Huawei is preparing to launch the highly anticipated “Mate 80” series of phones in the coming weeks, amid great interest from technology enthusiasts, after leaks indicated an unprecedented innovation in the selfie camera, which may change the concept of front photography in smartphones.

Dual Front Camera: Information indicates that the “Mate 80 Pro” model, and possibly “Pro+” and “RS Ultimate Design,” will come with a dual front camera, a new step in the “Mate” category, after this feature was limited to the mid-range “Nova” series. Analysts believe that this step targets content creators and selfie enthusiasts, as the front camera has become a fundamental element in the competition between luxury phones. It is likely that Huawei will rely on a high-resolution main lens and an additional lens for zoom, in addition to improving the 3D Face Recognition technology for increased security and accuracy.

New Design and Powerful Performance: Leaked images revealed a sleek circular design for the rear camera unit, which includes three lenses (main, wide, and periscopic for optical zoom), as well as dual flashes inside a metal ring. The phone will initially be launched in light yellow and black, with the possibility of adding other color options later.

Faster Charging and Advanced Processor: The “Mate 80” series is expected to be equipped with 100W super-fast charging, along with a new “Kirin” processor developed by Huawei, and possibly a dedicated built-in cooling system for gaming enthusiasts. The best version, “Mate 80 RS Ultimate Design,” will feature a titanium frame and a dual-layer OLED screen, combining luxury and advanced technology.

Intense Competition in China: The launch of the new series will put Huawei in direct competition with “Xiaomi 17” and “OnePlus 15” in the high-end phone market in China, where camera and artificial intelligence have become decisive factors among major companies.

Observers believe that adopting a dual front camera will give Huawei a strong marketing advantage and return it to the forefront of competition in the field of smart photography innovation, after years of technical and commercial challenges.
