The Huawei P40 , as I would say, the most "basic" model – to call it something – of this family, which comes with a total architecture four different devices If we count the Huawei P40 Lite introduced a few weeks ago. Along with it, Huawei's mobile catalog has been added to Huawei P40 Pro and P40 Pro +.

Curved screen and smaller size
Huawei has good news for those who still choose it cell phones -relatively- small. The new Huawei P40 follows in the footsteps of the previous model, and saves its screenshot to 6.1 inches, so that its size, is less than 15 centimeters high and less than 180 grams weight, it made one of the smallest and easiest plates we've ever seen so far in 2020.
The panel in question uses technology AMOLED, and it has a full HD + resolution that produces 2,340 x 1,080 pixels. In addition, it features a fingerprint reader as well, though the panel is not completely smooth, screen off Not so mentioned as in the Pro model.
And what about construction? In this new generation, Huawei opts for refresh thin lines It was first introduced alongside the P20 series, which a year later changed slightly for the P40 family. Therefore, we exist before a a glass-backed device, and a slightly modified aluminum chassis that acts as a link between the screen and the rear panel. Its front is focused on the screen, and in this case the “notch” disappears to make a hole in-house controller is a front-facing camera, located at the top left of the screen.
Some important details about your appearance IP53 Certificate which guarantees some resistance to water and dust, or lack of port for headphone 3.5 mm.
She is as strong as her older brother
The differences between this Huawei P40 and the "Pro" model are a little more pronounced when we look at its technical specifications. Both types are on the bases Kirin 990 5G, similar to what Huawei had been using on the Mate 30. series models SoC by seven nanometers, made up of eight calls, two of which are Cortex-A76 capable of running at a high frequency of 2.86 GHz, added to other Cortex-A76s that reduce their clock frequency to 2.36 GHz. Finally, the other four cores, designed to save energy, are based on the Cortex-A55 design and operate at a 1.95 GHz frequency.
Next to the processor we will find you 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal storage, the latter is expanded by the second-generation "Nano SD".
The biggest difference, and probably the most disappointing we find on this Huawei P40 regarding the P40 Pro reduced battery power, which happens to be "only" 3,800 mAh. Also, wireless charging support is lost along the way, and fast charging lowers its allowable maximum power to 22.5W. In a sense, in addition, the P40 loses a cooling system based on the graphene that its older brother has.
There are no surprises when it comes to software: EMUI 10,1 is a life-changing version. This is a new version of the product software based on the "AOSP" version of Android 10, and as a result you do not have Google services and apps.
Three-speed camera, now with a 50 megapixel sensor
The Huawei P40's graphics system hasn't changed much compared to the previous Huawei P30 in shape, but it has a backdrop. While triple camera in the back, in this case we have a RYYB formats 50-megapixel resolution UltraVision main sensor, which, like last year's model, used a matrix of pixels in which the green dots were replaced by yellow, so in theory, it can capture more light through some very complex image processing.
Compliance a 16-megapixel Ultra wide-angle camera and f/2.2, and finally the 8 "mephapixel telephoto" developed OIS.
As an exciting new experience, an enhanced focus system is called “Octa Phase Detection”. In addition, as usual, Huawei relies on the Pixel Binning concept to produce more detailed and accurate capture data using a larger sensor.
As for the front, inside the large module shaped pill on the screen, we find a 32-megapixel f / 2.0 primary camera, and next to it appears a room depth is designed to improve pricing power by translating the distance between the camera and the subject in the foreground, and thus producing an accurate blurring background effect – display mode -. Unfortunately, the Huawei P40 doesn't have any infrared based face unlock system with a more expensive model.
Huawei P40 price and availability
A separate cuts made by Huawei to this device are about the high-end model they have translated low value, which marks the P40 as one of the the cheapest high end of 2020.
In Europe, the terminal will continue to be sold at a total of 799 euros, and can be purchased through regular channels of the product's sales, although it is possible to store it today. Will be available at black, white, silver and gold starting April 7th.
