Huawei Mate 80 Pro: Pre-orders and freebies

Huawei Singapore has announced the availability and pricing of its latest flagship smartphone, the Mate 80 Pro.

New Design Philosophy with Improved Durability

The Mate 80 Pro features Huawei’s Dual Space Ring Design, a symmetrical aesthetic that the company says represents innovation and exploration. One ring symbolises the perseverance to venture into uncharted territory, while the other reflects the courage to forge new paths.

Its rear panel is crafted from ultra-durable vegan fibre, giving the 6.75-inch smartphone a premium feel, a more comfortable grip, and up to five times greater impact resistance.

On the front, the 6.75-inch OLED display is protected by second-generation Kunlun Glass, which Huawei says offers 20x better drop resistance than conventional glass. The smartphone also carries an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance, alongside an IP69 rating for high-temperature and high-pressure water jets.

True-to-Colour Camera System

Huawei equips the Mate 80 Pro with a triple rear camera setup comprising a large 1/1.28-inch 50MP Ultra Lighting main camera, a 48MP Ultra Lighting telephoto macro lens with 4x optical zoom and a minimum focusing distance of just 5cm, and a 40MP ultra-wide camera.

A standout feature is the main camera’s adjustable physical aperture, which can be set anywhere between f/1.4 and f/4.0.

The triple-camera system is further enhanced by Huawei’s True-to-Colour Camera technology, powered by a 9th-generation image signal processor. According to Huawei, it delivers a 43% improvement in colour reproduction through advanced data processing and video noise reduction.

Better Performance with SuperCool Dual Phase Change Heat Dissipation System

The Mate 80 Pro is powered by the Kirin 9030 chipset, which Huawei says delivers 21% better performance than the Mate 70 Pro. To manage heat during demanding workloads, the phone uses a cooling system which Huawei calls SuperCool Dual Phase Change Heat Dissipation System. It’s designed to improve thermal conductivity by 16% and reduce temperature rise by 33%.

AI Features

The Mate 80 Pro ships with three AI-powered features to improve mobile photography. AI Remove can erase unwanted elements in the background and reconstruct the scene for a more natural-looking result. AI Best Expression analyses burst shots and combines the best expressions from each person into a single photo, helping you create the ideal group photo. Meanwhile, AI Composition offers real-time framing guidance to help you capture more balanced and professional-looking shots.

The Mate 80 Pro is priced at S$1,298 and will be available for pre-order from 24 March at all Huawei Experience Stores, Huawei Official Stores on Shopee, Lazada, and TikTok Shop.
