It looks the same as the Gold Dragon version but weighs about 1 kg. Cost is over $100,000 (€95,890/INR8,539,350), and Caviar told us "it was specially made as one piece limited edition for the extra-rich client from the US," which is why it"s not listed on their website.

The 24k gold model, launched with a starting price of $14,500 (€13,905/INR1,238,205), is now available with a base price of $17,340 (€16,630/INR1,480,725). Caviar will make 88 units of these since 88 is considered a lucky number in Chinese culture.

The standard Mate XT Ultimate launched by Huawei weighs about 300 g and starts at CNY19,999 ($2,740/€2,630/INR233,925). It"s currently China-exclusive, but an international launch is slated for Q1 2025.
