As per reports, the Huawei Pocket 2 will have a similar design language as the P50 Pocket and Pocket S, meaning it will have two circular modules on the back, one for the triple camera unit and the other one for the secondary display.

The Pocket 2 is expected to arrive in three shades, such as white, black, and purple. It is speculated that the purple variant may have a leather finish, while the other two shades may feature a glass back. Rumors also claim that there could be a customized version of the device with “Art” branding.

In terms of specifications, the Pocket 2 is reported to feature a 4,520mAh battery with 66W fast charging capability. If these rumors are accurate, it would make it the clamshell phone with the largest battery capacity to date.

The predecessor Pocket models lacked support for 5G connectivity. However, the inclusion of the Kirin 9000S chip is expected to enable 5G connectivity on the Pocket 2. The device is expected to ship with up to 12 GB of RAM and 512 GB of storage. In addition, it is expected to offer other features, such as support for messaging via satellite connectivity and a waterproof build.

Huawei is set to unveil the Freelace Pro 2 Bluetooth neckband alongside the Pocket 2. However, specific details about the device are currently limited.
