Chinese smartphone maker Huawei is gearing up to launch its next-generation P-series flagship devices, which should be Huawei P40 and P40 Pro. While the phones have been leaked in the past, both of them have now appeared on TENAA.
Since the P40 and P40 Pro have been listed on certification website TENAA, it is being speculated that the launch of the flagship smartphones in the China isn’t far away. However, the company is yet to revealed any information regarding the same.
As per the TENAA listing, the Huawei P40 carries model number Huawei ANA-AN00 and ANA-TN00 while the P40 Pro carries model number ELS-AN00 and ELS-TN00. While the listing doesn’t reveal their specifications, it does confirm that both the smartphones will come with support for 5G connectivity.
Since the 5G support is touted, we expect the devices to come powered by the company’s latest flagship chipset — Huawei HiSilicon Kirin 990 5G SoC. We expect to know more about the phone’s specifications in the coming days or weeks.
As per the leaks, the Huawei P40 will come with a triple rear camera setup which will consist of a 40MP Cine (ultrawide) camera with a 1/1.5” sensor size, a 52MP main camera with a 1/1.3” sensor size, and an 8MP telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom.

On the other hand, the Pro model will come with a 40MP Cine (ultrawide) camera with a 1/1.5” sensor size paired with a 52MP main camera with a 1/1.3” sensor size. Rather than a telephoto camera, Huawei is said to adopt a periscope zoom lens like that of the Huawei P30 Pro. It is said to offer more optical zoom, at least 5x, and of course more digital zoom and the phone will also have a 3D ToF camera.
Huawei is expected to offer an OLED display with 120Hz refresh rate and the phones will have features like in-display fingerprint sensor. The screen will also come with a dual punch-hole cut-outs for housing the front-facing cameras of 32MP and 8MP.
As Huawei is still banned from doing business with the United States, the company lacks license to use Google Mobile Services. Thus, instead of GMS, the smartphones will come with the company’s own suite of apps named Huawei Mobile Services aka HMS. However, the device will be running the latest Android 10 operating system out-of-the-box with its own EMUI custom interface.
Apart from the P40 and P40 Pro, Huawei will also be launching another smartphone in the lineup — Huawei P40 Lite E. The smartphone has been spotted on Geekbench with 1.71GHz octa-core processor and 4GB of RAM, along with Android 10 OS.
Huawei usually launches its P-series flagship smartphones in the month of March and we expect the Chinese giant to continue doing the same this time as well. Thus, we expect the company to soon announce the P40 series launch dates for the month of March.
