Source: Huawei

Huawei's ongoing partnership has produced special edition versions of its handsets through the years. With the launch of the Mate 40 series, of course, we get the new Porsche Design Huawei Mate 40 RS. Aside from that flagship handset, we also get a special edition version of its Watch GT 2 this time.

Let's talk about the phone first. The Porsche Design variant shares many features of the Mate 40, but with a few even more premium specs to justify its price and positioning. Mate 40 RS will set interested buyers by a whopping €2,295 (around CA$3,566).

Huawei and Porsche Design amps up the best features of the P20 Pro with the Mate RS, including the price

 

An exorbitant amount of money will need to be shelled out if you’re even thinking about getting the Porsche Design version of the P20 phones. Called the Porsche Huawei Mate RS, this extremely high-end version of the P20 Pro. This one packs in two fingerprint readers, a 512GB storage option, 6-inch OLED screen, Kirin 970 processor, Android 8.1, 6GB of RAM, IP67 rating, 4,000mAh battery with wireless charging support, and no top notch in sight. Of course, you get the Leica co-branded triple camera system you’ve seen in the P20 Pro. But you will pay a pretty penny for this. The 256GB version is priced €1,695 (around $2,700 CAD) and the 512GB version is priced at €2,095 (around $3,300 CAD).

No word yet if this phone will make its way here but it is launching in China, Hong Kong, and Macau on April 12th, and will then be launched in France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, and the UK. It’s also expected to launch in Southeast Asia in the middle of May.
