On the same Kirin 990 platform, but without 5G support
In the database of the Chinese regulator TENAA, a new Huawei smartphone was lit up … which is like two drops of water similar to the Huawei P40. Apparently, the company has decided to release a more affordable version of the model, which will most likely be called Huawei P40 4G – based on certification documents, the device does not support 5G.
The cheap Huawei P40 is on its way.
It turns out that Huawei managed to stock up not only with Kirin 990 5G single-chip systems but also with the usual Kirin 990 with an LTE modem – this version is present in the line. It differs not only in the modem but also in the CPU and NPU frequencies – they are slightly lower than that of the Kirin 990 5G.
Since Huawei P40 4G is already certified, the premiere can be expected soon. And the cost of such a model will definitely be lower than that of a regular P40 with 5G support.
