In both cases, those are coupled with slim bezels and an extra-wide punch hole for the two selfie cameras. The resulting devices measure in at 158.6 x 72.5 x 8.9mm (Mate 40) and 162.8 x 75.5 x 9mm (Mate 40 Pro) excluding the camera bumps.

Huawei Mate 40 series announcement, launch, chipset

Both Huawei Mate 40 flagships look set to be announced in October or November with the next-generation Kirin 1020 chipset based on the 5-nanometer process. But due to the US government restrictions on Huawei at the moment, rumors are floating around about possible variants with different processors.

The devices are expected to hit shelves in China shortly after their debut ahead of an international launch that includes Europe. There, Huawei has been struggling to compete recently, but the company won't be pulling out of the market anytime soon.

Unfortunately, there is no word on pricing just yet and discounts due to the lack of Google apps and services are highly unlikely.
