Official pages list Kirin 9030 on the base model, Kirin 9035 on the Pro, Kirin 9050-series on the Pro Max, and Kirin 9050 Pro on the RS Ultimate Design. On October 28, 2026 Huawei launched the Enjoy 100 Pro Max in China from 1,999 yuan. IT Home reported 128 GB, 256 GB and 512 GB prices of 1,999, 2,399 and 2,899 yuan.

The Mate XT 2 trifold remains listed from 19,999 yuan after the September 7 launch. IDC's October 29, 2026 note says China smartphone shipments were about 58.06 million, down 15.2 percent, and its vendor heading says Huawei's share rose to 21.1 percent, with shipments up by a double-digit rate. That page does not print Huawei units. IDC's October 14 press listing for the preliminary release said shipments fell 15.4 percent to 57.9 million and Huawei grew 17.3 percent. Reuters on October 13 rounded that preliminary share to 21 percent and printed 12.2 million units. TelecomLead printed 21.1 percent and no units. The October 29 note also says Huawei's China foldable share exceeded 70 percent of a 1.77 million unit market. That is not a 75 percent figure and not a Pura X Max count. No Huawei-disclosed Mate 90 first-week or October sell-through was found. The April 2026 fact sheet still lists 213,000 employees, private employee ownership, Huawei Base in Shenzhen, and founding in 1987. No chief executive title is stored.
