On Aug. 4, Huawei will hold its 2023 Huawei Developers Conference HDC). The event will see the arrival of Harmony OS 4.0. Speculations are rife that the company may also unveil new Mate-branded phones at the same event. In a new leak, a Chinese tipster revealed the names of these upcoming devices.

Huawei Mate X3 Pro to support 5G connectivity

Based on the leak, it appears that Huawei may release three new devices, such as the Huawei Mate 60 4G, the Mate 60 5G, and the Mate X3 Pro 5G. While the rumor mill has leaked some details about the Mate 60 models, it is yet to reveal any information about the Mate X3 Pro.

The only thing known about the Huawei Mate X3 Pro 5G is that it will come with support for 5G connectivity. To recall, the Mate foldable phone, which was announced in the first half of this year, is a 4G device powered by the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1. Whether the Mate X3 Pro features the newer Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset remains to be seen.

The Mate X3 Pro moniker suggests that it will be an updated version of the Mate X3. To recall, the Mate X3 is a lightweight foldable phone, that weighs only 239 grams, making it thinner and lighter than the Apple iPhone 14 Pro Max. Hence, the Mate X3 Pro is a foldable phone that is worth looking forward to.

The Mate X3 Pro is expected to compete with recently announced foldable phones, such as the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5, the Honor Magic V2, and the Vivo X Fold 2. It will also compete with upcoming foldables, such as the Oppo Find N3 and the Xiaomi MIX Fold 3, which are expected to launch in August this year.
