Today, a Weibo blogger revealed the live images of Huawei Mate 40 and Mate 40 Pro’s camera module. According to the photos, the Huawei Mate 40 series uses an Oreo-shaped circular back camera module.
The camera module is covered with a protective film, so we can’t see the lens directly. The protective film consists of four holes, which directly indicate that the phone uses a quad-camera setup. According to our observations, this new protective film will prevent the camera bump from being scratched in daily life without affecting the image quality.
The Huawei Mate 40 Pro will have the same primary camera and ToF sensors used in the Huawei P40 Pro. The camera setup will also include a telephoto lens that supports 5x optical zoom and 55x digital zoom. It will also use a new cinema lens with a large 9P Dali sensor.
The phone is also expected to come with the Huawei Kirin 1000 chipset. However, some reports suggest that this will be the last phone from Huawei to feature the Kirin chipset. The chipset will be based on a 5nm manufacturing process. A new waterfall display and dual front camera setup have also been confirmed to be featured on the phone.
Currently, the Huawei Mate 40 series is expected to launch in the fall of 2020.
