Huawei, the Chinese company which has been struggling ever since the United States imposed several sanctions, managed to launch a flagship smartphone earlier this year, in the form of the Huawei P50 series.

Now, the company is gearing up to launch a new Mate-series flagship smartphone lineup in its home country. While the phones were expected to get launched by now, the official announcement has been pushed to early next year.

Amid rumors about the Huawei Mate 50 series getting canceled, a tipster from China has claimed that the upcoming lineup hasn’t been canceled and has also revealed some key details about the device.

It is being claimed that the Huawei Mate 50 series phones will get launched in the first half of next year. On the other hand, some reports hint the launch timeline to be somewhere towards the end of Q2 2022.

Further, there are reports hinting that the devices will come powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 898 4G chipset. Previous reports have suggested that the phone will come equipped with an LTPO display which is the same technology that we are seeing in the newly launched Apple iPhone 13 Pro series. This could mean that the phone will have support for adaptive refresh rate, with support for a high refresh rate of 120Hz.

There’s also a possibility of the Huawei Mate 50 smartphone having support for satellite connectivity when the cellular network isn’t available. The feature can be used to communicate via short message service (SMS) where a cellular network isn’t an option.

For this, the company has reportedly opted for the Beidou Satellite System. It is being reported that because of this new feature addition, the launch of the upcoming flagship smartphone from Huawei has been delayed.
