The first information about Huawei’s next flagship, the Huawei Mate 80 series, has begun to emerge. Unlike last year’s delay with the Mate 70 series, the tech giant appears to be moving quickly this time around. According to industry sources, Huawei has stepped up its development and could release its new flagship in October.

What will the Huawei Mate 80 series be like?

Last year, the Mate 70 series was released in November due to its next-generation 5G Kirin chip and optimizations to the HarmonyOS NEXT operating system. This led to expectations of a similar timeline for the Mate 80.

According to reliable leaker FixedFocus, production is progressing smoothly, and this momentum could allow for an earlier-than-expected launch.

One of the most anticipated aspects of the Mate 80 series is undoubtedly its processor. Leaks claim that the series will be powered by the Kirin 9030 5G chipset. This new processor is rumored to offer a 20% performance increase compared to the previous-generation Kirin 9020. This is a significant development that will elevate the user experience in both daily use and demanding applications.

Huawei also appears to have taken precautions against potential heat issues brought on by the increased performance. The company is reportedly using a new cooling fan technology designed to prevent overheating, particularly in the higher-end models of the series.

This new cooling solution can ensure devices remain stable and cool even during extended periods of intensive use.
