The Huawei Mate50 series, originally released at the end of last year, was forced to postpone due to issues such as chips. The latest news indicates that the Mate50 series is expected to be released between the end of August and the middle of September this year. Since Huawei has been sanctioned by the U.S. Department of Commerce in the Entity List since 2019, it has been unable to launch 5G-supporting mobile phones. The recently launched new phones are all 4G models. It is reported that the Mate50 series that will debut later will not be spared.
Body design minor changes
The director of China Technology Blog @ Factory, Guan, broke the news on Weibo yesterday, saying that the Huawei Mate50 series are all 4G models, and the previously rumored Kirin 9000S 5G processor version has been canceled. Although the appearance of the fuselage has changed, it still maintains the circular camera module design on the back of the machine. The tech blog also specifically mentioned that the Mate50 series should not have a Pro+ version.
Provide a 5G case to make up for the shortcomings
In order to break through the limitation of not being able to use 5G, @Factory Director Shi Guan said that Huawei will provide 5G communication casings to Mate50 series customers. Huawei has previously launched a 5G communication case accessory for the P50 Pro priced at RMB 799. After installing it on the mobile phone, an instruction will automatically pop up, and you can use the 5G connection following opening China Unicom eSIM.
