What’s new in Huawei’s new Mate 40 smartphones?
Technology company Huawei has unveiled its new Mate 40 smartphone, which according to Apple will have a better processor than the new iPhone 12.
The company claims the processor is based on “five nanometer” technology, similar to the chip used in the iPhone. Huawei claims to have billions of transistors in the processor, which is 30% more than the Apple A14 processor.
Because of these features, the company claims that its new Mate 40 smartphone is “more powerful” than the iPhone 12.
Huawei, however, said the chip used in the Mate 40 is not, as the chip is exported from the U.S., but the U.S. has imposed trade sanctions on China since September this year.
This means that if the company moves away from these processors called Karen 9000, it will not be able to produce more Mate 40 smartphones after a while.
Currently, only two companies in the world have the option to make a five-meter chip. These include TSMC in Taiwan and Samsung in South Korea.
U.S. sanctions prohibit the Chinese company Huawei from transporting a chip or any semiconductor product. Or any product that uses (American technology and software.)
Huawei said the U.S. decision is based on national security and that the U.S. is not a threat.
The BBC tried to find out how many chips are currently in Huawei, but the company did not answer the question.
Huawei consumer Richard Yu admitted in an online presentation that the company is facing major problems due to the U.S. trade ban.
Huawei in Washington faces several other sanctions. The company has not introduced a smartphone in the US since mid-2019, and many of its phones, including the Play Store, are unable to use Google services.
Nevertheless, Huawei phones are the third best-selling phone in the world and the largest smartphone company in China.
“Huawei is at a high level in China and people are more aware of the brand,” said technology expert Mo Jia.
He claims that the demand for Mate 40 is high in China. However, Huawei’s new phone will be limited during U.S. sanctions due to the absence of other parts, including the Karan chip.
The main elements of the smartphone Huawei Mate 40
The cheapest model on the Huawei Mate 40 is $ 1049. It has a 6.5-inch OLED screen. The price of the three most expensive models is 2,270 and it has a 6.8-inch screen.
The refresh rate of each phone is 90 Hz, which means that it can run on the phone screen at a speed of 90 frames per second. This is more than the new Apple iPhone 12 and Samsung S20 series.
Yu says that this technology improves the screen and that the phone’s battery lasts longer.
You can distribute the models of this smartphone with the help of cameras:
The cheapest model has only one selfie camera and has three rear cameras (wide angle, ultra wide and telephoto).
The Mate 40 Pro has a 3D sensor to unlock the face and its camera is better than the first model.
The fourth camera on the back of the Mate 40 Pro Plus focuses on “super zoom” and can capture better images with less focus than the fifth camera.
The Mate 40 Porsche Design RS has a “thermometer” that can detect local temperature
So far, only the Pro model, priced at $ 1,297, has been unveiled outside of China.
To fix the problem with the wrong phone, this phone has half the “free-form lens” of an extremely wide-angle camera.
Huawei’s new smartphone has introduced an advanced feature that allows you to activate the phone’s screen when you know someone is watching it. According to the company, this reduces battery problems.
Lack of applications
The Karen 9000 chip is powered by FiveG, and its battery life is longer than other phones, Huawei says.
According to the company, the battery in the Mate 40 Pro is 25% longer than the larger battery in the Samsung Note 20 Ultra Plus.
He says that due to the high computing power, two cameras of this phone will be able to create slow video at the same time at a speed of 240 frames per second.
The company claims that these chips can be used to play games better and that in addition to graphics, the lighting is also better.
However, there are many apps available in the Google Play Store, including Call of Duty Mobile, so this phone will not work and can only be accessed from phones licensed to use Google services. Another drawback is that users of many apps cannot buy.
Although Huawei does not have access to the Play Store, these programs can be installed from the Petal app gallery. But some apps aren’t there at all.
Huaywei phones cannot be fitted with EBay, Tesco and other retail apps in the UK. Sky News is also not available for Huawei phones, but the company claims it works.
A BBC spokesman said: (Huawei can politically rely on Google and offer customers opportunities.)
(Huawei has more room for what it does with its app gallery, but it’s commendable.)
If the app is not available, users can add it to Huawei’s “wish list” and start working with them as soon as possible.
However, experts are wondering whether most consumers will be satisfied with the current situation.
Technology expert Ben Wood says the camera design and functionality of Huawei chips are impressive, but despite all the company’s efforts, there are many flaws in the app gallery.
He argues that users should work hard to find these apps in Petal Search. This is great for Huawei fans, but it can hinder the general public.
