Huawei's Mate flagship is getting an update with a scheduled launch for the Mate 40 series on October 22. It's the latest Huawei device to launch without access to the Google Play Store and Google Mobile Services. It also might be the last Huawei handset to be powered by a Kirin processor. US trade restrictions and bans have severely affected the Android experience on these handsets. But Huawei has been steadily developing its AppGallery to make up for that. It might not be enough for some users who are expecting the full access to Android and Google apps.
The company hasn't revealed much beyond the tagline "Leap Further Ahead." So, we're going to have to wait and see what Huawei is cooking up to try and convince smartphone buyers to consider their new flagship.
