The heat dissipation relies on a “Max” system which uses a VC liquid dissipation system with a surface area of 4811 mm².
The brand new LPDDR5X RAM (capable of consuming -20% of energy, present for the first time on an Android device) and the UFS 3.1 storage are combined in the three configurations of 8 + 128 GB, 8 + 256 GB and 12 + 256 GB, priced at 3499 yuan (519 euros), 3799 yuan (563 euros) and 3999 yuan (593 euros) respectively.
