Huawei Mate 9 Pro will cost $1,300

China tech giant Huawei is set to release its next flagship smartphone line, believed to be called the Huawei Mate 9, at its event in Munich, Germany on November 3.

If the latest leak is anything to go by, it appears the Mate 9 will very much look like its predecessor, the Huawei Mate 8. That's to say we're likely to see a slightly rounded, wide, all-metal rear with parallel antenna bands running horizontally near the top and the bottom edges.

On the back, a dual camera system will sit near the top, with the two lenses sitting vertically, rather than side-by-side horizontally like the Huawei P9 and P9 Plus. On either side of the camera system, there's a dual LED flash and a laser sensor for autofocusing, while the round fingerprint scanner sits underneath.

GizOK reports that the upcoming new Huawei Mate 9 and Huawei Mate 9 Pro will feature 5.9-inch displays, Kirin 960 processors, 4GB of RAM and as much as 256GB of internal storage. The higher-end “Pro” model will reportedly feature quad HD resolution and a dual lens camera set up that offers up to 4x optical zoom, outdoing Apple’s new iPhone 7 Plus and its 2x optical zoom.

Here’s the kicker: According to a tweet from Blass, a Huawei Mate 9 Pro with 256GB of storage will cost a whopping $1,300.
