below-featured camera system, unlike the one that surfaced recently. The camera bump is rectangular and houses all of the sensors inside, making it a hybrid version of P50 and P40 devices.
MWC 2023:
Another tipster suggested that the Huawei P60 series revealing could occur at MWC 2023, which will be a surprise. However, the tipster insists that it could be the earliest launch attempt that the Chinese tech maker may choose to go with.
MWC Barcelona is an annual event and 2023’s conference will start from February 27, 2023, to March 2, 2023. So, the company could book the last week of this month to open the launch or by early in March.
At MWC 23, Honor will also participate in the launch of its new foldable device. This leads us to a prediction that, Huawei Mate X3 is also ready to enter among consumers and it would make sense, as this new foldable device is ready to raise the curtain.
Past information:
Huawei P60 series could be the most powerful camera smartphone, as it will feature a large sensor to boast better light. Also, it will debut variable aperture in the P series, which is another advantage for this flagship family.
For now, Huawei has not made an official announcement about the launch date. However, there is more information that will appear to amaze us.
ChatGPT is a raging storm on the internet and everyone is talking about this AI-powered instant reply software but Huawei says, it has long mastered such technology.
A person in charge of Huawei’s computing product section said that Huawei began to have a layout in the large model in 2020. In the following year, Huawei launched Pengcheng Pangu, which is a super-large model and the first of its kind in the industry.
This model can generate 100 billion levels of processes and can generate responses or understand Chinese natural language processing as well as speech recognition.
To be mentioned, Pangu NLP large model was the world’s largest Chinese language pre-training model with 100 billion parameters at that time. The sample tuning of the data improves the application performance of the model in the scenario.
Patent:
Recently, two patents have surfaced on China’s intellectual property office, which reveal Huawei’s use of AI in instant reply software. However, we can say that Huawei has already applied a lot of AI software to human conversation technology, which was way ahead of ChatGPT. But Huawei has not revealed any plans to implement such tech in Huawei devices.
ChatGPT:
ChatGPT was launched as a prototype on November 30, 2022, and quickly garnered attention for its detailed responses and articulate answers across many domains of knowledge. Its uneven factual accuracy, however, was identified as a significant drawback. Following the release of ChatGPT, OpenAI’s valuation was estimated at US$29 billion.

After the events of the U.S. ban, Huawei had to reduce its capacity of building new smartphones, which result in low yield and sales, and now, Xiaomi claims that it took over 50 million of Huawei’s users.
During the Xiaomi Investment Day, Lu Weibing, President of Xiaomi Group said that Huawei has lost over 80 million smartphone users, of which, Xiaomi took over 50 million.
This is quite a big statement made by the head of the Chinese phone maker as Huawei was forced to leave the market due to the restrictions on manufacturing.
After not meeting the market requirements the share of Huawei’s smartphone market declined severely in both the Chinese and global markets. While other smartphone makers are the ones that got most of the benefits.
From the rest, Apple took over 20 million users and Honor grabbed 10 million, which accounts for an overall 80 million Huawei users.
According to the data revealed by Canalys, the global smartphone market ranked Samsung first and Apple second, which has increased by 22 percent and 19 percent respectively. While Xiaomi declined to 13 percent.
Aside from Apple and Samsung, other smartphone maker has declined. On this matter, Xiaomi’s president said that the decline in his firm is related to various reasons such as currency depreciation, chips from shortage to surplus, and intensified competition, the global mobile phone market will decline by 12% in 2022, of which the Chinese market will decline by 13%.
Why not?
It was an opportunity for all of the smartphone companies with an open opportunity to grab Huawei’s market share and it fell directly into their lap without doing anything.
