It's official

Reveal

The day it is shown to the world

30 September 2026

Confirmed · 5 days ago

For the record, we had guessed 28 Sept 2026 — 2 days too early.

Where it will almost certainly land Still possible, but unlikelyThe higher the shape, the more likely that date.
Where we started When Huawei usually launches No pattern for this model yet, so we started from the time of year Huawei normally picks.
Reports behind it 2 separate stories Found across 2 articles. When several sites repeat the same leak, we count it once — otherwise one rumour would look like proof.
Since last time No change Last changed on 24 Sept 2026. We recheck every day, and only write a new forecast down when this answer moves.

Numbers, for the curious

The 80% range runs 24 Sept 2026 to 7 Oct 2026 (13 days wide), with a standard deviation of 8 days. Starting model: manufacturer_seasonal+coupled (reveal and on-sale dates were solved together, so neither can end up before the other).

Where you will be able to buy it

Not known yet Not enough to go on yet

No report so far says which countries this one is for.

reports so far do not settle where it goes on sale.

China around 24 Sept 2026 ± 10 days from ¥2,799 Reported 1 source
across 2 reports, they roughly agree

These are the places that have actually been mentioned in reports about this phone. A country missing from this list has not been ruled out — nobody writing about an unreleased phone lists the countries it is skipping, so we cannot tell either way.

Who called it right

Now that the real date is known, everyone who made a prediction gets marked. "Too late" means they said a later date than what actually happened.
