Just as we got a Mate 30 RS Porsche Design last year, Huawei will also be launching a Mate 40 RS Porsche Design RS this year. If you are wondering what the phone looks like, then you are in luck as a photo of the back panel has been posted on the internet.

The photo was posted on Twitter by Teme (@RODENT950) and it shows the phone’s octagonal camera housing which is filled with holes. The panel has a sort of blue-ish paint job with a mix of gloss and matte finish.

The middle of the case is a thick band of several lines that runs from the top of the camera housing down to the bottom. Unlike the Mate 30 RS Porsche Design, the Mate 40 RS Porsche Design doesn’t have the luxury band’s logo but Porsche Design is written in full on the back. The design is unusual but personally, I prefer this to that of last year’s model.

In a reply to the original tweet, the leaker revealed the Mate 40 RS Porsche Design will sell for €2000. This is slightly less than the €2095 launch price of last year’s model. He also revealed that the back is made of ceramic and there will be a white variant too.

Just like the Mate 40 Pro, the Porsche Design edition should also be powered by the Kirin 9000 processor, come with an OLED display, and have support for fast wired and fast wireless charging.
