It is worth mentioning that earlier this month, Huawei officially unveiled its new Huawei Mate 40E smartphone; which will join the Mate 40, Mate 40 Pro, Mate 40 Pro + and Mate 40 RS Porsche Design models.
The new Mate 40E smartphone has almost the
same characteristics as the standard version of the Mate 40. The main
difference is the Kirin 990E 5G SoC used, while the Mate 40 is equipped with
the Kirin 9000E SoC. That is, this is the affordable version of the Huawei Mate
40, which is available with 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of flash storage for US$ 700
and with 8/256 GB of storage for US$ 780. Acceptance of pre-orders has already
begun, and sales in China started on March 18th.
The smartphone is equipped with a 6.5-inch
screen with a resolution of 2376 x 1080 pixels; which supports an image refresh
rate of 90 Hz and a polling rate of the touch layer of 240 Hz. It has Bluetooth
5.2, GSM, HSPA, LTE, 5G, WiFi 6+ and NFC modules. The main camera uses image
sensors with a resolution of 64, 16 and 8 megapixels; the front camera is 13
megapixel. The 4200 mAh battery supports 40-watt charging.
It is also reported that the affordable
version of Huawei P50 will be equipped with a Kirin 9000L SoC; which is
produced according to Samsung’s EUV 5nm process technology. The overall design
is similar to the Kirin 9000 and Kirin 9000E; but the Kirin 9000L has
relatively simpler GPUs and NPUs. At the same time, Huawei P50 Pro and P50 Pro
+ will receive Kirin 9000E and Kirin 9000, respectively.
