Huawei’s rumored Mate X8 could emphasize camera flexibility alongside the tablet-like workspace expected from a book-style foldable. A leak attributed to Weibo tipster Smart Pikachu points to an approximately 8-inch inner display, the Kirin 9050 Pro processor, a 50MP main camera, and a separate 50MP periscope telephoto camera. None of those details has been confirmed by Huawei.
A possible zoom-focused camera upgrade
The periscope camera is said to use an RYYB color filter, replacing the conventional red-green-green-blue arrangement with red-yellow-yellow-blue pixels. That design is intended to capture more light, which could be particularly useful for zoom shots in dim conditions. The same report also mentions telemacro photography and slow-motion video.
- 50MP main camera, described as offering very high dynamic range
- 50MP RYYB periscope telephoto camera
- Multispectral sensor intended to improve color reproduction
Separate display and battery rumors have put the Mate X8 at a 6.5-inch outer display, an 8.15-inch folding inner panel, and a battery larger than 6,000mAh. If accurate, that would make the device a potentially more capable large-screen companion for reading, multitasking, and media than a conventional phone, while retaining a pocketable folded form. A possible 1-inch main camera sensor has also been mentioned, but remains unverified.
Launch timing and wider Huawei plans remain unclear
Rumors have suggested a possible November presentation in China, but they do not establish a broader launch timetable. U.S. availability and pricing have not been indicated. Huawei may also be preparing a second-generation MatePad Mini with 5G and a high-refresh-rate display, as well as a foldable PC and new earbuds, though those products are likewise unconfirmed.
