In August, an upcoming clamshell phone by Huawei was approved by China’s TENAA telecom authority. The listing only revealed the images of the phone. Following reports claimed that the device may be released in China with the “Huawei P50 Pocket New” moniker. However, the company released an official confirmation that the device will be called the Huawei P50 Pocket S and it will be made official at 7 PM on Nov. 2 in the home market.

The official teaser video released by the brand does not reveal the design of the Huawei P50 Pocket S. However, it confirms that the device will be made available in as many as six colors like black, blue, pink, white, green, and yellow.

The original Huawei P50 Pocket, which went official in December 2021, was powered by the Snapdragon 888 4G mobile platform. There are a lot of rumors that the Snapdragon 778G 4G chipset will power the new Pocket S.

It is speculated that the Huawei P50 Pocket S will not feature a secondary display. The device is speculated to arrive with a 120Hz OLED foldable display, HarmonyOS 3, and the company’s XMAGE image processing technology. The inclusion of the SD778G chip is a good hint that it will be an affordable clamshell phone. The 256 GB edition of the Huawei Pocket S may cost 4,999 Yuan (~$689). On the other hand, its 512 GB edition, may arrive with a 6,999 Yuan (~$965) price tag.

It appears that the Huawei P50 Pocket S will not be the only device to debut on Nov. 2. A recent report claimed that Huawei may unveil the Huawei Watch GT Cyber alongside the P50 Pocket S.
