So, from what we know this far, the second-generation Mate X may launch next year with the Mate 40 series. A smart move as they could use the next Huawei Kirin 1000 series on both product lines; adding 5G connectivity natively.

Finally, according to an earlier report, the Kirin 1020 code-named Baltimore has almost locked in the use of TSMC’s 5nm manufacturing process; which can improve performance by up to 50% compared to Kirin 990. The CPU architecture will also be upgraded from Cortex A76 to Cortex A78; going ahead of Qualcomm still using Cortex A77 cores on their latest Snapdragon 865.
