Hello Pinchers!
We finally get a look at the Huawei Mate 40 pro and I will be sharing the details. So today we've got plenty of news to share about the upcoming Huawei Mate 40 and the Mate 40 pro. We've got the design, the specs, the certification and pricing and it's not long until Huawei released the smartphone.
We can see the presence of a large circular cutout for the mate 40 pro's rear cameras while there's no cutout for the led flash in the top left. It's not technically required as it doesn't protrude from the case. There are speaker marks on the top and the bottom of the tpu case which suggests we may see stereo speakers on the mate 40 pro but the lack of any large circular cutouts on the top or the bottom confirm no three and a half mil headphone jack. We do however expect the blaster rodent 950. Also shared with us a few days ago, the screen protectors showing us the main differences in size and display curvature between the mate 40 and the mate 40 pro. If we move on to the mate 40 tpu case, you can see it's similar to the mate 40 pro apart from; it's a little bit smaller and one big changes on the top where you can see a large circular cutout which is no doubt for a headphone jack. We've also had the mate 40 model numbers appear on tenor which not only confirms. We'll be seeing a launch shortly but also that three different models exist.
We've got the oce-an00 model which belongs to the Huawei Mate 40 and this is code named Ocean. We've got the noh-an00 model which is the Huawei P40 pro and this is code named Noah and finally we've got the nop-an00 model which at this stage is causing a lot of confusion. What we know it is going to be the most premium model of the Huawei Mate 40. We're unsure if this is the Mate 40 pro plus or the Huawai Mate 40 rs Porsche design. We also have news from rodent 950 that the Huawei Mate 40 is going to have a 50 megapixel sensor with liquid lens technology. The liquid lens technology was patented by Huawei a few months ago and this allows for faster auto focus and better stabilization. Earlier reports suggested that it may be for the Mate 50 but we're now pretty certain that it ' s going to be making its debut in the Huawei Mate 40. We'll go over shortly now with the recent leaks out of the way. We're going to run through the full specs of the huawei mate 40 series to help you guys decide if this is the phone for you and if you should wait.
So first up we've got the Huawei Mate 40. The Huawei Mate 40 is coming with a 6.4 inch full screen display and a punch hole selfie camera in the top left and this is of course an amoled display. Unlike other smartphones, the base model of the Huawei Mate 40 is still going to support a curved display and the Mate 40 is going to have an in-display fingerprint scanner and a dual punch or camera in a pill shape cutout in the top. Reports are suggesting that this amoled display is going to be a 90 hertz panel. On the rear we've got a circular camera module that houses three cameras and an additional sensor. At this moment in time we're unsure what this sensor is for but it could likely be a timer flight depth sensor.
Rodent 950 is advised a 50 megapixel a 20 megapixel and an 8 megapixel camera but a few other sources are claiming a 108 megapixel primary. The device will of course be powered by the Kirin 1020 system on chip. The spec sheet from pc online suggests it will come with up to 12 gigs of ram and up to 512 gigabytes of expandable storage via the nm card slot. It will of course be running EMUI 11. Out of the box and it's going to pack a 4300 milliamp hour battery with 66 watt fast charge support.
Next up, we've got the Huawei Mate 40 pro. While very similar the Mate 40 pro is going to be larger than the standard Mate 40 with a 6.78 inch display, it's reportedly going to have a 90 or 120 hertz amoled display and as you can see by the renders we've still got the dual punch hole selfie camera and the in-display fingerprint scanner. We've got a physical volume rocker as well as power buttons on the right hand side of the phone which is a welcome change from last year's touch controls and the display looks to be more curved than the standard mate 40. On the top, it looks like the IR blaster is going to be staying on the Mate 40 pro and it's got the same circular camera module but this time with a quad camera setup.
Rodent 950 is advised that we'll be getting a 50 megapixel liquid camera, an 80 megapixel ultra wide a periscope lens and a timer flight depth sensor but personally if on leaks renders are correct then I think we may not be getting the time of flight . The Huawei Mate 40 pro is of course going to be powered up by the Kirin 1020 system on chip and again it's going to come with up to 12 gigs of RAM and up to 512 storage. It's reportedly coming with a 5000 milliamp hour cell with 66 watt fast charge support and it's going to ship with EMUI 11. As we touched on earlier, there's also reports of a Mate 40 pro plus or a Mate 40 Porsche design but with very little information on them.
Right now we're going to save it until something more solid comes to light. We do however think there's only going to be one or the other and that we won't have both. Unfortunately, the same as last year we're also going to have the Huawei Mate 40 range being released without google services so that may put a few of you off. We also don't know at this stage if they plan on a global launch or if they're just going to be keeping it to China as always though. If more information comes to light I'm going to be sharing it with you guys straight away but I'd like to know your thoughts in the comments who out there is waiting for the Mate 40. Does the lack of google services put you off and what version of the mate 40 are you waiting for? Keep Pinching.
