Huawei Lists Mate 90 Series Sale at 12:08 on 1 October 2026, From 5,999 Yuan

Huawei has published an official purchase guide that places the HUAWEI Mate 90 series on sale in China at 12:08 on 1 October 2026, with HarmonyOS 7.0 named as the applicable version and opening prices running from 5,999 yuan. The page, titled HUAWEI Mate 90系列购买指引 and hosted on Huawei’s consumer support site as content zh-cn16119533, is a channel and price record. It is not a specification sheet. For a buyer, a founder tracking flagship list prices, or an investor reading the China handset ladder, the operative facts are the stamped sale time, the configuration-level 首发价格, and a disclaimer that those figures are not what a customer necessarily pays.

The guide’s table records 正式开售时间 in a single cell. Against HUAWEI Mate 90 全网通版 12GB+256GB it reads 2026年10月1日12：08. Every other row leaves that cell blank: higher storage on the same Mate 90, the Pro, the Pro Max, the 典藏版, the camera kit, and the RS | ULTIMATE DESIGN. The page is headed as a series purchase guide and groups those models under one applicable-product set, but it does not repeat the timestamp. Treating 12:08 as an explicit open for the 16GB+2TB RS, or for the camera kit, would go past what the table prints. The page carries no publication date and no author.

Opening prices are stated in yuan as 首发价格, and every handset row is labeled 全网通版. On the HUAWEI Mate 90系列购买指引, the HUAWEI Mate 90 is listed at 5999元 for 12GB+256GB, 6999元 for 12GB+512GB, and 8499元 for 12GB+1TB, in 晶格绿, 晶格粉, 零度白, and 曜石黑. The HUAWEI Mate 90 Pro starts at 6999元 for 12GB+256GB, then 7999元 for 12GB+512GB, 8499元 for 16GB+512GB, and 9999元 for 16GB+1TB, in 翡冷翠, 琥珀橙, 晶钻白, and 曜石黑. The step from the base Mate 90 to the base Pro is 1,000 yuan at the 12GB+256GB tier. The Pro is also the first model in the table to offer a 16GB memory configuration.

HUAWEI Mate 90 Pro Max is listed at 9499元 for 12GB+512GB and 9999元 for 16GB+512GB, in 翡冷翠, 玫瑰金, 晶钻白, and 曜石黑. The HUAWEI Mate 90 Pro Max 典藏版 sits above that line: 10999元 for 16GB+512GB and 12999元 for 16GB+1TB, in the same four colors. A further row, HUAWEI Mate 90 Pro Max 典藏版 华为睿影Z10 模块相机套装, is listed only as 全网通版 16GB+1TB in 晶钻白, at 19499元. That kit is the highest initial price on the page. It is 6,500 yuan above the 典藏版 handset in the same memory and storage configuration, and it is the only row restricted to a single color.

HUAWEI Mate 90 RS | ULTIMATE DESIGN is listed in three 全网通版 configurations, colors 瑞红, 皓白, and 玄黑: 12999元 for 16GB+512GB, 14999元 for 16GB+1TB, and 18999元 for 16GB+2TB. The 2TB row is the highest handset-only price in the guide. The RS name on the page includes the English tag ULTIMATE DESIGN. Applicable version for the product set, stated once above the table, is HarmonyOS 7.0. The applicable-product line also names the Pro Max 典藏版, the Mate 90, the Pro Max, the RS | ULTIMATE DESIGN, the 睿影Z10 camera kit, and the Pro.

Huawei qualifies the ladder in the same document. The guide states: “最终首发价格以各购买渠道为准，且由于各销售渠道会不定期做价格和优惠调整，实际价格请以产品最终成交价格为准；首销渠道信息供参考，后续各渠道的上新情况请以实际为准。” Final launch price follows each purchasing channel. Channels adjust prices and offers from time to time. The price that counts is the transaction price. First-sale channel information is for reference, and later availability follows what each channel actually stocks. Named routes are official. Online, the guide points buyers to 华为商城VMALL, the 华为天猫官方旗舰店, and other official online channels. Offline, it points to 华为授权体验店, 华为智能生活馆, and other official offline channels. The page does not publish inventory, allocation, or a store count.
