The Huawei Mate 30 series will be announced in Munich on September 19. Ahead of the release, images of the Mate 30’s retail box has surfaced on the web. The images are reported to have been shared by a reviewer who got a prototype.
The Mate 30 will come in an uninteresting black box with the name of the phone inscribed in gold. The words “SuperSensing Camera” is written right next to Leica’s logo.
The sticker on the side reveals the Mate 30’s model number is TAS-AL00 and this version has 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. This was the highest configuration available for last year’s Mate 20 but we can’t say if that will be the case again this year. Nevertheless, there should be support for storage expansion via Huawei’s proprietary Nano Memory card slot.
The box also shows the phone supports TD-LTE. Chances of a 5G version of the Mate 30 are slim, so don’t expect one.
The Mate 30 will have a smaller notch than the Mate 30 Pro, just like its predecessor last year. However, Huawei has switched from a waterdrop notch to a rectangular one if this photo of a leaked tempered glass is genuine. Inside the notch will sit two cameras.
The phone will be powered by Huawei’s new Kirin 990 processor. There are reports it will have support for fast charging this year and not via an add-on accessory like the Mate 20.
