Huawei has launched a new version of its Mate 80 Pro Max (review), called the Mate 80 Pro Max Wind Edition. This model adds a built-in cooling fan and is currently available for pre-order in China. The company is expected to share full details at its March 23 launch event.
The phone looks similar to the standard Mate 80 Pro Max, but there are visible changes in the camera area. The rear camera ring is wider and includes small ventilation holes. These vents house an active cooling fan placed inside the camera module. This setup is designed to control heat during heavy usage.
The fan is expected to help the Kirin 9030 Pro chipset maintain performance during long sessions such as gaming or intensive tasks. It may also help with heat management during extended video recording. To make space for the fan, Huawei has removed one rear camera. The Wind Edition features a triple-camera system instead of the quad-camera setup on the standard model.
Other specifications remain the same as the regular variant. The device has a 6.9-inch AMOLED LTPO display. It is powered by the Kirin 9030 Pro processor and includes a 6,000mAh battery. Charging support includes 100W wired and 80W wireless charging.
The Mate 80 Pro Max Wind Edition is available in Polar Night Black and Polar Day Gold. It comes in two storage options: 16GB RAM with 512GB storage, and 16GB RAM with 1TB storage.
Huawei has not confirmed the price yet. For reference, the standard Mate 80 Pro Max starts at 7,999 yuan ($1,162) in China. Pricing and more details are expected to be announced at the March 23 event.
