Huawei Pura 80 Pro+ satellite communication only five-star Xiaoyi AI intelligent body leads the industry

China Telecom held the “Yiju Insight” 2025 China Telecom Terminal Evaluation Cooperation Forum in Beijing. As a major event in the terminal industry, the forum focused on cutting-edge technologies and industry hotspots such as artificial intelligence, 5G-A, eSIM, satellite communications, and Wi-Fi 7. It not only clarified China Telecom’s full range of terminal customization requirements, but also released significant evaluation results, including the Terminal Test Quality Report, Terminal Insight Report, Yiju AITMark, and AI Terminal Testing System. Yiju AITMark is the industry’s first professional AI terminal evaluation system, highly recognized for its authority and professionalism.

The Huawei Pura 80 Pro+ secured multiple firsts in the core rankings released at the forum. In the AITMark AI Assistant Intelligent Body test, Xiaoyi Intelligent Body ranked first with a score of 354.8. In the AITMark AI Mobile Scene Intelligence Comprehensive Score, the Huawei Pura 80 Pro+ took the top spot, placing first in the four core scenarios of AI Imaging, AI Social, AI Learning, and AI Office, and second in the AI Life Scenario.

In the Terminal Insight Report – Volkswagen Smart Direct Satellite Phone Evaluation, Huawei Pura 80 Pro+ stood out as the only model to receive a five-star overall rating. Its five key indicators of network performance, call quality, call and SMS latency, positioning performance, and power consumption and battery life all received five stars, fully demonstrating Huawei’s top strength in the field of terminal technology.

Huawei Pura 80 Pro+ Satellite Communications: Demonstrates Prowess in Extreme Emergency Response, Leading the Industry with Technological Breakthroughs

Heavy rain rescue operations: Satellite communications become a “lifeline”

In July 2025, Beijing was hit by extreme rainstorms, temporarily disrupting terrestrial networks and leaving countless residents without access to the outside world. The satellite communication function of Huawei phones proved a lifesaver for those in the disaster area. On July 28, a resident named “Donkey” shared his self-rescue experience on Weibo: in the absence of terrestrial networks, he successfully used the satellite communication function of his Huawei phone to send a distress signal and location information, buying critical time for rescue. On July 31, “Donkey” posted another post praising the Huawei Pura 70 series’ satellite communication function, revealing that it had helped connect people to the outside world multiple times during disasters. Huawei Device BG CTO Bruce Xiaolong also expressed his gratitude in the comments section.

According to Bruce Lee’s subsequent Weibo post and media reports, the number of Huawei mobile satellite communication users increased more than tenfold during Beijing’s heavy rainstorms compared to normal days. This data further demonstrates the reliability of Huawei’s satellite communication technology. Even without a terrestrial network, it still allows users to send distress signals and transmit location information, becoming a critical emergency response measure and a life-saving self-rescue tool in disasters.

Dual satellite communication technology: Beidou + Tiantong build a solid security barrier

Huawei continues to lead the field of terminal satellite communications and drive technological breakthroughs. The Huawei Pura 80 Pro+ and Pura 80 Ultra are equipped with Beidou and Tiantong dual-satellite communication technologies. Even without a terrestrial network, they can still communicate with the outside world through Tiantong satellite communication and Beidou satellite messaging.

Two-way Beidou satellite messaging breaks the limitations of traditional one-way messaging, allowing users to freely edit text and send satellite image messages via Changlian, giving recipients a direct understanding of the on-site environment. “A picture is worth a thousand words” improves rescue efficiency. The newly added “Smart Satellite Selection” feature uses a precise algorithm to automatically connect to the optimal satellite, eliminating the tedious manual “pointing” process and enabling faster connections, enabling the transmission of critical information at critical moments.

For Tiantong satellite communications, the Huawei Pura 80 Pro+ and Huawei Pura 80 Ultra feature an innovative “Satellite Paging” feature. When a satellite call is made, if the contact calls a Huawei phone connected to the Tiantong satellite, the user will receive a satellite notification without having to manually re-align the satellite, ensuring a smooth and seamless call. This feature addresses the pain point of traditional satellite communications, requiring re-alignment for every call, allowing users to stay connected and more secure during outdoor adventures, remote operations, and other scenarios.

Technology implementation capabilities: promoting satellite communications towards the popularization

From the first mobile phone to connect directly to satellites to today’s dual-satellite technology, Huawei has consistently prioritized user needs in its technological iterations. Compared to similar products, Huawei’s satellite communications offer more comprehensive functionality (covering two-way messaging, image sending, and satellite calls) and greater convenience (smart satellite selection and satellite paging lower the barrier to entry). Its practical performance in Beijing’s torrential rain has transformed it from “laboratory gadgetry” into a reliable “safety guarantee,” making it a leader in promoting the popularization of satellite communications.

Xiaoyi Intelligent Body: Leading in multi-scenario AI capabilities, reshaping the smart mobile experience

In this China Telecom Wingmote AITMark evaluation, Xiaoyi Intelligent Body ranked first in the AI Assistant Intelligent Body ranking, and Huawei Pura 80 Pro+ topped the AI mobile phone scene intelligence comprehensive score. Among them, AI imaging, AI social, AI learning, and AI office scenarios all ranked first, and AI life scenario ranked second, demonstrating Huawei’s deep accumulation in the field of AI technology.

In AI social scenarios, the “Dancing Master” character, Hanhan, based on the interactive upgrade of HarmonyOS 5.1, has been integrated into the lock screen, charging, and wallpaper interfaces. Users can customize its appearance and support fun interactions such as blowing and clicking. It can also sense the user’s sleep and rest status and convey emotional value, making AI more humane. In terms of AI imaging, three major features, including AI-assisted composition (learning from over 500,000 professional works and intelligently selecting the focal length), ultra-clear panorama (cross-field fusion to suppress distortion), and AI reflection removal (one-click reflection removal of large AIGC models), break down the barriers of professional photography and enable ordinary users to easily capture high-quality photos.

AI learning and office applications are equally convenient: “Xiaoyi Sees the World” recognizes objects and text and provides explanations, while “Xiaoyi Translate” supports real-time translation in multiple languages (including offline mode). The “Touch and Share” feature allows instant transfers between your phone and other HarmonyOS devices, including photo galleries and third-party apps (such as Bilibili and Taobao), significantly improving content transfer efficiency. In AI-powered everyday scenarios, “AI AirTransfer” transfers files between devices by capturing gestures. AI privacy protection (recognizing the risk of bystanders watching), AI fraud prevention (detecting fraudulent tactics and AI face-swapping), and AI noise reduction for calls (filtering out distractions and preventing audio leakage) balance convenience and privacy.

Summary: Technology as the core, value as the soul, leading the new direction of the industry

Huawei’s Pura 80 series’ dominance of the charts stems from its dual breakthroughs in satellite communications and AI: satellite communications not only achieve technological leadership, but also demonstrate the social value of “emergency support” in extreme disasters; Xiaoyi Intelligent Body, through multi-scenario optimization, upgrades AI from a “tool” to a “warm companion.”

In the future, as Huawei continues to deepen its development of terminal technology, the Huawei Pura 80 series will further enhance its product reputation, create greater value for users, and lead the smartphone industry towards a “smarter, more reliable, and warmer” direction.
