Huawei Pura 90 series has just stepped onto the launch stage, showing its full glory, and we are already hearing footsteps of the next 2026 flagship – the Mate 90 series that will bring major AI features and Celia capabilities to the table.
Pura 90 smartphones come out of the box with HarmonyOS 6.1. Unlike the x.0 versions, the 6.1 build brings interactive and subtle changes to devices that can enhance the user experience to some extent.
Meanwhile, the Weibo tipster @SuperDimensional now reveals that the Huawei Mate 90 series will pre-install HarmonyOS 7.0 (obviously) and will unlock more real, smarter, and safer AI features.
These new AI additions will likely appear in the Celia app. Simply put, the company is seemingly further tailoring the Celia virtual assistant to boost the Mate 90 series efficiency and make it a perfect AI companion for users.
Perhaps the Mate 90 smartphones will debut in the market as Huawei’s best AI creations to date. Though the tipster didn’t mention any other info on this topic.
Huawei Pura 90 smartphones have welcomed the Celia AI companion for the first time. But as per the latest leak, the 2026 Mate models will further refine this assistant, leading to a breakthrough in AI phone experience.
In the current landscape, Celia AI companion supports various features, making day-to-day tasks easier and more efficient for users. From a very special reading assistant to a separate photo-editing companion, Celia has now got everything to help you.
