A couple of days ago, Huawei had launched a new smartphone under its Mate 40 lineup, dubbed as Huawei Mate 40E Pro. Today, the device officially goes on sale in the company’s home market China.

The Huawei Mate 40E Pro will be available for purchase through Huawei Mall in China. The phone is priced at 6,499 yuan, which is approximately $1,029, for the 8GB RAM and 256GB internal storage model.

Coming to the specs, the smartphone features a 7.76-inch OLED Full HD+ display with a screen resolution of 2772 x 1344 pixels, DCI-P3 wide color gamut, 90Hz refresh rate, and 240Hz touch sampling rate. It has a pill-shaped cutout in the top-left corner of the screen.

Under the hood, the device is powered by the company’s own Huawei HiSilicon Kirin 9000L chipset. It is manufactured using the 5nm process node and includes one Cortex-A77 at 3.13GHz, two Cortex-A77 at 2.54GHz, and three Cortex-A55 at 2.05GHz.

In the camera department, the smartphone features a triple-camera setup on the back that includes a 50-megapixel super-sensing wide-angle lens with f/1.9 aperture, a 20-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens with f/1.8 aperture, and a 12-megapixel telephoto lens with f/3.4 aperture. On the front side, the device has a 13-megapixel super-sensing wide-angle camera and a 3D depth camera.

The Huawei Mate 40E Pro 5G is running the company’s own HarmonyOS 2.0 operating system with several new smart features for an inter-connected devices user experience. It is powered by a 4,400mAh battery with support for 66W super-fast charging.

Huawei has announced a few new products at the Mobile World Congress, including new laptops in the MateBook lineup. Along with that, the company has also launched a smartphone under the Mate lineup in China, dubbed Huawei Mate 40E Pro 5G.

It is being offered in three color options — Black, White, and Mithril. The device packs 8GB RAM and 256GB of internal storage and costs 6,700 yuan, which is approximately $1,062.

The smartphone features a 7.76-inch OLED Full HD+ display with a screen resolution of 2772 x 1344 pixels, DCI-P3 wide color gamut, 90Hz refresh rate, and 240Hz touch sampling rate. It has a pill-shaped cutout in the top-left corner of the screen.

Huawei may launch Mate 40E Pro with Kirin 990 5G as Kirin 9000 SoC stock runs dry

Huawei is apparently gearing up to launch another new device within its flagship Mate 40 lineup from last year. A new report has suggested that the new Mate 40 series model will feature 5G networking and could be the sixth entry in the family.

The Chinese tech giant had recently obtained a network access license from the Chinese Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. This license was for a new smartphone with a model number of “NOH-AN50,” which hints that it belongs to the Mate 40 flagship family. It was initially assumed to be a new Mate 40 Pro model that could’ve been branded as a Collector’s Edition and feature the Kirin 9000 5G chipset. But now, tipster @魔法科技君 believes that the upcoming handset in question is the Mate 40E Pro that will be powered by a Kirin 990 5G SoC.

For those unaware, the company had previously launched the Mate 40E in a 4G and 5G variant. Now, it is apparently gearing up to launch a new Pro variant as well that supports 5G networking. While the Mate 40E had featured a Kirin 990E processor, the Pro variant will supposedly sport the Kirin 990 5G. However, it seems odd that the brand plans to release a new smartphone that features a dated flagship processor that was announced back in 2019.

In other words, Huawei might have reserves of its Kirin 9000 series running low or they could possibly even be completely dry. This means that any future smartphones from the brand might likely be unable to feature its latest and greatest chipset. Previous estimates had indicated that the company had managed to acquire just 10 million units of Kirin 9000 chips before US sanctions cut off the company from its primary chip supplier TSMC. Although, this is still just an unconfirmed report, so take it with a pinch of salt for now.
