According to a new tip from China, the Huawei Mate 80 RS will not feature the rumored fan system in its camera island. Nonetheless, the phone is said to sport two telephoto lenses on its system.
The Mate 80 series is expected to be announced this month. The lineup includes several models, including the Huawei Mate 80, Mate 80 Pro, Mate 80 Pro+, and Mate 80 RS models.
According to earlier reports, the lineup will present some upgrades, including a waterproof cooling fan-armed camera island on its back. However, tipster Fixed Focus Digital claims that this won’t be the case for the RS variant in the series. While the account did not share the specifics and the reason why, he noted that the device would have two telephoto cameras on its back. Fans speculate that the rumored fan feature might be limited to the Pro and Pro+ models.
According to leaks, the series will feature a variable aperture, upgraded zoom and flash, and a color temperature sensor. According to reports, the vanilla and Pro models will feature 50MP 1/1.5″ and 50MP 1/1.3″ main cameras. The Pro+ and RS models, on the other hand, are rumored to come with a 50MP 1/1.3″ SmartSens 590 sensor.
The news follows several leaks about the phones, including the arrival of 3D face recognition in all models, a battery capacity of around 6,000mAh, and built-in magnets for wireless charging. The Mate 80 series is also reportedly equipped with better power management and reduced power consumption. This complements an earlier leak stating that the series will utilize the Kirin 9030 chip, which is expected to offer 20% better performance than its predecessor. The devices’ memory has also been upgraded, and the lineup is said to offer “system-level AI analytics and services.”
