Huawei Mate 40 series may feature 90Hz display and not 120Hz as reported earlier

Huawei is going through bad times but the company is reported to be on schedule to launch its next flagship smartphones, the Mate 40 series in October. It is also expected to unveil Mate Watch running HarmonyOS at the same event. Now, the phone’s display specs have been tipped by a leaker going by the name @RODENT950 on Twitter.

The Huawei Mate 40 series is expected to be the world’s first Android smartphones to be powered by a 5nm chip. Apart from these handsets, we might only see Apple iPhone 12 series with a similar chipset this year. The SoC in question is said to be HiSilicon Kirin 1000, which was previously reported to be Kirin 1020.

Now, as per the new tip, the Mate 40 series may feature a similar display like the one found on P40 Pro series. That means it will have a panel with 1200 x 2640 pixels and 90Hz refresh rate. But this goes against another report, which suggested the handset to come with 120Hz refresh rate. Anyway, we would like you to take this piece of information with a pinch of salt.

Further, as per previous leaks and reports, the upcoming Huawei Mate 40 series will feature FreeForm lens paired with 9P camera module for better sharpness and Side-Touch camera interface to make use of the curved display.
