Not long ago, Huawei launched a quirky yet intriguing product — the MatePad Mini, positioned as “a small tablet, a big phone.” Its concept and design drew plenty of curiosity, and in our office, colleagues even jokingly fought for “custody rights” of the device.
Today, Huawei quietly rolled out a new system update for the MatePad Mini. The changelog already includes numerous optimizations and fresh features, but the real bombshell was hidden.
💥 After the update, the processor model — previously kept under wraps — was finally exposed: Kirin 9010.
This marks the very first appearance of the Kirin 9010 in a Huawei device. Naturally, this raises expectations for the upcoming Kirin 9030, promising leaps in performance, connectivity, and AI.
Alongside the update, Huawei officially released the MatePad Mini Reading Edition at competitive prices:
- 12GB+256GB: ¥3299
- 12GB+256GB with anti-glare display: ¥3799
Note: this edition won’t be available online. Interested buyers will need to visit Huawei’s offline stores or authorized outlets.
Rumor has it the Reading Edition carries the Kirin 9010B, which is more than enough for everyday use — from sketching and streaming to reading comics.
✨ Bottom line: this isn’t just a routine update, it’s Huawei signaling a bold step forward with its new-generation chip.
Escalation of the China-U.S. Trade War: The Clash of Rare Earths and Chips — The Contest Behind the Non-Tariff Barrier Battle
This article analyzes Liu Heping’s perspective on the new developments in the China-U.S. trade war. It points out that after the tariff war has largely subsided, the Trump administration has turned to non-tariff barriers—tightening visa scrutiny for Chinese students, suspending exports of high-tech products, and restricting high-end chips. In response, China is leveraging rare earth export controls, exposing America’s “Achilles’ heel” of dependency on Chinese rare earths. The conflict has shifted from tariffs to a battle over technology and resources centered on rare earths and chips. Liu emphasizes that China’s rare earth strategy is more about defensive maneuvering to push the U.S. to ease chip controls, rather than a total export ban. If the standoff persists until 2030, both sides risk losing markets and facing industrial decoupling, with far-reaching global economic impacts.
