Huawei
is reportedly working on Huawei P40 and P40 Pro as successor editions of the
Huawei P30 and Huawei P30 Pro that had debuted in the first quarter of this
year. The Huawei P40 series is expected to break cover by Q1 2020. A fresh leak
has revealed the key specifications of the Huawei P40 Pro. The leak also states
that the phone could be backed by a 5,500mAh graphene battery and it may arrive
with 50W fast charging technology.
According
to the leak, the volume of the 5,500mAh graphene battery that will be powering
the Huawei P40 Pro will be only 70 percent of that of lithium batteries. The
graphene battery could be coupled with the newly developed 50W rapid charging
technology from Huawei which will take only 45 minutes to charge it completely.
The
leak has further revealed that the Huawei P40 Pro will be coming with a
6.5-inch waterfall display. The OLED screen will support quad HD+ resolution
and 120Hz refresh rate. It may offer a high screen-to-body ratio of around 98
percent. The display of the phone may bear a pill-shaped cutout for dual selfie
snappers.
The
Kirin 990 5G is expected to be powered the Huawei P40 series. The back panel of
the Huawei P40 Pro could be fitted with a Leica engineered penta-lens setup
that may include Sony IMX700 or IMX686 primary lens with OIS support and RYYB
color arrangement, a 20-megapixel ultrawide lens, a 12-megapixel periscope
telephoto lens, a macro lens and a ToF sensor. The rear cameras may support 4K
video recording.
The
P40 Pro may come with main sensor + ultrawide lens dual selfie camera system
like the Huawei Nova 6 5G phone. The leak states that the Huawei P40 series
will run on Android 10 customized with EMUI 10 skin.
The
leak has no information on the launch date and pricing of the Huawei P40
series. Readers are advised to digest the above report with a grain of salt.
The P30 series were made official in March this year. Hence, the P40 and P40
Pro may break cover around the same time next year. A recent report had
revealed that Huawei will be selling the Huawei P40 series in the global
markets.
