There are only a few days left before the Huawei Mate 10 is officially released, and several renders of the phone have been leaked.

The upcoming line will come in four variants: the Mate 10, the Mate 10 Pro, the Mate 10 Lite and the Mate 10 Porsche Design.

A leaked image posted on the Chinese social networking site Weibo shows the Mate 10 sporting a 6.2-inch display with a 2160 x 1080-pixel resolution and an aspect ratio of 18:9. This may mean a bezel-less display for the Huawei flagship.

The image also lists the Mate 10 as having a 20-megapixel and 23-megapixel dual rear camera setup from camera manufacturing giant Leica.

Similar to the Mate 10 Pro, the Mate 10 will be powered by a Kirin 970 processor.

For some reason, the Mate 10 Pro has been more prone to leaks than the Mate 10. Several reports have already said that the upcoming Mate 10 Pro offering from Huawei comes with a 5.99-inch LCD display with an aspect ratio of 18:9 and a pixel resolution of 1440 x 2880.

The phone has no physical buttons up front; although, there is a fingerprint scanner on the back, just below the dual camera set-up.

Complimenting this are the phone's 6 GB of random-access memory (RAM) and two options for internal storage: 64 GB or 128 GB. The smartphone is powered by a 4,000 mAh battery.

The Huawei Mate 10 Pro has a dual camera setup as well, with one camera powered by a 12-megpixel sensor and an aperture of f/1.6 and the other camera with a 20-megapixel sensor. The cameras also have optical image stabilization. On the smartphone's front-facing set up is its front camera, with an 8-megapixel sensor.

The leaked renders of the Huawei Mate 10 come from renowned leaker Evan Blass.

The Huawei Mate 10 is set to retail for CNY 4,299 or around $650, while the Huawei Mate 10 Pro is rumored to sell for CNY 5,499 or $835.

The Huawei Mate 10 lineup will be officially launched on Monday, Oct. 16.
