-[* black] Last instance is the 88° curved 6.76" screen which needs to come off.
- [* icon_note] In contrast to [https://www.ifixit.com/Search?doctype=topic&query=iphone%2012|Apple’s latest series of smartphones|new_window=true], Huawei wouldn’t chose between 5G or 90 Hz refresh rate and went with both in the Huawei Mate 40 Pro. Additionally we get an average 240Hz touch sampling rate.
-[* black] We already know that these kind of displays are a nightmare to remove but boy did we know little how this was going to be.
-[* black] Apparently well prepared we treat the screen with a seriously good amount of heat and after several minutes of hard work, we manage to press our iMac Opening Wheel under the screen … just to see the glass shattering right away.
- [* icon_note] It seems like Huawei used a new type of adhesive in the Mate 40 Pro. which feels a bit like a rubber gasket. Even after heating the screen for several more minutes with a heat gun the screen yields rather than the adhesive—no matter which tool we use and no matter at what angle we attack.
+[* black] For our last trick, we'll attempt to remove this 88° curved 6.76" screen.
+ [* icon_note] Unlike [https://www.ifixit.com/Search?doctype=topic&query=iphone%2012|Apple’s latest series of smartphones|new_window=true], Huawei didn't choose between 5G and a high refresh rate display—the Mate 40 Pro gets both! Making things even smoother, the display has a 240Hz touch sampling rate.
+[* black] First, we treat the screen with copious amounts of heat. After several minutes of hard work, we manage to press our iMac Opening Wheel under the screen … only to watch the glass ''immediately'' shatter.
+ [* icon_reminder] Our hunch is that Huawei may be using a stronger new adhesive for this Mate 40 Pro display. Even after ''more'' heat, the screen refuses to yield—no matter which tool we use, or what angle we attack.
+[* black] We knew going into this that curved displays were a nightmare to remove, but even we were not prepared for how terrible this one would be. No thanks, mate.
