Huawei’s upcoming Mate 60 series has been leaked again. This time, a photo of the back cover of the phone was shared by tipster Digital Chat Station on Weibo. The photo shows the Mate 60 series smartphone’s back chassis, which is completely carved out of metal.  

The lower half of this chassis extends to the middle frame, while the remaining half of the phone has a cavity that shows the bare bones of the circular camera island. This cavity is likely to be fitted with a glass panel.

The leak is consistent with an earlier leak that showed the phone in ivory-white. The new leak shows that the phone has an entirely gray bottom part, with an ivory hue on the upper half.

It is unclear if this design is purely aesthetic or if it has a functional purpose. Huawei is known for its innovative designs, and the upcoming Mate 60 series looks no exception.

Meanwhile, the Huawei Mate 60 series is expected to be released on September 12. It has already started mass production and is confirmed by multiple industry insiders. 

The phone will have a hole-punch screen design and support 3D face recognition. The Mate 60 series will most likely be powered by Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor and it will run on the company’s new Harmony OS 4.0 system. Rumors have also surfaced about the phone supporting satellite communication. 

Likewise, the Huawei Mate 60 series is expected to support voice calling via satellite, unlike the Mate X3 and P60 series, which only support two-way satellite communication via SMS. 

This is thanks to the new power amplifier chips that the Mate 60 series will have. These chips are specifically designed for the Tiantong-1 satellite mobile communication system, which can be used for voice communication, image transmission, precise positioning, and data reporting.
