Detailed Huawei Mate 40 Pro massive leak describes 12 MP 5x zoom cam, 6.76" display

19 October 2020
No periscope as some earlier leaks suggested. Also, the 50 MP main cam will be aided by a Laser AF + depth sensor hybrid.

That punch hole always bothers me, and i see no difference between this and a notch

    If they are going to put bezel on top and bottom, why not make that top bezel slightly bigger to get rid of the dual punch hole forever?

      As someone else pointed out, if you look REAL close on that too left sensor, that is a Periscope lens. But a 20MP wide angle sensor? That's a heck of a downgrade from the Mate 30 Pro...

      Other than that, if it's 90Hz on basically 1080p with that battery, I'm not interested. Gonna wait for the Pro+ to see if that sparks my interest. Otherwise, the ROG phone 3 gets my money (before you @ me, I don't care THAT much about the camera despite what I said above this paragraph).

        I love how the back of this render looks like. A circle looks good, better in my opinion than a square one.

          Curved displays are bad but Waterfall displays are the worst thing that can happen to a phone.

            Shui8, 19 Oct 2020Agreed. Look minimalistic yet elegant. Way better looks tha... moreToo bad it'll most likely remain in its own country for the most part, unlike they find a way to get GMS on it

              Shui8, 19 Oct 2020Agreed. Look minimalistic yet elegant. Way better looks tha... moreYes, I see a slight resemblance as well, and maybe Huawei intended it to be that way as they have had a partnership with Leica in the past. The white color also highlights the curved screen beautifully and while I'll go for the black, the white looks really good on this phone. IMO this is how flagship phones must look like

                I like the design. The camera layout certainly looks miles better than the rumored pentagon design.

                Personally, I prefer the P-series though, but still looking forward to see how this Mate turns out.

                    Anonymous, 19 Oct 2020I am afraid this is the uw from p30 proUnlikely. Its a whole new sensor, and its big. The 20mp maybe a fixed pixel binned from 80mp that rumored earlier.

                      Don't care about no GMS, I'm open minded enough to know there are alternatives and not to just say 'no' like an idiot. I do just wish they hadn't used another huge pill punch hole. That thing is distracting.

                        no GApps, too big, hefty bezels, rounded display - nope

                          Nothing New, 19 Oct 2020Yeah that is what i thought but it isn't confirmed so ... moreIt's rumored in Chinese media to be a new Sony imx 718 sensor but not much detail on it

                            Nothing New, 19 Oct 2020Specs looks but the thing that got my interest is 20MP ult... moreOther old generations had 20MP camera, but it is 1/2.8" or 1/2.9".

                            With all this USA x China fight, some cuts may be done.
                            Huawei has lost money this year.

                                      L.O.R.D, 19 Oct 2020Now that's called a design! So much better than the S2... moreAgreed. Look minimalistic yet elegant. Way better looks than last Mate 30.

                                      Somehow the white color on this Mate 40 reminds me of a Leica TL2 camera.

                                        Very nice design I don't mind bezels that much but that screen is to big my maximum size is 6.2 I don't want larger
