Huawei Mate 40

If you’re on the lookout for the best possible smartphone money can buy, there are three brands that you will definitely consider — Apple, Samsung, and Huawei. Of course, you can’t convince an Apple fan to buy an Android phone and vice versa, so if you were looking for an Android phone that offered you top notch performance, stunning camera results, and beautiful displays, both Samsung and Huawei deliver the goods. But that was until last year, when the US-China trade war played havoc with Huawei’s business plans and security scandals led to the Chinese electronics giant getting locked out of accessing the Google Play Store and in the process, all GMS (Google Mobile Services). This definitely threw a spanner in the works for Huawei as a lot of smartphone buyers will have second thoughts about not getting access to their favorite apps. But for those who swear by Huawei, the company has lined up one of its two major flagship launches for the year — the Huawei Mate 40 is here. The Mate 40 sports a 6.6-inch AMOLED display that has a resolution of 1176 x 2400 pixels. Huawei continues the tradition of equipping its own flagship grade chipset in the Mate series by installing a Kirin 990 SoC inside the Mate 40. The device packs 8GB RAM and 256GB of storage, which can be doubled if you use the memory card slot. On the back, you get a stellar 48MP + 40MP + 8MP + 5MP quad sensor setup while on the front, the phone sports a 32MP + 2MP dual camera. Battery features are impressive as expected with the fuel cell not only offering a capacity of 4700mAh but also supporting 40W fast charging. The popular Huawei mobile phone include the Huawei Mate 40 RS Porsche Edition, Huawei Mate 40E, and Huawei Mate 40 Pro.
