HUAWEI recently unveiled its HUAWEI Mate50 Pro — a premium flagship smartphone showcasing a stunning new design and brimming with a host of futuristic technologies. The Ultra Aperture XMAGE camera, with its 10-step adjustable aperture, is undoubtedly a flagship element of the HUAWEI Mate50 Pro – but this exciting new phone also comes with an innovative SuperStorage Compression feature, which will help you store more personal data on your phone. Here’s everything you need to know about this handy new offering.
SuperStorage – Intelligent storage saver
Within six months to one year of smartphone usage, users tend to get storage capacity anxiety as hundreds of photos and videos, as well as cache accumulation with app usage, rapidly use up the storage space.
File management assistants and third-party solutions can help with storage clean-ups. However, parting with their data – such as apps or chat records – is generally difficult for most users. To help you free up more storage space in a stress-free manner and reduce the effort needed for clean-ups, HUAWEI’s research and development engineers pioneered the SuperStorage technology through in-depth research.
Instead of following the common industry method of scanning files and letting users decide whether to delete them, SuperStorage technology can free you up from the constraints of the application level and, instead, optimise the compression of duplicate files and infrequent applications, based on the file system level.
For example, if you send the same picture to various group chats on social platforms, multiple duplicate files will be generated in the system. SuperStorage technology can identify these files, compress them and preserve the access path. It ensures that while multiple duplicate files can be accessed normally, only one storage space is occupied. Even if multiple files are scattered in different applications, deduplication can be achieved and space can be freed for use.
Additionally, the system can also identify applications that are not frequently used and with user confirmation, the compression is completed. When you need to use the application again, it can be decompressed in real time to achieve lightweight management of the application. SuperStorage is seamless, as file deduplication and application compression do not affect your normal use of your mobile phone.
Maximising your personal storage space
The use of powerful new technologies to achieve a seamless compression experience of smartphone storage is another example of how HUAWEI makes life easier and more convenient. After testing with the 256GB HUAWEI Mate50 Pro, it was found that the SuperStorage technology can help users to save up to 20 GB of free storage space, which they can use to store even more photos and videos. SuperStorage technology truly improves the storage capacity benefits of your smartphone – without affecting the normal use of your phone – and in this way, helps to eliminate the issues caused by lack of storage space.
The HUAWEI Mate50 Pro is now available in Orange, Silver and Black and can be purchased from selected retail stores or the HUAWEI online store. The smartphone is priced at R24 999 for the 256 GB and R26 999 for the 512 GB.
