Speculations about the device's specifications are also circulating. The Mate 60 is rumored to adopt a "Spirit Island" design, showcasing a pill-shaped front camera cutout reminiscent of the iPhone 14 Pro's design.

Additionally, the camera system is rumored to include a 50MP primary sensor, a 12MP periscope telephoto lens, and a 13MP ultrawide sensor.

On the software front, Huawei has been making strides with its recent launch of HarmonyOS 4.0, currently in its closed beta stage. With this new update in the fray, it's plausible that the Mate 60 will come pre-loaded with HarmonyOS 4.
