As the launch of the date for the Huawei Mate 40 series flagship smartphone nears, more and more details about the phone keep surfacing online. After information about the 3D facial recognition function, we now have details about the speaker.

The latest report indicates that the upcoming Huawei Mate 40 series smartphones will come packed with symmetrical dual speakers to ensure better audio experience. This will be similar to the one offered by the Chinese company in Mate 20 series.

The Mate 20 series smartphones also had support for Dolby Atmos audio but we doubt that the upcoming Mate 40 will have Dolby Atmos because of the on-going US-China trade war. However, the symmetrical dual speakers alone should be enough to provide improved and balanced audio experience.

The development comes just a day after it was reported that the Huawei Mate 40 Pro will come with support for 3D face recognition technology that will be used to authenticate digital payments. It was also revealed that the sensors used for this tech will be placed under the punch-hole cutout on the display.

As per the reports, the Mate 40 Pro will come with a 90Hz refresh rate display and a unique screen resolution of 2640 x 1200 pixels. Under the hood, the device will be powered by the next-generation Kirin chipset which could be manufactured using the 5nm process by TSMC, possibly Kirin 1000.

The highlight of the Mate series smartphones has been the awesome camera features and we expect the same from Huawei for the upcoming Mate 40 series. But to know what exactly the company has up its sleeves for the flagship smartphone, we’ll have to wait for the official launch announcement.

While the company has not yet revealed anything related to the smartphone and its launch date, some reports have indicated that Huawei is likely to launch this flagship lineup somewhere around September or October this year.

Besides the main specs, it will supposedly come with a 6W module with dual 27mm speakers and an extra battery integrated so that it will not deplete your phone’s battery. The new HiFi speaker module will be made of soft material and will feature an ergonomic design for comfortable grip.

The Doogee S95 Pro is expected to have a long battery life since it will come with a 5150mAh battery capacity that together with the power-saving frequency conversion system assures decent performance with low power consumption. Also, the 24W turbo quick charging takes care of fast charging and the extra 3500mAh power module offers another 80% power with 10W turbo quick charge technology.

When talking about a flagship device in any given price category, what someone should expect is good performance. For that reason, the Doogee S95 Pro will come with Helio P90 that sports a pair of powerful Arm Cortex-A75 CPUs and six Cortex-A55 in a single octa-core cluster. Altogether with the performance leading APU2.0, a powerful IMG PowerVR GM 9446GPU and fast LPDDR4X memory controller, you get 50% faster performance than the previous P60/70 SoCs.

Finally, the camera. S95 Pro is going to host Sony’s 48MP sensor for its triple rear camera. The IMX586 sensor ranks at the top of DxOmark list both in video and photo shooting. The top sensor from Sony not only features a high pixel count but also is large at 1/2″ with 1.6μm pixel (via pixel binning).

The release date is yet to be confirmed but it shouldn’t be too far away since all the specs are finalized and it should debut this month as one of the leaked posters reveal.

There is a Snapdragon 430 processor under the hood, 4GB of RAM, and 64GB of storage. The rear camera is a 16MP sensor with LED flash; and for selfies, there is an 8MP shooter up front. There is LTE and dual SIM support and Nokia has thrown in a 3000mAh battery.

The Nokia 6 also sports dual speakers that pump out sound from all directions making ”you feel like you are inside the action”. There is also a front-mounted fingerprint scanner in front that doubles as the home button. Flanking the fingerprint scanner on each side are the back and recent apps capacitive keys. However, from the video below it does look like they are backlit.

The volume rocker and power button are positioned on the right hand side and the SIM tray is on the left.
