Huawei's Mate 20 with 4 cameras exceeds pre-order expectations

So, I still believe this is the first "Mate" lineup in Canada ... and it looks like Canada is really excited too.


Recently, Huawei announced the Mate 20 and that they'll bring it to Canada.  Same triple camera as the P20 Pro and bigger and Qi!!

Looks like the pre-order of the phone is going well as they've exceeded the company's own expectations.  Check out their press release:


HUAWEI Mate 20 Pro exceeds all Canadian pre-order expectations

TORONTO, ON — NOVEMBER 6, 2018—Huawei Canada’s Consumer Business Group today announced that the Mate 20 Pro, available from all major Canadian carriers on Nov. 8, is shaping up to be the best-selling smartphone in the company’s Canadian history.

After being announced at a launch event in London, UK in mid-October, the Mate 20 Pro has earned rave reviews, driving pre-orders to levels more than 22 per cent above this year’s very successful P20 Pro debut.

“Canadians are embracing the Mate 20 Pro and its multiple advanced features,” said Radek Krasny, Director of Marketing for Huawei Canada’s Consumer Business Group. “With its massive 4200mAh battery and its unique reverse-charging capabilities, in-screen fingerprint sensor and incredible Leica Triple Camera featuring an Ultra Wide Angle lens, the Mate 20 Pro has captured the imagination of Canadians from coast-to-coast.

“Canadians are looking for the best performance and the most innovative features they can find in a smartphone and the Mate 20 Pro is satisfying all of their needs.”

For the first time in Canada, there's a smartphone -  the HUAWEI Mate 20 Pro – that supports Wireless Reverse Charging, effectively enabling it to act as a power bank for other devices.

The HUAWEI Mate 20 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.
Powered by the world's first 7nm Mobile Artificial Intelligence (AI) chipset Kirin 980, the HUAWEI Mate 20 Pro will be available in Black and Twilight.
The new flagship supports the TÜV Safety Certified 40W HUAWEI SuperCharge. That means you can charge your HUAWEI Mate 20 Pro quickly and safely. The fast-charging technology can charge the HUAWEI Mate 20 Pro to up to 70 percent (or 2940mAh) in 30 minutes.
The HUAWEI Mate 20 Pro supports 15W HUAWEI Quick Wireless Charge1. Simply place it on a HUAWEI Quick Wireless Charge dock to enjoy convenient charging at extreme speeds: a 30-minute charge gives the device 30 percent (1300mAh) battery.
