Huawei’s China purchase guide lists five phones in the Huawei Mate 90 lineup: Mate 90, Mate 90 Pro, Mate 90 Pro Max, Mate 90 Pro Max Collector’s Edition and Mate 90 RS Ultimate Design. It scheduled first sales for 12:08 on October 1, 2026. NeoTeo’s earlier coverage of the Mate 90 lineup and China sales focused on four models.
What distinguishes each Mate 90 model
Reported specifications show the clearest differences in screen size, telephoto cameras and connectivity. Huawei’s guide calls the special Pro Max version the Collector’s Edition.
| Model | Distinguishing features |
| Mate 90 | 6.75-inch OLED display; 50MP 4× telephoto camera; Kirin 9030 processor |
| Mate 90 Pro | 6.75-inch dual-layer OLED display; 50MP 4× macro telephoto camera; Kirin 9035 processor |
| Mate 90 Pro Max | 6.9-inch dual-layer OLED display; 200MP 4× telephoto camera; 6,800mAh typical battery |
| Mate 90 Pro Max Collector’s Edition | 6.9-inch dual-layer OLED display; 200MP 4× telephoto camera; compatible with the Ruiying Z10 camera |
| Mate 90 RS Ultimate Design | 6.9-inch dual-layer OLED display; 200MP 4× telephoto camera; Tiantong satellite calling and BeiDou messaging; compatible with the Ruiying Z10 camera |
The Mate 90 and Mate 90 Pro have reported typical battery capacities of 6,600mAh; the Pro Max, Collector’s Edition and RS are listed at 6,800mAh. The Pro and higher models are also reported to reach a peak brightness of 12,000 nits at 1% APL—a measurement condition covering a small portion of the display. That figure is not a full-screen brightness claim.
China configurations and listed prices
Huawei lists 14 handset configurations, priced from CNY 5,999 for the Mate 90 with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage to CNY 18,999 for the Mate 90 RS with 16GB of RAM and 2TB of storage.
The separately listed CNY 19,499 kit pairs a 16GB/1TB Mate 90 Pro Max Collector’s Edition with the Ruiying Z10 camera. These are China-listed prices.
The Ruiying Z10 works with two Mate 90 models
Huawei names the Mate 90 Pro Max Collector’s Edition and Mate 90 RS as compatible with the Ruiying Z10. The camera module has a 1-inch stacked CMOS sensor, 50MP effective resolution and a 24–240mm 35mm-equivalent focal-length range. It weighs approximately 346g, making it a substantial add-on rather than a minor phone accessory.
