Huawei Mate 90 Pro Review: What the Spec Sheet Shows

This is a review based on the specifications, not on hands on testing. We have not used the Huawei Mate 90 Pro ourselves, so this piece looks at what the spec sheet and the reported details show. We will test it properly and update this piece if a review unit becomes available.

The key specifications

The Mate 90 Pro uses the Kirin 9035 chip and runs HarmonyOS 7. Its screen is a dual layer OLED at 120 Hz, with a diagonal of about 6.75 inches. Sources differ slightly on the exact size and resolution, so check Huawei's official sheet for the final figures. The battery is rated at 6,600 mAh, with 100 W wired charging, 50 W wireless charging and 18 W reverse wired charging.

Where it looks strong

The 100 W wired charging will matter for buyers who charge often. The 6,600 mAh battery and the 120 Hz screen are a solid pairing for a large display. The 16 GB option with 1 TB of storage gives heavy users more room than the base configuration.

Where it asks for a compromise

The Mate 90 Pro has no storage expansion, so the storage you choose is what you keep. Its international pricing and release plans have not been confirmed, and the figures in this piece are for the Chinese launch. App availability outside China depends on Huawei's own ecosystem, so check which apps you rely on before buying.

Verdict from the specifications

On paper, the Mate 90 Pro is a strong large phone with fast charging and a long battery. If you can buy it in your market and your apps work on HarmonyOS, it is worth a serious look. We will update this review after hands on testing, and once Huawei confirms international pricing.
