Huawei Mate 60 RS Ultimate Design — Full Specifications, Features & Price in Pakistan

The Mate 60 RS Ultimate Design is Huawei's first luxury flagship without Porsche — the start of Huawei's own "Ultimate Design" line after the Porsche partnership ended. Under the ceramic skin and octagonal camera island, it's a Mate 60 Pro+ in a tuxedo: Kirin 9000S, 16GB RAM, triple 48MP-class cameras. In Pakistan it's the rarest Mate 60 of all, and priced like it. This is a collector's purchase, not a value purchase — and it carries the family's HMS-only, China-import DNA throughout.

Critical caveat first: this phone runs Huawei Mobile Services (HMS), not Google Mobile Services — there is no Google Play Store, and core Google apps (Gmail, Maps, YouTube) do not ship with the phone. Everything below assumes you are comfortable with that.

Design and Build Quality

This is the whole point of the RS: a ceramic back — harder and more scratch-resistant than glass — an aluminium frame, and a bold octagonal camera island with sharp sculpted lines, in dual-tone Red or Black. At 163.7 x 79 x 8.1 mm and 225g it has real presence. Huawei also sold exclusive Star Diamond cases and bundled one-year VIP privileges (airport lounges, concierge services) for owners who registered a Huawei Card — in China. IP68 dust/water resistance and Kunlun Glass 2 complete a build that justifies the "Ultimate" name on materials alone.

Display Features

The display is identical to the Mate 60 Pro+: a 6.82-inch LTPO OLED at 2720 x 1260 with adaptive 1–120Hz, 10-bit colour, P3 gamut and 1440Hz PWM dimming. Superb, and no different from the Pro+ — the RS premium buys the body, not the screen. If a seller claims the RS has a "better display" than the Pro+, that's not supported by Huawei's specifications.

Processor and Performance

The Kirin 9000S (7nm) with Maleoon 910 GPU — the same chip as every other Mate 60, paired here with 16GB of RAM. Performance is identical to the Pro+: smooth daily use, capable gaming at non-max settings, excellent HarmonyOS optimisation. The 5G situation is identical too: not officially confirmed by Huawei, with official sheets listing 4G LTE. You're paying for design and rarity, not silicon.

RAM and Storage

16GB RAM with 512GB or 1TB storage (NM card expandable) — the same top-tier memory package as the Pro+. For a luxury phone this is the right spec: 16GB keeps the phone fluid for years and 1TB swallows 4K video libraries. No 256GB option, which is fine at this positioning.

Camera Features

Hardware-identical to the Mate 60 Pro+: 48MP main (f/1.4–f/4.0 variable aperture, OIS), 40MP ultrawide, 48MP periscope tele-macro (3.5x, OIS), XMAGE processing, 4K60 video; 13MP ultrawide front camera with 3D depth sensor. It's the best camera set in the Mate 60 family — the 40MP ultrawide in particular outclasses the standard Pro's 12MP unit. The octagonal island is new; the optics inside are Pro+ optics.

Battery and Charging

5000mAh with 88W wired, 50W wireless and 20W reverse wireless charging — same as the Pro+. A full heavy day of endurance and half-hour-class refills with the 88W brick. No battery upgrade over the Pro+; the RS doesn't need one.

Software and Updates

HarmonyOS 4.0, China-market only, HMS only — no Google Play Store. The luxury framing makes the software limitation more glaring: this is among the most expensive phones Huawei has ever sold, and it can't run Play-Services-dependent apps natively. Chinese default apps and settings need cleanup for Pakistani use. Anyone spending RS money must verify their essential apps on HMS first — no exceptions.

Connectivity and Additional Features

4G LTE per official listings (5G unconfirmed), Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.2, NFC, USB-C 3.1, IR blaster, stereo speakers, in-display fingerprint and 3D face unlock. Satellite voice calls and messaging are supported — the same Tiantong/BeiDou systems as the Pro+ — and equally non-functional in Pakistan without a Chinese carrier plan. Dual SIM, NM card slot.

Variants, Colours and Availability

Variants: 16GB + 512GB (¥11,999) and 16GB + 1TB (¥12,999) at China launch — roughly $1,641 and $1,778. Colours: Red and Black, both dual-tone ceramic. The RS Ultimate was never officially launched in Pakistan and is the scarcest Mate 60 locally; most Pakistani buyers will never see one in person. Authenticity warning: the RS line succeeded the Porsche Design co-branding, and luxury Huawei editions attract counterfeits and re-bodied phones. Verify model number (ALN-AL10 per leak reporting), IMEI, and buy only with full in-hand inspection.

Price in Pakistan and PTA Information

No official Pakistan price. Dated references: priceupdate.com.pk listed Rs. 524,400; bestmobile.pk listed Rs. 324,900 — the enormous gap shows how thin and unreliable pricing data is for a phone this rare. China launch pricing (¥11,999–12,999) is the only hard number. Realistically, any unit surfacing in Pakistan will be priced by its individual seller with a large rarity premium. Get a confirmed quote from Zohaan Mobile Gallery and compare against the Mate 60 Pro+ — identical hardware for (usually) far less.

PTA: PTA approval is per-device and per-IMEI. Imported RS units are essentially never PTA-approved. SMS the IMEI to 8484 and confirm "Compliant" before paying — a non-compliant luxury phone is a very expensive Wi-Fi-only device. What is PTA approval? · How to check PTA approval.

Main Advantages and Limitations

Advantages:

• Ceramic body and octagonal design — the most distinctive Huawei ever made
• First of Huawei's own Ultimate Design line — collector significance
• Top-tier Mate 60 hardware: 16GB RAM, 1TB option, best camera set
• 88W + 50W wireless charging, 6.82-inch LTPO OLED, IP68

Limitations:

• Enormous rarity premium over the hardware-identical Mate 60 Pro+
• No Google Play Services — verify apps before spending this much
• 5G unconfirmed; satellite features don't work in Pakistan
• Counterfeit/re-body risk on luxury editions
• Almost no local stock — essentially no price competition

Who Should Consider This Phone?

Good fit: serious collectors and Huawei completists who want the first Ultimate Design flagship and value ceramic craftsmanship above all. Look elsewhere if: you want the hardware — the Mate 60 Pro+ is the same phone in different clothes for far less — or if Google services matter to you.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the price of the Mate 60 RS Ultimate Design in Pakistan?

No official price. Dated trackers range absurdly wide (Rs. 324,900–524,400), reflecting near-zero local stock. Any real unit is priced by its seller — get a confirmed quote.

Is it the same as the Mate 60 Pro+?

Hardware-wise, yes: same Kirin 9000S, 16GB RAM, display, cameras and battery. The differences are the ceramic body, octagonal camera island, colours and branding.

Is it a Porsche Design phone?

No — the Huawei–Porsche Design partnership ended with the Mate 50 RS. This is Huawei's own "Ultimate Design" luxury line.

Does it support 5G?

Not officially confirmed by Huawei — official specs list 4G LTE.

Does it have Google Play Store?

No — HarmonyOS 4.0 with Huawei Mobile Services and AppGallery only.

Do the satellite features work in Pakistan?

No — satellite calls and messaging need a Chinese carrier plan and work only in China.

How do I verify authenticity?

Check the model number and IMEI carefully, compare the ceramic build and octagonal island against official images, and inspect in person — beware of prices that seem too good.

Is it PTA approved?

PTA status is per-device; imported units are essentially never PTA-approved on arrival. Verify via SMS to 8484.

Final Verdict

The Mate 60 RS Ultimate Design is a design triumph and a collector's item — the phone that proved Huawei's luxury line could live without Porsche. As hardware it's a Pro+ in ceramic; as a purchase in Pakistan it's a rarity play for enthusiasts with deep pockets and verified HMS compatibility. For everyone else, the Pro+ delivers the same experience without the museum-piece premium.
