Huawei Enjoy 100 Pro Leak 2026: 8,000mAh, Kirin 8, 4 Colors - Memeburn

TL;DR

- The Enjoy 100 Pro may get a 6.84-inch 1.5K LTPS screen, a Kirin 8 chip and an 8,000mAh-plus battery.

- Leaked Pro colors are Obsidian Black, Snow White, Sand Gold and Azure Ocean.

- LTPS usually means LCD, which could be a step down from the Enjoy 90 Pro Max's OLED screen.

- Huawei reportedly plans a carrier-only "mobile AI" edition to push sales through phone stores.

- The Enjoy 100 series could launch around November, with a 10,000mAh Huawei phone due next year.

Huawei’s next budget phone, the Enjoy 100 Pro, just leaked with a battery above 8,000mAh, a Kirin 8-series chip and four new colors, according to well-known Weibo tipster Digital Chat Station. The Enjoy line is how Huawei sells phones to millions of price-conscious buyers in China, and this leak shows that huge batteries have become a budget feature, while screens may be where costs get cut. Here’s what the leak says, what we think it means, and what to expect before launch.

Huawei Enjoy 100 Pro Leak: What We Know So Far

Huawei hasn’t confirmed any of this. Digital Chat Station has a strong record on Chinese phone leaks, but leaked specs can still change before launch, especially battery figures, which are often rounded up or down.

The Battery: 8,000mAh Is Now a Budget Feature

The headline number is a battery above 8,000mAh. mAh (milliamp-hours) measures how much charge a battery holds. For context, Apple’s iPhone 18 Pro Max carries about 5,391mAh.

That’s not a shock for Huawei’s budget line. The Enjoy 90 Pro Max, launched in March, already packs an 8,500mAh silicon-carbon battery and is rated for up to 28 hours of video playback. A silicon-carbon battery mixes silicon into the anode, one side of the battery, so it can store more energy in the same space. That’s the technology letting phone makers cram 8,000mAh-plus into phones that are still about 8mm thick.

Huawei isn’t alone. Chinese brands are in an all-out battery race. Vivo’s Y600s Pro has a 10,200mAh battery, and Honor’s X9e Pro packs 11,000mAh for under $300. Earlier rumors even pointed to a 9,000mAh to 10,000mAh cell for the Enjoy 100 family.

Here’s our read. “Above 8,000mAh” for the Pro is a safe, middle-of-the-pack number in late 2026. The more interesting nugget is that the same tipster says Huawei is working on a 10,000mAh phone for next year. If that lands in an Enjoy model, Huawei would be pushing the race further at the cheap end, where battery life sells phones better than cameras do.

What we don’t know yet is charging speed. The Enjoy 90 Pro Max used 40W wired charging, which takes a while to fill a cell this big. We’d like to see Huawei move to at least 66W on the Enjoy 100 Pro, but there’s no sign of that in the leak.

The Screen: Same Size, Possibly a Downgrade

The Enjoy 100 Pro reportedly uses a 6.84-inch flat screen with 1.5K resolution, the same size as the Enjoy 90 Pro Max. 1.5K sits between Full HD and 2K, about 2,700 pixels tall on a phone this size, so text should look sharp.

The detail that caught our eye is LTPS. LTPS (low-temperature polysilicon) is a type of screen backplane, the layer of tiny switches that controls each pixel. In Chinese phone leaks, “LTPS” on its own almost always means an LCD panel, not OLED.

That would be a real change. The Enjoy 90 Pro Max uses an OLED screen with 4,000 nits peak brightness and 2,160Hz PWM dimming. OLED screens light each pixel individually, so blacks look deeper, and contrast is stronger. LCDs use a backlight, so they’re cheaper to make but usually look a little flatter.

Why would Huawei step back? We think cost is the most likely answer. Memory chip prices have surged in 2026 as AI data centers buy up supply, and that pressure hits budget phones hardest. Saving money on the screen is one way to keep the price in check while still headlining a giant battery.

To be fair, there’s an upside for some buyers. Good LCDs don’t flicker the way many OLEDs do at low brightness, which some people with sensitive eyes prefer. And the Pro and Pro Max may split here, with OLED staying on the pricier Max.

The Chip: A cSeries Processor

The leak points to a Kirin 8-series chip. That’s Huawei’s mid-range family, made by its HiSilicon unit. The Enjoy 90 Pro Max uses the Kirin 8000, a 7nm octa-core chip, and the Nova 14 line introduced the newer Kirin 8020.

The bigger story here is supply. Huawei used to launch two Enjoy series a year, one in spring and one in fall. From around 2023, it cut back to one, largely because U.S. sanctions limited its access to 5G chips and it needed its own supply of Kirin processors. Now that Huawei’s own 5G Kirin production has ramped up, it’s returning to the twice-a-year schedule, which is why the Enjoy 100 series is arriving just months after the Enjoy 90.

For you, that means one thing: a budget Huawei with 5G and Huawei’s own chip, with no Qualcomm or MediaTek inside. Earlier this year, Huawei reportedly started replacing Snapdragon chips in its cheapest phones with its own silicon.

Four Colors for the Pro, Three for the Standard Model

The Pro model is tipped in four colors:

- Obsidian Black

- Snow White

- Sand Gold

- Azure Ocean

A lower-end model, likely the standard Enjoy 100, reportedly comes in Phantom Black, Glacier White and Cloud Blue.

The color names are more than marketing. Gold and blue tones have sold well for Huawei’s budget phones, which are often bought as gifts for parents or as second phones. The split also confirms there will be at least two models, Pro and standard, with an Enjoy 100 Pro Max expected as well. Its codename is reportedly “Ip Man,” after the martial arts master famous for teaching Wing Chun.

The Carrier “Mobile AI” Edition Is the Part to Watch

The leak also says Huawei plans to sell the Enjoy 100 series through carrier channels, including a customized “mobile AI” edition, to boost volume.

Carriers like China Mobile, China Unicom and China Telecom run huge store networks across smaller Chinese cities, and they often sell phones bundled with data plans. A carrier edition usually comes with the carrier’s own apps or services preinstalled. Our read is that the “mobile AI” label points to China Mobile, which has been pushing AI assistants and AI phone plans to its subscribers.

That’s smart business for both sides. Huawei gets cheap distribution in towns where it doesn’t have flagship stores. The carrier gets an affordable phone it can market as an “AI phone.” The catch for buyers is that carrier editions sometimes carry extra preloaded apps, so check what’s included before you sign up.

It also fits Huawei’s broader push to cover every price point. The company is reportedly rebuilding new budget sub-brands called “Starlight” to win back the younger buyers it lost when it sold Honor.

Enjoy 100 Pro vs Enjoy 90 Pro Max

The Enjoy 90 Pro Max became a bestseller in the CNY 1,000 to 2,000 (about $150 to $300) bracket on China’s JD.com. We expect the Enjoy 100 Pro to stay inside that range, since a 6.84-inch screen and an 8,000mAh battery are exactly what that buyer wants.

When Will the Huawei Enjoy 100 Pro Launch?

Huawei hasn’t announced a date. Earlier leaks pointed to the Enjoy 100 series debuting around November, with the Pro Max expected near the end of the year. A certification listing in China, usually TENAA or 3C, would be the next sign that launch is close.

Like most Enjoy phones, it’s very likely to be China-only. Huawei sometimes rebrands Enjoy models for other markets, as it did when the Enjoy 90 Pro Max became the Nova 15 Max abroad, but there’s nothing official yet.

The Enjoy 100 Pro leak tells you where budget phones are heading in 2026. Battery capacity is the selling point everyone competes on, and the compromises are moving to places you won’t see on the box, like the screen type. If Huawei keeps an 8,000mAh-plus battery, adds faster charging, and holds the price under $300, the Enjoy 100 Pro will sell well regardless of whether the panel is LCD or OLED. If it charges more for a weaker screen, buyers who loved the Enjoy 90 Pro Max will notice.

FAQs

What is Huawei’s wide-screen phone, and will the Enjoy series get one?

Huawei’s wide, shorter phones sold 180,000 units in a day, and Oppo and Honor now want in too. The same tipster says Huawei will try a wide-screen candybar in its Nova line before the Enjoy series.

How does Huawei’s flagship compare with its budget phones?

The gap is mostly cameras and chips. The Huawei Mate 90 is basically last year’s Pro with a bigger battery, while Enjoy phones focus on battery and screen size for a fraction of the price.

Can you buy Huawei phones outside China?

Some, yes. Huawei sells Nova and Mate models in Asia, the Middle East and Europe, often under new names. The Nova 16s Pro is going global, though without Google’s apps.

Which budget phones have the biggest batteries in 2026?

Several Chinese budget phones now reach 8,000mAh to 11,000mAh. The Vivo Y600i packs 8,000mAh and IP69 for $295, one of the cheapest phones to pair a huge cell with strong water protection.

Is a 10,000mAh phone heavy?

Not as much as you’d think. Silicon-carbon cells keep most 10,000mAh phones near 8mm thick and around 220g to 230g.
