Huawei announced the HUAWEI P50 series consisting of HUAWEI P50 and HUAWEI P50 Pro at the end of July. Unlike the Pro model, which comes powered by both Kirin 9000 and Snapdragon 888, the vanilla variant only features Snapdragon 888. The Kirin 9000 version of the Pro went on sale soon after the unveil, while the vanilla model is scheduled to hit the shelves next week. Ahead of that, this phone has been now listed on popular online retailers.

HUAWEI P50

According to a report by ITHome, the HUAWEI P50 with Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chipset is now listed on JD, TMall, and other online retailers in China. The smartphone is set to go on sale for the first time on September 29 at 10:08 AM (local time).

The HUAWEI P50 arrives with features like 6.5-inch 90Hz OLED display, 50MP (wide) + 12MP (5x periscope) + 13MP (ultra-wide) triple rear camera setup, 13MP front-facing camera, IP68 dust and water resistance, stereo speakers, under-display fingerprint sensor, HarmonyOS 2.0, 4,100mAh battery, 66W fast charging, and more.

Unfortunately, it does not have support for 5G just like the Pro model. These phones are limited to 4G LTE due to the four rounds of sanctions imposed by the United States. The 8GB + 128GB and 8GB + 256GB variants of the handset are priced at ¥4,448 ($694) and ¥4,988 ($771) respectively in China.

On the other hand, the Snapdragon 888 version of the HUAWEI P50 Pro is expected to go on sale in December.

Huawei P50 and Huawei P50 Pro announced: fresh design, groundbreaking cameras, and the Snapdragon 888 chip

Habeeb Onawole — Thu, 29 Jul 2021 14:16:24 +0000

The Huawei P50 series should have been announced in the first quarter of the year but Huawei’s ongoing troubles forced the company to postpone the launch. Today, the Huawei P50 and Huawei P50 Pro have been finally announced in China and they boast a new design and the impressive photography performance the series is known for.

Huawei P50 series Design

The Huawei P50 duo drops the pill-shaped punch hole from last year’s P40 series for a centered hole that houses a single camera. However, the main change is on the back. Huawei has gone for a unique camera housing style that makes use of double rings to house the sensors. It takes up much more space but this design won’t have you confusing the Huawei P50 and P50 Pro for any other phone.

The P50 Pro is the more premium model of the two with its curved display, special Ripple Blue color variant, eye-catching pink variant, and a collector’s edition that is made of nano-crystalline glass which is stronger and has up to 5 times increased drop resistance.

Huawei P50 Specifications

The Huawei P50 has a 6.5-inch FHD+ (2700 x 1224) flat OLED display with a 90Hz refresh rate. It can display up to 1.03 billion colors, has a P3 wide color gamut, 1440Hz high-frequency PWM dimming, and a 300Hz touch sampling rate.

Huawei has adopted Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 888 processor with a 4G modem. It comes with 8GB of RAM and will be available in 128GB and 256GB storage variants with support for storage expansion via an NM memory card slot.

There are three cameras on the back of the phone – a 50MP f/1.8 RGB camera, a 13MP f/2.2 ultrawide angle camera, and a 12MP f/3.4 telephoto camera with OIS. A 13MP f/2.4 camera sits inside the punch hole in the display.

The Huawei P50 has 5x optical zoom and up to 50x digital zoom. It also has the new generation XD Fusion Pro graphics engine for image enhancements.

There is a 4100mAh battery under the hood along with support for 66W fast wired charging. Sadly, the standard model doesn’t get support for wireless charging. It has an IP68 rating, dual SIM support, stereo speakers, Bluetooth 5.2, NFC, and an in-display fingerprint sensor. It will run HarmonyOS 2 out of the box.

Huawei P50 Pro Specifications

The Huawei P50 Pro has a 6.6-inch curved OLED display with a 2700 x 1228 resolution. The screen has a 120Hz refresh rate, 1440Hz PWM dimming, and a 300Hz touch sampling rate. It can display up to 1.07 billion colors and has a P3 wide color gamut.

Huawei is offering the P50 Pro in two processor variants – its own Kirin 9000 and Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 888. However, both variants have their modems limited to 4G connectivity, no thanks to a sanction by the U.S. government. The difference in the chipset will translate to a difference in the overall performance of the phone. We are particularly eager to see the camera differences since they have different ISPs.

The Huawei P50 Pro will be available in four configurations:

8GB RAM +128GB
8GB RAM + 256GB
8GB RAM + 512GB
12GB RAM + 512GB

There is support for storage expansion (256GB. max) via Huawei’s proprietary NM memory card slot.

The Huawei P series is known for its camera performance and Huawei goes all out with the P50 Pro. The phone has two primary cameras – a 50MP f/1.8 RGB sensor with OIS and a 40MP f/1.6 Black and White sensor. The phone also has a 13MP f/2.2 ultrawide angle camera and a 64MP f/3.5 telephoto camera with OIS. There is a 13MP f/2.4 front-facing camera too with support for autofocus and AIS anti-shake.

The P50 Pro has 3.5x optical zoom, 20x hybrid zoom, and 100x digital zoom. Huawei says the P50 Pro has an HDR Vivid mode and an XD Fusion Pro graphics engine that optimizes image quality and color reproduction.

1 of 2

There is a 4360mAh battery under the hood with support for 66W fast wired charging and 50W wireless fast charging. It also has support for reverse wireless charging. Unfortunately, Huawei won’t be bundling the phone with a charger this year. Just like the P50, the pro model also has an IP68 rating. Other features are stereo speakers with a new Histen algorithm, NFC, Bluetooth 5.2, an in-display fingerprint scanner, and HarmonyOS 2 pre-installed.

Huawei P50 dummy photos showcase the front and rear designs

A tipster has revealed a whole lot about Huawei’s yet-to-be-released flagship model, the Huawei P50. The leak displayed design and specification details of the high-end and much-awaited model, with a few photos of the prototype of the smartphone which is billed for release in June this year.

Popular tipster Digital Chat Station sharing some stunning details and prototype photos of what he insisted was the Huawei P50 series. The details included the design, camera setup, operating system, and a few other features of the model. A follow-up analysis by the concept creator @HoiINDI provided a set of seemingly compelling renders for what he claims are Huawei P50, P50 Pro, and P50 Plus smartphones.

Some earlier leaks relating to the P50 had shown that the flagship smartphone from Huawei will be powered by a Kirin 9000 chipset, a 6.3-inch display, powerful battery life, and fast charging capabilities.

We expect the P50 to be the base model in the P50 series and the details released by the tipster offer a bird’s eye view of what we could expect when Huawei finally unveils the P50 in a few weeks hopefully. The leak reveals that the device will run on Huawei’s homegrown operating system the HarmonyOS, which should be expected, given the problems Huawei had faced in the past year over the US restriction of its access to key suppliers. The P50 prototype photos also reveal a quad-camera system, with a center hole punch display design and a cylindrical camera module. The camera system is equipped with LED flash technology.

There were no details about the price of the Huawei P50 and a few other details and specifications are still lacking. It remains to be seen whether the leaked photos and render details are truly the much-awaited P50. The coming weeks will reveal the authenticity of the leaked details relating to the Huawei P50.

Huawei P50 protective case appears online, reaffirming the rear design

Huawei has not been as vibrant as it used to in terms of product releases, no thanks to sanctions by the Trump’s U.S administration that cut off the company from access to chip for its smartphones. Huawei was able to launch the Mate X2 foldable phone with a Kirin 9000 chip as a result of inventories it stockpiled before the ban went into effect. In the same manner, the company is also expected to announce the Huawei P50 around April this year.

The renders of the P50 series consisting of the P50 and P50 Pro were shared by noted tipster Steve Hemmerstoffer (@Onleaks) on Voice recently. The renders not only gave us a glimpse of the front aspect of the models but also the rear designs. Yet again, the P50’s rear protective case has appeared online to lend some credence to the rendered design. The protective case contains two large cut-outs at the rear for the camera modules.

The Huawei P50 series is expected to arrive with a dual-camera setup with the two camera sensors having an extraordinarily large round aperture each of equal sizes. However, the configuration of the camera setup is yet to be revealed. There are speculations, though, that the P50’s camera setup will include an industry-first 1-inch Sony IMX800 sensor.

This leaked protective case is a third-party accessory but it goes to confirm that the device will likely arrive with the unique design that was leaked by Onleaks. We expect more details of the P50 series to emerge as the expected launch date draws closer.
