Huawei reportedly developing gaming laptops and a gaming console

It seems that the Chinese tech giant, Huawei, also wants a piece of the gaming market. According to the latest reports, Huawei is developing new gaming notebooks and a gaming console to rival Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5.

As per the news shared on Weibo by TomatoPrince (via HuaweiCentral), Huawei should launch the gaming laptops before the alleged gaming console (aka MateStation). This isn't the first time the company is working on gaming laptops since it already released one through its subsidiary back in 2020, the Honor Hunter V700. Since Honor has been sold to Shenzhen Zhixin New Information Technology, the new gaming laptop would be the first to use Huawei's name. Moreover, the company released a console in 2014 named Tron, which was powered by a Tegra 4 processor and used Android 4.2 Jelly Bean OS.

Considering Huawei's massive customer base and intellectual property, developing a new console should be within its reach. Huawei also already has a gaming platform called GameCenter, which is based on Huawei Media Services for Android.

The leaker hasn't revealed a release date for the gaming laptops nor for the MateStation.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
