The Huawei Mate 40 Pro has one 6,76 inch OLED screen which has analysis 2772 × 1344 pixels and thus achieves density in PPI 456. We do not yet know if the screen will support an increased refresh rate.
What is certain, however, is that the frame will be strongly curved backwards at the edges, so as to give the impression of a screen without frames, especially when we see the device from the front. Below the screen will be the fingerprint scanner, which will unlock the smartphone quickly and reliably.
New Kirin 9000 SoC at 5nm and with 5G modem
The Huawei HiSilicon Kirin 9000 is the latest news high-end SoC made by TSMC before the US embargo on Huawei went into effect. The chip has a total of eight cores, four of which use architecture ARM Cortex-A55 and operate at maximum speed at 2,04Ghz.
In addition, there are three cores that use the architecture ARM Cortex-A77 and offer a maximum clock rate at 2,54Ghz. Huawei also has a fourth core Cortex-A77 with a maximum clock speed of at least 3,13Ghz, so that the overall package offers something more than sufficient performance, which will even outperform the current Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 Plus with similar clock speeds.
In addition to the fast cores in the CPU, the chip also has the GPU ARM Mali-G78 for graphics but also for data processing of artificial intelligence, but also a built-in 5G modem. It Kirin 9000 It is also the first Huawei SoC to be built on a 5nm scale, offering an even smaller structure width than its predecessor.
Huawei will bring it Mate 40 Pro in Europe only in one version, which will have RAM 8GB and 256 GB of internal storage flash memory based on UFS 3.1, which however will not be expandable using a microSD card slot.
In China, however, there will be variations of the device with up to 12 GB RAM. In addition, other special editions are expected to be released, including a named model Mate 40 RS and a “Pro+", Which will differ mainly in terms of features and equipment of the camera.
Extremely powerful triple camera system with lenses from Leica
Speaking of cameras, the Huawei Mate 40 Pro has an extremely powerful suite of three cameras, which are optimized in conjunction with Leica. In addition, a new autofocus system is integrated, which combines laser autofocus with a new type of additional camera sensor, which also acts as a kind of autofocus assistant.
However, it is not yet clear exactly how this new system works, which will combine both optical and laser autofocus. In addition to the individual LED flash, there will also be a color temperature sensor, which will help the Mate 40 Pro reproduce realistic colors.
50 megapixel for main camera, and XNUMXD gesture control on the front
The three cameras of this large round unit that we see on the back of the device, will consist of a sensor in 50 MP with diaphragm F / 1,9 and optical image stabilization (OIS), a sensor in 20 MP for ultra-wide aperture shots F / 1.8 and one zoom meeting camera with a resolution of 12 MP and a maximum aperture size of F / 3.4.
Among other things, this camera system should be able to record 8K video and will offer 5x optical zoom.
Its front unit Camera selfie of Mate 40 Pro is placed under a relatively large notchin pill form on the front of the device, and will be equipped with a sensor on 13MP with diaphragm F / 2.4, to which Huawei has added one 3D sensor sideways.
In combination, this system should allow the smartphone to operate with gestures (gestures), similar to those already known from other devices. All the user has to do is move his hand on the screen to interact with the phone.
Fast charging function with 65 watts
Its version Huawei Mate 40 Pro intended for Europe will have a battery in 4400mAh. Huawei will provide the package with a new power charger SuperCharge which can be connected to the device via a port USB Type-C (3.1 Gen 1) and will provide maximum charging power up to 65 watts.
This will allow the smartphone to charge extremely quickly, so that it can fully operate again in less than an hour. Wireless charging is also supported, including the possibility of reverse charging to charge other wireless accessories such as FreeBuds of Huawei.
Android 10 without Google applications and services
Other features of the device include a NanoMemory slot for its special memory cards Huawei, support at Bluetooth 5.2, NFC and WiFi 6. The smartphone has width 75,5 mm, length 162,9 mm and thickness 9,1 mmwhile weighing 212 gr of.
Due to the huge problems that Huawei is facing as a result of US sanctions, the Mate 40 Pro still works with Android 10 and uses the company's current interface - the EMUI 11.x. But instead of the usual services and applications Google, only services will be available on this device Huawei Mobile Services (HMS).
In terms of colors, in Europe, the Huawei will offer the new Mate 40 Pro only in black and silver color, but in China it is definitely expected to be released in other colors.
We do not yet have some information about the prices and availability of the device.
