December 22, 2019
Huawei's next flagship smartphone is the Huawei P40, the next generation up from the P30 that will feature five cameras, 6.5” OLED panel with 120 Hz refresh rate, and a 5500 mAh battery pack made of graphene materials. The details reveal that the main camera of the device will feature 64 MP Sony IMX686 unit with hardware stabilization, coupled with a 20 MP ultra-wide module, a 12 MP telephoto lens, a Time of Flight sensor, a macro camera and a 4K video recording support. Earlier, rumors claimed that the upcoming smartphone from the Chinese tech juggernaut will have 8K video recording support, but it might not be happening. In terms of design, the Huawei P40 will reportedly sport a couple of sensors under the dual-punch hole in the front, consisting of a main sensor and an ultra-wide camera sensor. But, that’s not all; the tipster also shared that the Huawei P40 is likely to sport a 6.5-inch 2K OLED Waterfall screen with a screen to body ratio of 98 percent. Previous renders showed that the Waterfall display will not be as curved as that found in Huawei Mate 30 Pro. Aside from maintaining the slim form factor of the Huawei P40, the battery upgrade will make sure that it could deliver the 120 Hz refresh rate. It will use the Kirin 990 5G SOC. Similar to the Mate 30. Huawei was planning a global release for the P40 series of devices next year, despite the Mate 30 being a China-exclusive device. Richard Yu, Huawei CEO said consumers can expect a decent upgrade over the current Huawei P30 and P30 Pro devices, including a new design, improved camera quality, better performance, and improved AI functionality. The devices will also include Android 10 with the EMUI skin atop since Huawei’s Harmony OS won’t be ready for the limelight just yet and Google services don’t come on these devices. Huawei is banking on its own mobile services to bring success to the device. Huawei will likely have a hard time selling this phone outside of China because of the lack of the official version of Android.
Andrew Yang, candidate for the Democratic Presidential Nomination, mentioned the P40 at the recent debate, implying that not having Google apps was example of China’s technological superiority.
