Huawei Mate 60 Pro Review: A Powerful Flagship on HarmonyOS

Huawei introduced its latest flagship smartphone, the Mate 60 Pro, packed with top-tier specs and features. Running on the company’s own HarmonyOS, it’s one of the most advanced Android alternatives available.

The 6.8-inch OLED screen is simply stunning with its sharp 1260p resolution and silky 120Hz refresh rate. It’s also protected by tough Kunlun Glass 2. Inside is the powerful Kirin 9000S chipset for lightning-fast performance.

Camera specs are mighty impressive as well. The triple lens setup includes a flagship 50MP main sensor, 48MP 3.5x telephoto, and 12MP ultrawide. Video is a specialty with 8K recording available. Selfies are handled by a 13MP front camera.

Battery life is strong thanks to the 5000mAh cell. Even better, it supports blazing-fast 88W wired charging that juices up the phone in just 30 minutes. There’s also 50W wireless charging onboard.

At around $1000, it’s not cheap but you’re getting top-shelf specs, build quality, and HarmonyOS. Performance is buttery smooth and the software experience is polished. It proves Huawei can compete without Google services.

While the app selection won’t match Android, the Mate 60 Pro delivers where it counts – performance, photography, and features. It asserts Huawei’s place among the elite smartphone makers.
