Could it be that the Mate 40 family will be able...

Days before the launch, we met with a group of friends and tech experts from various media (to have a different opinion) to talk about the expectations of the launch of the Huawei Mate 40 series. Here are all the details about it (in case of problems viewing the video, click here).

As you can see in the previous video, more than specifications, the situation in which the western market will receive these smartphones was discussed, which, despite being great samples of what a good research team can do. and development (R&D), are faced with a series of challenges after such a novel in which Huawei has entered as a brand with some governments.

Now, let’s not forget that depending on the results of the next elections in the United States, many things can change and the veto at the Google Services level may be lifted (which is one of the main concerns that consumers have when thinking about buying a Huawei mobile currently).

But, assuming that we continue as we are (with the re-election of the current US president) and the restrictions on Huawei as a brand continue, the big question is: How many and which of the terminals of the Mate 40 family will arrive in these parts?

Not so much Porsche Design or Plus and much more Mate 40 lite!

From the outset we can rule out the arrival of the Mate 40 Porsche Design and the Mate 40 Pro + which, traditionally, has an exorbitant cost due to the dollar exchange rate and how luxurious these smartphones turn out to be. Instead, we will surely see the Mate 40 lite that, in many markets, tends to be the brand’s workhorse that moves sales in the not-so-affluent ranges of the market.

Mate 40 and Mate 40 Pro for the most daring!

Undoubtedly, the brand has fans who put their hand into the denim (pocket) and break the marranito (take out of their savings) if necessary in order to have the latest and most advanced of the brand regardless of the limitations imposed by the lack of Google Services (which forces them to make adventures to install applications, update them and makes them unable to count on some functionalities in streaming services like Netflix) they are willing to use AppGallery and get by in one way or another .

These fans are excited about the idea of ​​5G and of acquiring a future-proof mobile that, according to the brand, could be in force until said connectivity option reaches Colombia and other Latin American countries. Also, some may want to play up the power of the 5-nanometer Kirin 9000 and 9000E and the computational photography capabilities of the Cine Ultra Vision camera system.

Something that the brand has learned is that some users prefer physical buttons to virtual ones when referring to an interface as important as raising or lowering the volume, for the same reason, in the Mate 40 series there are two options.

Finally, it is worth going into the details of the features included in the Mate 40 family phones that, quite possibly, will reach Colombia and other Latin American countries with Huawei Services and the # Emui11 customization layer.
