Samsung for a long time held the number 1 position in the DxOMark’s display tests. This has changed, thanks to the new contender, Huawei P50 Pro. Not just cameras, the newly P50 Pro has also shined in display tests of DxOMark by scoring 93 points.

The newly launched Huawei P50 Pro comes with a great display on paper. It seems that it also fares well in thorough testing of the french analytics firm, DxOMark. Earlier, the display test’s number 1 champion was the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra with a score of 91 followed by the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra with its 90 points.

Now, the Huawei P50 Pro has overthrown the Galaxy S21 Ultra with its 93 points. It is worth noting that the P50 Pro costs way lesser than the Galaxy flagship phone.

If we talk about the P50 Pro’s display, the device has a 6.6-inch punch-hole display with curved edges. It is an OLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate and 300Hz touch sampling rate. It has a resolution of 2700 x 1228 pixels and a screen-to-body ratio of 91.3 percent.

According to the test summary, the display has good readability of 70 points and has a flicker-free screen. It also scored well in touch and motion by scoring 82 points. The major area where the phone really shined was artifacts. It scored 86 points in artifacts, which is the highest in any smartphone period.

Apart from this, the smartphone also recently won the camera test by scoring 144 points. It seemed that the huge camera island comprising four major sensors helped its ranking. It scored 106 points in the selfie camera test.

Huawei unveiled the P50 series on July 29 in China comprising the Huawei P50 and Huawei P50 Pro. During the launch, the latter was announced in five color variants – Black, White, Pink, Blue, and Gold. Now, a Chinese tipster has revealed that Huawei may soon launch a special edition P50 Pro in the Lunar Vision shade.

According to a leak from Weibo, the Huawei P50 Pro Lunar Vision will come in a white hue. But, unlike the White variant of the P50 Pro, the Lunar Vision edition will have a textured back.

Considering the phone has a glass built, it is evident that the finish is not just a design, rather it seems to be carved. Interestingly, the phone’s back glass has a moon-surface-like design and it is printed on the back of the glass. Moreover, the moon-surface-like design has a three-dimensional effect.

Apart from this, the upcoming Huawei P50 Pro Lunar Vision model is expected to be available soon. Since it is the Pro special edition model and the design is the same as the original, we can expect the Lunar model to come with the same specs as the original model.

Huawei P50 Pro Specifications

The original Huawei P50 Pro comes with a 6.6-inch OLED display with a resolution of 2700 x 1229 pixels. The smartphone has a 120Hz refresh rate and a 300Hz touch sampling rate. It sports a P3 wide color gamut and has a 450 PPI pixel density.

The smartphone features a unique camera island at the rear. It has two oversized modules with a 50MP main sensor and a 40MP Black and White sensor. It has a 13MP single camera setup with support for Optical Image stabilization.

It is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 and the Kirin 9000 SoC paired with up to 12GB of RAM and 512GB of onboard storage. The device has a 4,360mAh battery with whopping 50W wireless charging support.

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

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.
