Huawei has just announced the new and advanced Huawei Mate 40 Series, the latest revolutionary flagship smartphones that empower users to leap further ahead. The new Mate 40 Series reinforces Huawei’s dedication to innovation and its unrelenting determination to create the best Mate ever.
Huawei has been producing 10 outstanding generations of the Mate series phones for the past 8 years. With the Mate Series DNA at its core, the latest Mate 40 smartphones will reach new heights with the best technology in the industry.
The Mate 40 series has an 88° Horizon Curvature Display which brings elegance and an immersive viewing experience for users. While this may concern a lot of users who prefer flat displays to avoid accidental touches on the sides, Huawei assures its software will prevent these mishaps. The new design also eliminates the physical volume control buttons. Instead, Huawei has added a virtual volume control which can be assigned on either side of the screen. The camera module at the back are now arranged in a circular shape called the Space Ring.
The Huawei Mate 40 and Huawei Mate 40 Pro are available in Black and White, as well as an enchanting Mystic Silver, a finish with a colour-shifting effect that evokes the mysteries of the unseen. There are also two vegan leather variants, Yellow and Green. On the other hand, the Huawei Mate 40 Pro+ features an exquisite nano-tech ceramic back panel available in two iconic colours: Ceramic White and Ceramic Black.
Powering the best Mate ever, the Kirin 9000 Series is fully equipped for 5G, capable of handling intensive computations and multi-tasking operations with ease. Embedded in the Huawei Mate 40 Pro and Mate 40 Pro+, the Kirin 9000 is the most sophisticated 5nm 5G SoC available, delivering
vastly improved performance and power efficiency over its predecessor. For the first time ever, the flagship 5G SoC has more than 15.3 billion transistors 1 , making it the densest and most full-featured 5G SoC to date. The powerful CPU features a three-level power efficiency architecture with cores running at clock frequencies of up to 3.13GHz. Also integrated into the SoC is a 24-core Mali-G78 GPU, as well as an innovative NPU featuring two big cores and one tiny core, taking on-device AI to a new level.
