Huawei and Porsche have been partnering for the past few years to deliver a luxe version of the former’s handsets. This year is no different, as Huawei has announced the Porsche Design Mate 20 RS.
Today, Huawei announced its latest handsets, the Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro. While the latter of the pair will retail for €1,049 or around $1,214, there is an even costlier option, which comes in the form of the Porsche Design Huawei Mate 20 RS.
Porsche and Huawei’s relationship continues with the new Mate 20 series, as the two companies will deliver a handset that offers an “uncompromised design” with an added bit of luxury. The handset will offer a 6.39-inch 2K+ OLED display, Kirin 980 processor, 8GB RAM, and 256GB or 512GB of internal storage. It will have a triple camera setup on its rear, making use of 40MP wide-angle, 20MP super wide-angle, and 8MP telephoto sensors. The front will have a 24MP front-facing camera and also a “3D Depth Sensing Camera” for facial recognition. The handset will make use of a 4,200mAh battery.
As far as aesthetics go, the rear of the smartphone will be wrapped in “handcrafted semi-aniline top grain leather”, and will be split in the middle by a space of glass. The Porsche Design Huawei Mate 20 RS will be available in both black and red, costing €1,695 (around $1,961) for the 256GB model and €2,095 (around $2,424) for the 512GB version.
