Huawei‘s P series has always been about the awesome camera co-engineered with German photography giant LEICA. The P40 series was released in China a few days back and alongside the P40, the Huawei P40 Pro and P40 Pro+ were also unveiled. The major highlight of the P40 Pro+ is the 10X optical zoom lens which is not only capable of capturing 10xzoom shots but also 20x hybrid zoom and 100x digital zoom. The scope of what this brings cannot be better imagined but experienced. However, some camera samples have been shared online which shows how the zoom pans out.

The zoom allows mobile phones to take pictures far beyond the horizon of the natural eyes, unravelling invisible objects and still maintaining the vivid clarity of the shots. The first set of six continuously zoomed-in pictures fully show the charm of the P40 Pro+ 100x digital zoom. From a distance, it is just a row of ordinary high-rise buildings. As the zoom factor continues to zoom in, the artwork on the building became visible. Further zooming in up to 100 times reveals a man and woman on the bridge.

In another set of camera samples shot on a beach, the normal shot faintly shows the beach tents. The telephoto lens of the P40 Pro+ was able to reveal the colours of the beach chairs and even shows a few people sitting on them.

Another sample confirms the zoom is also active and can be deployed at night or in low light conditions. The P40 Pro+ zoom was able to scan the QR code on a smartphone’s screen from 50 meters away and in the dark! The picture is a collage with samples shot by two different flagship’s cameras which were not clear enough to complete a QR code scan.

Here are the samples of the beach shots using the optical zoom.

Huawei‘s launch event where the P40 series will be unveiled is only a few days away. The series is expected to be made up of the Huawei P40, P40 Pro and P40 Pro Plus. We have seen official renders of the models that would make up the series but one aspect that has often been elusive is the camera configuration of the models. Today, the likely camera specs of the Huawei P40 Pro has appeared online.

The Huawei P40 Pro engineering machine was recently leaked by a blogger on Weibo. The prototype has a covering for the rear camera but the design is consistent with what we have seen on renders. The P40 Pro is expected to come with a Penta-camera setup made up of five lenses. The main lens is said to be a Sony IMX700 sensor which supports up to 5x optical zoom. The rear camera also includes a 10X optical zoom supporting periscope lens, a telephoto lens, an  ultra-wide-angle lens and ToF lens. The front camera is said to be a dual punch-hole camera.

We are not so sure of the five camera setup and it may be for the P40 Pro Plus which the P40 Pro will have a Quad-camera setup. However, the expected Penta-camera setup i given as a 52-megapixel main camera (Sony IMX700 1 / 1.28-inch RYYB), a 40-megapixel lens (Sony IMX650 1 / 1.5-inch RGGB), an 8-megapixel telephoto lens, a 20-megapixel periscope lens, and a ToF lens.

We’ll have to wait until the launch to find out the exact camera setup. Whatever it is, though, the Huawei P40 series will have a powerful setup that will likely rattle the current DXOMark ranking. A couple of camera samples said to have been captured by the Huawei P40 Pro appeared online and they are just stunning. Check them out below.
