Although Huawei's release timeline has been erratic, the company did indicate that it still intends to eventually release the Mate 50 series. The most recent information on the subject includes renderings for the three major phones, a new tablet, and a range of speculative features. Please take note that these are incredibly speculative and may turn out to be wishful thinking.

Although only 4G connectivity is available, the Huawei Mate 50, Mate 50 Pro, and Mate 50 RS are listed with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip (instead of the Snapdragon 888). The Pro model will probably feature a 5G casing, similar to the one for the P50 Pro, to get around that, and the RS will also have a similar solution. Pro and RS models will feature 12GB of RAM and 28/256/512GB storage, the vanilla Mate 50 will go down to 8GB of RAM and 128/256GB storage.
According to reports, the smartphones will also have an NPU from HiSilicon for the XMAGE processing, an internal replacement for the camera technology created in collaboration with Leica.
Speaking of the camera, it is rumoured to have a 50MP main camera with a switchable f/1.4 and f/4 aperture. That should be an IMX800 on the Mate 50 Pro and Mate 50 RS, but an IMX766 on the base device. Although the specifications of the ultra wide and telephoto lenses are unknown, all three models are anticipated to contain them. On the Pro and RS variants, the selfie camera will be a 13MP device with a 3D sensor for face unlock.
