HUAWEI Mate 90 Price & Where to Buy Worldwide: Variable Aperture Camera at the Entry Price (2026)
The HUAWEI Mate 90 is the entry point to the Mate 90 series, and it keeps the feature that matters most: the physical 10-stop variable aperture from F1.4 to F4.0 on the main camera, with all three rear cameras using RYYB sensors. At 217 g it is the lightest phone in the Mate 90 range. The main trade-offs versus the Pro are 66W wired charging instead of 100W and a standard OLED panel rather than a dual-layer one. It runs HarmonyOS 7.0 with English support and ships worldwide with full tracking.

What is the physical variable aperture?
The main camera has an actual iris diaphragm with 10 adjustable stops, from F1.4 to F4.0. At F1.4 the aperture is wide open, gathering maximum light and producing natural lens-based shallow depth of field. At F4.0 it narrows for a deep-focus plane on architecture and landscapes. This is a physical mechanism, not a software effect, and it is shared across every Mate 90 model.
What is RYYB?
RYYB is Huawei’s own colour filter arrangement for camera sensors, replacing the green pixels in a standard Bayer array with yellow. Yellow transmits more light than green, so each pixel captures more light, which helps in low-light conditions. All three rear cameras on the Mate 90 use RYYB sensors.
