Critically acclaimed HUAWEI Mate20 Pro makes Canadian debut Nov. 8

TORONTO, Oct. 25, 2018 /CNW/ - Huawei Canada's Consumer Business Group (CBG) announced today that the highly anticipated and critically acclaimed HUAWEI Mate20 Pro smartphone will be available in Canada beginning Nov. 8, 2018. Consumers will be able to pre-order their Mate 20 Pro today, with selected carriers offering a special gift – a HUAWEI WATCH 2 or a HUAWEI MediaPad T3 10 tablet – for a limited time.

Powered by the world's first 7nm Mobile Artificial Intelligence (AI) chipset Kirin 980, the HUAWEI Mate20 Pro will be available in Black and Twilight.

The Mate 20 Pro will be available from Canada's major carriers:

The HUAWEI Mate20 Pro is powered by a massive 4200mAh battery¹. The new flagship supports the TÜV Safety Certified 40W HUAWEI SuperCharge. That means you can charge your HUAWEI Mate20 Pro quickly and safely. The fast-charging technology can charge the HUAWEI Mate20 Pro to up to 70 percent (or 2940mAh) in 30 minutes.

The HUAWEI Mate20 Pro supports 15W HUAWEI Quick Wireless Charge. Simply place it on a HUAWEI Quick Wireless Charge dock² to enjoy convenient charging at extreme speeds: a 30-minute charge gives the device 30 percent (1300mAh) battery.

For the first time in Canada, there's a smartphone -  the HUAWEI Mate20 Pro – that supports Wireless Reverse Charging, effectively enabling it to act as a power bank for other devices.

Another Canadian first, the HUAWEI Mate20 Pro features a snappy In-Screen Fingerprint Sensor. It works just like the way you expect it to – place your finger on the on-screen prompt for authentication. Once it has done its job, the prompt disappears into the background, as quickly as you lift your finger.

The HUAWEI Mate20 Pro builds on the success of the world's best smartphone camera – the HUAWEI P20 Pro - and adds to it a Leica Ultra Wide Angle Lens. The new Leica Triple Camera supports AI filmmaking, enabling everyday consumers to elevate their video clips into cinematic masterpieces.

The HUAWEI Mate20 Pro – the ultimate performance device for Canada's most demanding and discerning consumers. Offering a suite of features not found anywhere else, the HUAWEI Mate20 Pro sets a new standard in the smartphone category.
