The Huawei P40 series of flagship phones are expected to break cover in March. A screen protector leakv by leakster Teme that had surfaced yesterday had revealed that the upcoming Huawei P40 Pro will be equipped with a curved display. The same tipster has shared an image that compares the screen glass of the P40 Pro with the likes of the predecessor Huawei P30 Pro and the Honor Magic 2 slider phone.
The screen glasses for the P30 Pro (left), P40 Pro (middle) and Honor Magic 2 (right) can be seen in the below image. As it can be seen, the Huawei P30 Pro’s screen glass a cutout for its waterdrop notch screen. However, P40 Pro screen glass does not feature such a cutout. It is speculated that the P40 Pro will be sporting a punch-hole display design. Also, its screen will be curved on all four sides.
In December, reputed tipster OnLeaks had shared the CAD renders of the Huawei P40 Pro. The renders had revealed that the corners of the phone where the display glass meets will have a unique design. The smartphone is expected to house a 6.5-inch OLED display and it is likely to support quad HD+ resolution. The display of the phone is rumored to offer a refresh rate of 120Hz, and it is expected to be equipped with an in-screen fingerprint reader. The device could be equipped with two front-facing cameras.
The Huawei P40 Pro is expected to feature as many as five cameras on its back. Tipster Teme has claimed that it could be equipped with a 52-megapixel 1/1.13” main lens that can churn out 13-megapixel images by using a quad-bayer filter. The sensor size is said to be 0.6micron which suggests that the 13-megapixel photos will have an effective large pixel size of 1.92micron. This tip contradicts previous claims that the Huawei P40 Pro would be a penta-lens setup that will include a Sony IMX686 64-megapixel lens, a 20-megapixel ultrawide lens, a 12-megapixel telephoto lens with 10x optical zoom, a macro camera and a 3D ToF (Time of Flight) sensor.
The Huawei P40 and P40 Pro will be powered by the Kirin 990 5G chipset. It could be housing a mammoth battery of 5,500mAh capacity. It is advisable to digest the specs leak of the P40 series with a grain of salt.
