Huawei P40 series: A Perfect Pocket Photo Studio, Shoot Like A Pro
Huawei launched its latest generation of phones, the P40 series, a major breakthrough in mobile photography on March 26, 2020. The P40 series stands out again in this area, with the P40 Pro getting 128 points from DxOMark, a record.
Huawei’s P40 series is a perfect pocket Photo Studio, you can shoot your picture like a real pro. You don’t need to look for any expensive equipment anymore or spend time mastering professional techniques to make professional-quality night shots and studio portraits. Anyone can become a great photographer with the P40 series.
The P40 series is equipped with the new Leica Ultra Vision camera. With a 50 MP Ultra Vision camera, a 40 MP Ultra Wide Cinema camera, the SuperZoom Array with 3x and 10x optical telephoto lens, and a 3D depth detection camera, the P40 Pro + guarantees impeccable definition over the entire focal length and in all lighting conditions.
Since the P20 Pro, Huawei’s top P-series models always shoot sharp images in low light. The P40 series Ultra Vision camera is based on a 1/1 28-inch wide-format sensor with 2.44 pixels μm. More light it can receive, and that improves the image quality when the lighting conditions are not optimal.
In addition, the P40 series Ultra Vision sensor uses a RYYB color filter, which replaces green pixels with yellow ones. This improves the light output by 40%. Compared to the S20 Ultra’s RGGB sensor, the RYYYB color filter has a much higher light sensitivity. The P40 series is also equipped with the Kirin 990 5G SoC, which is considerably more powerful than its predecessor, the Kirin 980 of the P30. This fifth generation of image processors displays colors much more accurately.
Do you want to shoot like a real pro? You no longer need a digital SLR camera for that. The P40 series’ advancement in mobile photography turns every user into a professional photographer.
The Kirin 990 5G uses the Da Vinci NPU architecture that enables AI calculations and applies next-gen AI algorithms designed specifically for portraits. The NPU can analyze more than 90 facial features and turns every portrait into a beautiful work of art. The multispectral color temperature sensor with IA AWB algorithm significantly improves color accuracy.
Another asset of the P40 is the launch of the Huawei XD Fusion image engine. This engine ensures high fidelity when combining information captured by multiple cameras and optimizes hair, pupils, tissues and other image structures. It also contributes to enhancing backlit portraits and bokeh, lighting multiple images, and AI processing techniques to prevent overexposure.
Photography is a unique means of expression and is undeniably very successful with the general public. With the 3x optical telephoto lens of the P40 Pro, you can take the best and most natural portraits on the market. With a focal length close to that of an 85mm DSLR lens, material distortion is minimized. The portable studio lighting technology from Profoto, a Swedish brand of professional lighting for photography, gives everyone access to professional studio lighting to take their photos to the next level.

Huawei is getting ready to release a new super-thin phone called the Mate 70 Air. Some details about this phone have already been leaked online, and now a new picture has appeared showing what it looks like.
What the phone looks like
A promotional poster for the Huawei Mate 70 Air was leaked today. The phone looks similar to other phones in Huawei’s Mate 70 family, but it’s much thinner.
The back of the phone has a round camera area with Huawei’s XMAGE camera logo on it. The edges of the phone appear to be shiny and polished. The back cover has a textured surface, similar to another Huawei model called the Mate 70 Pro+.
What’s inside the phone
There isn’t much information available yet, but the Mate 70 Air might be a mid-priced phone. Early reports said it would have 12GB of memory and either 256GB or 512GB of storage space. However, newer information suggests it will actually have 16GB of memory.
The phone is expected to have a large 6.9-inch screen. It will also have a high-quality main camera.
Other features
Unlike Apple’s iPhone Air, the Huawei Mate 70 Air will have a slot for a physical SIM card. The phone will run on Huawei’s HarmonyOS 5.1 software. It will come in three colors: black, white, and gold.
Huawei is expected to launch this phone in November, around the same time as its Mate 80 series.
Tipster Digital Chat Station has confirmed that the Chinese tech giant Huawei will release new phones called the Mate 80 series in November. These new phones will have better designs, cameras, and speed.
The company is expected to compete with Apple’s new iPhone 17 phones. Huawei will make four different Mate 80 phones: the regular Mate 80, Mate 80 Pro, Mate 80 Pro+, and Mate 80 RS. Each phone will have different cameras. The regular Mate 80 will have a 50-megapixel camera.
The Pro version will have a bigger 50-megapixel camera. The Pro+ and RS models will have even bigger 50-megapixel cameras.
The Pro model might have a flat screen and face recognition. The Pro+ and RS models might have curved screens that bend more.
The best phone, the Mate 80 RS, might have a 6.9-inch screen with special technology.
This screen should be brighter, use less battery power, and last longer than normal phone screens. Huawei might also use strong titanium metal for the frame and special glass on the back. Inside the phones, there will be a new chip called the Kirin 9030. The battery might be bigger than 6000mAh and charge very fast – 100W with a wire and 80W without wires. The phones might work with 5G internet and satellite communication.
The phones will use Huawei’s own software called HarmonyOS. This might work better with other Huawei devices and have more AI features. Some people think these improvements will help Huawei compete better with Apple, especially in battery life, communication, and smart features.
A Chinese company called HiSilicon Semiconductor just changed who’s in charge. The old boss, Xu Zhijun, stepped down from his job as the legal representative and chairman. Now the company’s CEO, Gao Ji, is taking over these roles.
Xu has been working at Huawei since 1993 and still has other important jobs there – he’s a vice chairman and sometimes serves as the rotating chairman. Him leaving this position is probably just Huawei moving people around to different jobs within the company.
HiSilicon is completely owned by Huawei and makes computer chips. This change in leadership might mean Huawei is trying to make things work better.
HiSilicon started in October 2004 when Huawei took its computer chip design team and turned it into its own company. The main office is in Shenzhen, but they also have offices in Beijing, Shanghai, and other cities in China.
