For many years, Europe's biggest electronics show, IFA, was the place Huawei chose to unveil a new Mate, the biggest of its flagship phones. That's not the case in 2018. We won't see the Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro, the latest in the series, until the fourth quarter.

But to whet our appetites, Huawei did give us a preview of what's widely expected to power the Mate 20. On Friday at the Berlin trade show it showed off the Kirin 980, its homegrown phone chip that's an answer to Apple's own-brand A series chipsets and Qualcomm's Snapdragon processors, the preferred chipsets of most manufacturers of Android phones.
