Porsche Design Huawei Mate RS Specs:

The P20 and the P20 Pro aren’t the only smartphones announced by Huawei yesterday. The Chinese company also launched the Porsche Design Huawei Mate RS.

The Porsche Design Huawei Mate RS is technically another flagship release. It features the Porsche Design aesthetic, plus the P20 Pro’s spec sheet and a bit more.

The phone fronts a 6.0-inch OLED display with a 2880 by 1440 resolution and an 18:9 aspect ratio. It is powered by a Kirin 970 processor with an NPU, 6GB of RAM, and 256GB of storage.

The handset features two fingerprint sensors built to secure and unlock it. One is in-display, allowing users to unlock the phone through the OLED screen, and the other is a regular rear-mounted sensor beneath the camera.

Surprisingly, the Mate RS distinguished itself from the P20 series by excluding the notch on the display. It still has slim bezels on the sides, and a slightly thicker (yet still small) on the top and bottom.

The phone, though, used the P20 Pro’s triple camera system which consist of a primary 40MP RGB sensor, a 20MP monochrome sensor, and an 8MP telephoto sensor. All three sensors work together to make the camera shoot faster, providing up to 5x zoom, with a maximum ISO of 102,400.

The Porsche Design Huawei Mate RS won’t come in cheap. It has an eye-watering retail price of EUR 1,695 (about PHP110,200 or USD 2,109) for the 256GB, and EUR 2,095 (PHP 136,200 or USD 2,607) for the 512GB.
