Huawei’s Mate 80 sales are still behaving like a rare kind of hit: the sort that keeps selling faster after launch instead of fading into the usual post-hype drift. According to RDObservation, cumulative shipments have now moved to roughly 7 million units, with the strongest momentum coming from the Chinese market and weekly sales rising for the third week in a row.
That kind of traction matters because premium phones usually rely on an early burst, then settle into a slower rhythm. Here, the opposite is happening, helped by a product line that appears to have found the right mix of timing, brand strength, and domestic demand.
Huawei Mate 80 weekly sales keep rising
The clearest sign of strength is the week-by-week climb. In week 22 of 2026, the Mate 80 series sold 198,400 units. A week later, that figure increased to 211,400. By week 24, sales had reached about 270,000 smartphones. That is not a gentle uptick; it is a sharp acceleration.
RDObservation put shipments for week 24, covering 8-14 June, at around 6.97 million units overall. With the current pace, the series has already crossed the 7 million mark. For Huawei, that puts the Mate 80 among the company’s most successful smartphones ever, even before the sales curve has flattened.
Huawei price changes could test the run
The obvious risk is pricing. Huawei recently said it would adjust prices on its devices from 1 July, although it did not clarify whether that applies to new models, existing ones, or both. If those changes push real-world prices higher, they could blunt some of the momentum the Mate 80 series is enjoying right now.
That said, a strong domestic flagship can absorb some pain if demand is already locked in. Rival premium phones rarely get this kind of runway unless they are either heavily discounted or riding a brand wave – and Huawei seems to have both the brand and the product working in its favor.
Mate 80 sales outlook
- Current cumulative shipments: about 6.97 million on week 24, now effectively above 7 million
- Week 22 sales: 198,400 units
- Week 23 sales: 211,400 units
- Week 24 sales: about 270,000 units
- Possible next range: 8-9 million units, with 10 million mentioned as an upside case
If the current trend holds, the Mate 80 line could move into the 8-9 million range in the coming months. The more ambitious scenario – getting close to 10 million – depends on Huawei keeping demand hot and avoiding a pricing misstep that makes buyers pause just long enough to shop elsewhere.
