A Weibo tipster has revealed that Huawei could launch a 5G phone case that will enable 4G devices to transit to 5G connectivity. Currently, Huawei devices do not support 5G connectivity due to chip restrictions. The new technology could prove very important although the optics and performance capability of the system has not been established.
A chipset that supports 5G will trump the use of a 5G phone case inside a 4G-enabled device, but this could provide better performance than 4G. There is no official confirmation yet from Huawei on the rumored 5G phone cover and we do not have any release details yet. The Weibo tipster also stated that the rumored 5G phone case will indeed be less efficient than an integrated 5G chipset.
An image of the rumored Huawei 5G phone case was also shared by the tipster. It shows a large camera cutout that bears a striking semblance with the P50 series, The case also has a base gradient finishing on its rear side. The phone case, as per the render, has network bands on all sides meaning that it could indeed perform better than a regular P50 case for example.
Huawei continues to pursue ways of overcoming the debilitating sanction regime that has significantly downgraded its strides previously as a 5G leader. It had garnered loads of patents and even projected making inroads into 6G technology before sanctions rolled in.
