In the Huawei Terminal Product Strategy Online Conference held on the evening of February 24 this year, Huawei Consumer Business CEO Yu Chengdong announced that Huawei ’s new P40 series smartphones will be released in Paris, France on March 26.
The release date and place of Huawei P series seems to have become a “traditional” of Huawei. Because on the same day in 2019, that is, March 26, 2019, Huawei held a global conference in Paris, France, and officially released the Huawei P30 Series , opening a new chapter in Huawei’s mobile imaging.
However, with the impact of the global epidemic, it is no longer possible to hold a large offline conference in Paris this year as scheduled. But soon, Huawei once again announced that it will hold a global online launch conference of Huawei P40 series new products on March 26.
As the time for the press conference approaches, more and more news about the new products in the series will be exposed. Before the launch of the conference, we can also try to see in advance what the new machine is worth looking forward to based on the information that has been exposed online.
In February of this year, when people’s topics were still focused on the newly released folding screen phones, Foreign Digital Trends turned their attention to an engineering model that suddenly broke into their field of vision.
Although the appearance of this model has been “camouflaged”, Digital Trends convinced Digital Trends that the engineering machine is one of the Huawei P40 series that has not yet been released.
Although this model may be an earlier prototype, it has generally been linked to the model that will eventually be released. Due to shooting conditions, Digital Trends only photographed the back and the bezel-top part of this prototype.
Soon after Digital Trends broke the news, a well-known foreign source evleaks exposure some high-definition renderings of Huawei P40 series, further Shows the front screen and more body details of this model. And pointed out that the front screen form of Huawei P40 is expected to upgrade again.
From the current time node and content, your breaking news is considered to be very confident, because Huawei ’s official pre-heating video in the past few days suspected that the Huawei P40 series will use a quad-curved screen. Design element.
Another official poster also contains an appearance element of the new P40 series. After comparing with the exposed renderings, Ai Faner believes that this should be the side view of the rear camera module. The ground shows the thickness and side length of the rear camera module.
Based on the current renderings and various exposure news, Huawei P40 is a rear-mounted Leica four-shot. It seems that Huawei P40 Pro will be upgraded to the rear-mounted Leica five-shot luxury specification.
Based on the lens combination experience of Huawei P30 Pro , it can be roughly speculated that the four-camera module on the rear of Huawei P40 Pro will be replaced by a It consists of a wide-angle main camera, an ultra-wide-angle lens, a periscope telephoto lens, and a 3D ToF depth sensor. There are many speculations about the combination of Leica’s five-shot lenses circulating here, so I won’t repeat them here.

In the main camera section , Huawei P40 series may be equipped with new sensors customized by Sony and exposed from the current network According to the news, the pixels and area of custom CMOS seem to be significantly improved. As the saying goes, “the bottom one is crushing people”, the most obvious benefit brought by large area CMOS is to increase the effective light input when shooting at night. , So as to improve the film effect under low light environment.
The RYYB color array currently used by Huawei is believed to continue to be used in the P40 series.

If there is no accident, Huawei will also send P40 series models to DxOMark this time. So we might as well guess how many points DxOMark will give in the end?
As for performance configuration, according to past experience, the possibility of deploying the Kirin flagship chip in the entire Huawei P40 series is extremely high, and according to Huawei’s leading position in the communications field, the Huawei P40 series may all support 5G, and core performance will Huawei Mate 30 Pro 5G on par.
As the press conference approaches, I believe more news about Huawei P40 series will surface in succession, let us wait and see.
