According to a new report, Huawei P40 is confirmed to release in late March 2020. The news arrived after Richard Yu, CEO of the company’s consumer products division, stated the upcoming smartphones release date in an interview with the French press in Shenzhen, China.
The senior executive had stated that the Huawei P40 will be launched at the end of March during an event that will take place in Paris. Yu also mentioned that the P40 will “benefit” from a new “never seen” design alongside improved photographic capabilities and better performance. This basically means it’ll surpass its previous entries which is expected from a newer entry.
Huawei P40 will be the successor of Huawei P30 and P30 Pro smartphones that were released earlier on this year. Furthermore, it will be marketed through all the classic distributor channels, operators and resellers as well. The CEO also mentioned that the device will run Android 10 OS based EMUI home interface, which is the company’s own custom skin.

This means that Huawei’s HarmonyOS (Hongmeng OS in China) proprietary operating system will not be featured on the handset. However, it is to be expected since we already confirmed that based on a previous report that we had covered.
In the interview, Richard Yu stated that the device will run Huawei’s Mobile Services, which is speculated to be ready by the time the Huawei P40 is released. The service is basically an app/software platform which is similar to Google‘s Play Store. If the device succeeds, then Huawei will be able to attract a large number of developers (those that generally target Google’s API) for its app ecosystem.
