It is the first smartphone to obtain SGS’s five-star glass drop resistance certification.
With the recent launch of the HUAWEI Mate50 Pro in South Africa, critics and technology enthusiasts around the world are raving about the smartphone’s futuristic features, such as the Iconic Symmetrical Space Ring design and the XMAGE Ultra Aperture camera. Furthermore, the HUAWEI Mate50 Pro also features the HUAWEI Kunlun Glass display, one of the most exciting features of the phone.
Surveys reveal that half of the industry’s after-sales maintenance cases are related to cracked or broken screens. A simple crack in the glass is usually enough to justify a repair or to replace the entire screen, the center frame and even the battery. HUAWEI engineers created the HUAWEI Kunlun Glass to solve this problem.
Engineering marvels of the HUAWEI Kunlun Glass
After years of uninhibited exploration and bold risks, HUAWEI engineers took on a new challenge to create invincible glass like no other. Now, with the launch of the HUAWEI Mate50 Pro, the HUAWEI Kunlun Glass is ready to be enjoyed by users around the world.
When developing HUAWEI Kunlun Glass, HUAWEI engineers were inspired by the robust characteristics of reinforced concrete structures. Later research revealed that the load-bearing walls of traditional buildings could maintain a stable structure even if the surface was damaged after adding a layer of reinforcement.
To apply the same technique to smartphone screens, they discovered a way to introduce a large number of nanocrystals into the glass to form a dense support structure to improve strength. Therefore, the coating of HUAWEI Kunlun Glass consists of 10 quadrillion nanocrystals, which is made possible by compound ion strengthening, 24-hour nanocrystal growth at high temperatures, a 108-step microcrystalline matrix material, and processing techniques. of panels, and 1600℃ platinum smelting technology, which increases the durability of the glass.
Thanks to HUAWEI Kunlun Glass, the HUAWEI Mate50 Pro’s drop resistance has now increased 10 times. As a result, the HUAWEI Mate50 Pro became the first smartphone to obtain the five-star glass drop resistance certification from SGS of Switzerland.
Putting the HUAWEI Kunlun Glass to the test
Several local Friends of the Brand have tried to push the HUAWEI Kunlun Glass to the limit. Some have been seen on social media using the HUAWEI Mate50 Pro to smash nuts, while others have repeatedly thrown the phone on the concrete floor, and yet the phone has come out unscathed time and time again. Unsurprisingly, videos of the failed destruction attempts have garnered thousands of views: Nadia Jaftha / Cindy Mahlangu / Natasha Thahane
The tenacious spirit of innovation
The path taken towards the development of HUAWEI Kunlun Glass, like the path to the top of a mountain, was neither simple nor easy. The HUAWEI team faced repeated setbacks during the research and development process, including challenges related to strengthening the type, quantity, and size of nanocrystals. It was only through their resilience and resourcefulness that they were able to pull through.
Finally, the team successfully mastered the formula to control the type, quantity, and size distribution of crystals inside the HUAWEI Kunlun Glass, as well as solving ceramic material strength and optical matching issues.
A phone to enhance your lifestyle
In addition to the HUAWEI Kunlun Glass, the HUAWEI Mate50 Pro comes with a host of other features that represent a huge step forward in smartphone aesthetics and technology. This includes the symmetrical space ring design, the intricate and striking Clous de Paris stepped pattern design, and the versatile XMAGE Ultra Aperture camera.
XMAGE Camera brings you photographic qualities that are the epitome of HUAWEI’s technical expertise in mobile photography, with incredibly pleasing color reproduction and lighting effects. At the same time, the unique low-battery emergency mode allows more power to be drawn from the battery, safely and without damage, when the battery reaches 1% Na charge, while the SuperStorage function helps you store much more personal data on your smartphone All in all, this fantastic phone really is designed to enhance your lifestyle in so many ways!
The HUAWEI Mate50 Pro is priced at R24,999 for 256GB and R26,999 for 512GB, and can be purchased from the HUAWEI Online Store or selected retail stores.
