HUAWEI has returned to the smartphone market with the new Mate 50 series. The smartphone series brings four variants, including the vanilla Mate 50, Mate 50 Pro, Mate 50 RS Porsche design, and Mate 50E. Now, let's find out the highlights of these devices and which one of them would capture your attention the most.
HUAWEI Mate 50
Starting from the Mate 50, it adopts a 6.7-inch OLED straight screen and supports 2700 x 1224 resolution. There are also a 90Hz refresh rate and a 300Hz touch sampling rate. Not only that, but it supports 1440Hz PWM dimming and a 1.07 billion primary colour display as well. Under the hood, this device packs a 4,460mAh battery with 66W wired and 50W wireless charging technologies.
The standard variant comes with three camera sensors on the rear. There is a 13MP ultra-wide-angle camera (f / 2.2, super macro shooting), a 12MP periscope telephoto camera (RYYB, 5x optical zoom, f / 3.4, OIS optical image stabilization, 100x Zoom range: 13mm – 1350mm) and a 50MP ultra-optical variable camera (RYYB, f/1.4-f/4.0, laser focus sensor, 10-channel multispectral sensor).
HUAWEI Mate 50 Pro
After that, the Mate 50 Pro sports a 6.74-inch screen that supports a higher 120Hz refresh rate. Other display technologies are the same, but it gets an extra 3D face payment besides an under-screen fingerprint sensor. The battery is bigger at 4,700mAh, coupled with the same 66W wired charging as well.
The Mate 50 Pro also has a triple-camera setup. It brings a 13MP ultra-wide-angle camera (f / 2.2, super macro shooting), a 64MP periscope telephoto camera (RYYB, 3.5x optical zoom, f / 3.5, OIS optical image stabilization, 200 Double zoom range: 13mm-2700mm) and a 50MP super-optical variable camera (RYYB, f/1.4-f/4.0, OIS optical image stabilization, proximity light sensor, laser focus sensor, 10-channel multispectral sensor).
HUAWEI Mate 50 RS Porsche design & Mate 50E
Besides these two devices, there's also the HUAWEI Mate50 RS Porsche design with a supercar-inspired look. It's the industry's first to feature a super macro telephoto camera, alongside a dual-lens group long-stroke sliding axis technology. HUAWEI has also brought along a more budget variant, and it's the Mate 50E with a Snapdragon 778G 4G chip.
Except for the Mate 50E, all the other three flagships get powered by the 4G variant of Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC. Their impressive camera setups also share the in-house developed image system, XMAGE. With the launch of these devices, HUAWEI has become the first company to introduce the Beidou satellite messages on smartphones, allowing users to text in environments without a network. As promised, they have also brought the emergency mode with HarmonyOS 3.0, which gets activated intelligently under 1% low power and enables the device to stand by for 3 hours plus a 12-hour talk time.
The devices will start selling in China at the price of 3,999 Yuan (~RM2,589) and goes all the way up to 12,999 Yuan (~RM8,415). It's unknown if all the variants will arrive in Malaysia, but we might probably get the news soon.
