Huawei’s next flagship lineup, the Mate 80 series, could arrive as soon as November, according to a new leak from reliable tipster Digital Chat Station on Weibo.
The post claims that the standard Mate 80 will come in black, white, and turquoise, while the entire Mate 80 lineup has been tentatively scheduled for release next month.
Alongside the smartphones, Huawei has reportedly filed for a new 2-in-1 tablet release in the same month. It will be available in Moonlight Silver and Space Gray and is said to integrate deeply with Huawei’s Hongmeng (HarmonyOS) multi-terminal ecosystem. That is, cross-device connectivity across phones, PCs, and tablets.
MateBook E 2025 could launch alongside Mate 80
Interestingly, another Weibo leaker, Superdimensional, mentioned last week that Huawei is preparing to launch a HarmonyOS-powered PC in China, called the MateBook E 2025. The new leak from Digital Chat Station seems to back that up.
MateBook E is a line of 2-in-1 PCs from Huawei that features a built-in kickstand and a detachable keyboard. The last device in the series was the MateBook E 2023, powered by the Intel Alder Lake-U processors. According to Superdimensional, the MateBook E 2025 could run on the Kirin 9000X chip instead, with HarmonyOS 5.1 pre-installed.
As for the Mate 80 lineup, it’s expected to include four models: Mate 80, Mate 80 Pro, Mate 80 Pro+, and Mate 80 RS. The phones are likely to be powered by the new Kirin 9030 chipset. The Mate 70 series introduced the Kirin 9020, so this would be the next logical step in Huawei’s chip roadmap.
The specifications for both chips remain under wraps, but we could likely see the company unveil Kirin 9000X and Kirin 9030 at the same event.
