Performance Boost: Moving from Kirin 8000A (in the base 70X) to Kirin 8000 gives a meaningful uplift in performance.
Long Battery Life: With a large 6,100 mAh battery and moderately fast 40 W charging, the phone is likely optimized for endurance rather than ultra-fast charging.
Satellite Messaging: The Beidou satellite feature is a standout — useful for areas with weak network coverage.
Durability: The “armor” body design suggests it’s built to be more rugged than typical mid-range phones.
Value for Money: The starting price of CNY 1,899 makes this a relatively affordable “premium” variant — especially given the advanced SoC and curved AMOLED display.
