The Huawei Mate 60 RS Ultimate 256GB is Huawei Test's 2023 smartphone featuring a 6.82 inches, 114.4 cm2 (~88.5% screen-to-body ratio) display, the Kirin 9000S (7 nm) chipset. It comes with a 5000 mAh battery. Available in the UAE from AED 7,999.
The Huawei Mate 60 RS Ultimate excels with its 48MP f/1.4-f/4.0 main sensor with OIS, delivering exceptional low-light detail, and the 48MP periscope telephoto with 3.5x optical zoom for crisp long-range shots. Its 5000mAh battery charges fully in 30 minutes via 88W wired charging, outpacing most flagships. The 120Hz LTPO OLED display with 1B colors ensures buttery, accurate visuals. This phone targets professional photographers and business travelers who need premium imaging, rapid charging, and 5G connectivity without relying on Google services. Its weakness is HarmonyOS 4.0’s limited app ecosystem outside China, hindering access to key global apps like WhatsApp or banking platforms. In UAE at AED 7999, it’s overpriced because competitors like the iPhone 15 Pro Max offer better app support and resale value at similar cost. In India at ₹N/A, it’s not recommended — absence of Google Mobile Services and no official sales channel make ownership impractical despite hardware prowess.
