The P40 Huawei’s new flagship range of smartphones under the P-series. The device comes as the direct successor of Huawei P30 of 2019, and as you would expect, lot of things has changed. Although, while the display remains 6.1-inch with 1080 x 2340 pixels resolution, there is a switch in the type of notch, to a new pill-notch, instead of the U-shape notch used in the predecessor.
In the hardware department, the Huawei P40 is powered by HiSilicon Kirin 990 CPU. This is a 5G Chip, and makes use of a 7nm+ EUV processor, comprising of a dual-core 2.86 GHz Cortex-A76, dual-core 2.36 GHz Cortex-A76 and a quad-core 1.95 GHz Cortex-A55 CPUs, along with Mali-G76 MP16 GPU, 6/8GB of RAM and 128/256GB internal storage, expandable up to 256GB via Nano Memory (NM) slot.
On the camera department, the P40 pack 3-lenses at the back. The main sensor is a 50-megapixel unit featuring f/1.9 aperture, OIS and omni-directional PDAF. The second sensor is an 8-megapixel lens with OIS, PDAF and 3X optical zoom, while the third lens is a 16-megapixel ultra-wide angle lens. On the front, there is just a single 32-megapixel selfie sensor, kept alongside an IR TOF 3D sensor for bio-metric FaceID only.
Whats more? The device comes with an in-screen fingerprint scanner, and available in Silver Frost, Blush Gold, Deep Sea Blue, Ice White and Black colors, with either a single or dual SIM card along with IP53 certification. Battery power comes from a 3800mAh battery with 22.5W fast charging. The phone runs on Android 10 based on EMUI v10.1 with Huawei Mobile Service (HMS).
