Huawei P40 Pro penta-lens camera gets detailed in the new leak

Huawei P40 series is all set to be announced on March 26. Moreover, the company has already launched the Huawei P40 Lite and P40 Lite E in the market. However, ahead of the official announcement of the Huawei P40 Pro, its camera configuration has been leaked online. The P40 Pro is expected to feature a penta-lens rear camera setup and dual selfie shooters housed in a punch-hole display.

According to a popular tipster on Twitter, the Huawei P40 Pro will come equipped with as many as five cameras on its rear. He suggests that P40 Pro’s penta-lens camera system will comprise of the 1/1.28” Sony IMX700 52-megapixel Hexadeca Bayer RYYB lens, a 1/1.5” Sony IMX650 40-megapixel ultrawide Cine RGGB lens, a telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom, a dual prism periscope zoom lens with 10x optical zoom and a ToF (Time of Flight) sensor.

Another leak suggests that this sensor will be a custom design by Sony and will feature “16-in-1” technology. Huawei is rumoured to put the “Quad Quad Bayer” sensor and it will do 4-in-1 conversions to reach the 16-in-1 stage. This will only be used for videos and photos shot under very dark conditions. Huawei P40 Pro is tipped to come with a 10x optical zoom camera. For this, the company is said to use a dual prism design (current periscope cams have only one prism).

Previous leaks have suggested that the Huawei P40 Pro may feature a 6.7-inch AMOLED display that will be curved on all four sides. It could be powered by the Kirin 990 5G chipset. The smartphone may offer a 12GB RAM variant as well. It is expected to come in colour options such as Black, Blush Gold, Silver Frost, Deep Sea Blue and Ice White.
