The Huawei Mate 50 Pro 512GB is Huawei Test's 2023 smartphone featuring a 6.74 inches, 111.8 cm2 (~91.3% screen-to-body ratio) display, the Qualcomm SM8475 Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 4G (4 nm) chipset. It comes with a 4700 mAh battery. Available in the UAE from AED 2,549.
The Huawei Mate 50 Pro excels with its 66W wired and 50W wireless charging, delivering 0–70% in under 30 minutes, and its 120Hz OLED display with 428 ppi ensures buttery, sharp visuals. The 512GB storage and 205g weight make it a premium, clutter-free daily driver. Ideal for professionals in UAE who need fast charging during commutes and reliable NFC for contactless payments, without relying on Google services. Its weakness? No Google Mobile Services on EMUI 13, limiting app access and cloud sync in non-China markets. In UAE at AED 2549, it’s competitive because it outpaces Samsung’s S23 in wired charging speed and offers superior screen resolution at this price. In India at ₹N/A, it’s not recommended — absence of official sales, no after-sales support, and no 5G band compatibility for local carriers make ownership impractical.
