According to a new report, Huawei will release the line of Huawei Mate 40 smartphones, as originally planned, in October 2020.
The source is a Chinese insider, who writes that despite the very complicated relations between the US and China, as well as the ongoing pandemic of the coronavirus, the new flagship of Huawei will not give up.
Huawei plans to sell 8 million units of the upcoming Mate 40 this year
In addition, the source confirmed that the Huawei Mate 40 will receive the latest SoC, which will be produced according to the standards of the 5-nanometer process. Presumably, we are talking about Kirin 1020 or Kirin 1000.
Also, the same source claims that in the fourth quarter of this year, Huawei plans to put on the market about 8 million new smartphones of the Huawei Mate 40 line.
It is worth to mention that in September last year, Huawei has officially introduced the Mate 30 and Mate 30 Pro smartphones with great specs and good cameras. Here is a reminder of their specifications.
