The HUAWEI Mate50 series redefines the concept of smartphone photography with the introduction of the new XMAGE camera system. Developed inhouse by HUAWEI, the new XMAGE camera system is the first smartphone to feature a 10-size adjustable physical aperture, allowing it to automatically swap from F/1.4 all the way to F/4.0 depending on light conditions.

This is combined with the powerful XD Fusion Pro image engine that enables even novice users to capture beautiful images and exquisite videos brimming with colour and detail. In fact, the Huawei Mate50 Pro has become the top rated smartphone by camera score by DxOMark.

As pinnacles of smartphone design, the HUAWEI Mate50 series also set new standards in terms of toughness and durability. On top of IP68 water and dust resistance across all models in the Mate50 series, the Mate50 Pro Vegan Leather uses special Kunlun glass forged in a special process that renders it more resistant to drops such that it has earned a prestigious 5 star drop resistance certification from Switzerland’s SGS authority.

HUAWEI Mate50 series – Huge battery and Innovative Emergency Mode for when the going gets tough

Running out of battery power is nightmare fuel for any smartphone user but the HUAWEI Mate50 series puts that fear to rest as it features a large 4,700mAh battery that is not only lighter than its predecessors in the Mate40 series but also offers longer endurance than ever before. 

Better yet, the HUAWEI Mate50 series features a truly innovative Emergency Mode that activates when the battery falls to 1%. When activated, Emergency Mode extends the Mate50 series’ standby time to over 2 hours which is equivalent to 12 minutes of call time which is more than enough to get home or make an emergency phone call

HUAWEI Mate50 series – The first smartphone running the new EMUI 13 with SuperStorage and SuperHub

The new HUAWEI Mate50 series are the world’s first smartphones to run the latest EMUI 13 firmware which offer a host of optimisations for performance and intuitive ease of use. Chief among its numerous updates is the addition of a powerful new SuperStorage feature that can help to save up to 20GB of storage by compressing rarely used applications and intelligently removing duplicate files on the phone to save every single megabyte of space.

Where SuperStorage helps to maximise space, EMUI 13’s new SuperHub feature helps to make transferring content effortlessly easy by temporarily storing content be it photos, documents or even text in a cache and sharing it in batches between apps and devices . 

HUAWEI Mate50 series – Safety and security redefined for HUAWEI AppGallery

Safety, security and privacy are paramount concerns with the Huawei AppGallery. Each and every app available on the HUAWEI AppGallery goes through a rigorous four-step security check procedure before being authorised to for download that includes registering the real names of the developer and company to ensure no fake or malicious apps appear, a comprehensive audit of the app itself by cybersecurity experts as well as security verification and additional threat detection to ensure that the app is safe to use and install. As a final step, apps on the AppGallery are also constantly monitored for signs of malicious activity.

Users also get peace of mind by activating the Security scanning function which also authenticates other apps installed to the HUAWEI Mate50 series smartphones and other Huawei devices by scanning for viruses, possible fraud attempts, potential privacy breach issues and other malicious behaviour with just one click. With the HUAWEI AppGallery, peace of mind is just one click away.

HUAWEI Mate50 series – Innovative new additions to AppGallery including a special surprise!

The HUAWEI Mate50 series combine a cutting edge array of hardware blended with the latest EMUI 13 user interface that also has a special surprise to take HUAWEI’s latest flagship phone to the next level – support for Google apps with a simple solution. By simply installing the new Lighthouse app on the HUAWEI AppGallery, the Mate50 series allows users to enjoy familiar Google apps they enjoy such as Google Maps, Google Meet, Google Drive, Gmail and even YouTube too.
