Editorial report

Huawei Mate 40 Pro 4G technical sheet

The Huawei Mate 40 Pro 4G suits buyers who put photography and a sharp display first, though at 212 g it is heavier than most phones of its time. Its 6.76-inch OLED display has a pixel density of 456 ppi, among the highest of its era, while the 94.1% screen-to-body ratio is also among the best. The 90 Hz refresh rate is typical for phones launched around the same time.

Its camera stands out for a 1/1.28-inch sensor and 5x optical zoom, both among the best of its time. The f/1.9 aperture is worse than most, while optical image stabilization is included. Video recording reaches 4K at 60 fps, and the setup includes an ultrawide camera. Charging is a strong point: 66 W wired charging is faster than that of most phones of its time, and 50 W wireless charging is among the most powerful. The 4,400 mAh battery capacity is typical.

Overall, design and display, performance, connectivity, and battery stand better than most phones launched around the same time, while the camera is among the best. The Huawei Mate 40 Pro 4G earns a NeoScore of 7.4. It is a well-rounded choice for buyers seeking long optical zoom, a high-density display, and powerful wireless charging, provided a heavier phone and a less favorable aperture are acceptable.
