Huawei P40 series design

Tipster Evan Blass has shared alleged official renders of the Huawei P40 and P40 Pro. The standard P40 is shown to feature a flat display with a pill-shaped hole-punch that houses two camera lenses and impressively thin bezels. Over at the back, there is a large camera module with three cameras and a dual-LED flash.

As for the Huawei P40 Pro, its display is curved on all four sides. The upcoming flagship phone also flaunts a pill-shaped hole-punch with two selfie camera lenses. As for the rear imaging hardware, it is said to pack four rear cameras, one of which has a periscope lens with a telephoto lens behind it for zooming.

Coming to the top-end sibling, the Huawei P40 Pro+ (Huawei P40 Pro Plus / Premium Edition, as per rumours) will look similar to the Huawei P40 Pro. The main difference between the two phones will reportedly be the rear camera hardware, as the Huawei P40 Pro+ is shown packing five cameras at the back, complete with a periscope lens. The main camera on each Huawei P40 series phone is said to be a VARIO-SUMMILUX-H 1:1.8-4.0/18-240 equivalence ASPH lens.

Going by the leaked renders, the SIM slot, speaker, and USB Type-C port will be located at the bottom, and there won't be a 3.5mm headphone jack on the phone. Notably, the gap between the two selfie cameras will allegedly house face scanning hardware that has been carried over from the Huawei Mate 30 Pro. The standard Huawei P40 and the Huawei P40 Pro will come in Black, Blush Gold, Silver Frost, Deep Sea Blue, and Ice White colours. As for the Huawei P40 Pro+, it is said to come in plain white and black shades.

The phone is said to employ the proprietary Huawei XD Fusion Engine for photos, and will offer a range of 30X digital zoom.
