Huawei P40 Lite Full Specifications, Price and Release Date


Huawei has recently announced many mobile phones such as the foldable tablet Mate Xs, the Honor View 30 Pro, from the subsidiary of the Chinese company that also announced the Honor 9X Pro. Today Huawei launch with more weight in cameras, this is the Huawei P40 Lite. Find out more about it right now.


Key Features

  • 6.4 inch IPS LCD screen with Full HD + resolution
  • HiSilicon Kirin 810 processor
  • 6 GB of RAM
  • 128 GB of internal storage space
  • 48 MP quad rear camera + 8 MP (ultra-wide) + 2 MP depth-sensor+ 2 MP macro lens
  • Single 16-megapixel front camera
  • 4200 mAh battery with 40-watt fast charging support
  • Android 10 under the EMUI 10 interface

The P40 Lite comes with an interesting design weighing 183 grams and 8.7 mm thick, which is reasonable for a model with a 4,200 mAh battery.


It has a charge of up to 40W, promising 70% of the charge in just half an hour. To spend it all, there is a 6.4-inch IPS LCD screen in Full HD + with a hole for the 16-megapixel front camera, which has an f / 2.0 aperture.

The phone comes with the Kirin 810 processor manufactured in the 7nm process. Combined with it, there are 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. 



The operating system is EMUI 10 based on Android 10, however, here lives an "Achilles heel" of the brand's devices today: it does not have Google services pre-installed and they are unsafe if installed manually, according to Google itself.




Now speaking of the camera, the device has a main sensor of 48 megapixels f / 1.8, a wide 8-megapixel lens with 120º and aperture f / 2.4, a 2-megapixel macro lens with a focal length of 4 cm and aperture f / 2.4, and a 2MP depth sensor with f / 2.4. 

The camera has special photography modes like Super Night and an artificial intelligence video editor to add music and cut videos.

The most interesting thing is that the Huawei P40 Lite is a version based on the Huawei Nova 6 SE, so it also has a fingerprint reader on the side, USB-C, support for two chips with 4G LTE, Wi-Fi 802.11ac and Bluetooth 5.0 LE.

Price and Release Date

Announced today, the device will sell for 299 euros as of March 2, the equivalent of 326 $ in direct conversion. In its pre-sale, which runs until March 16, it will be available only in black and pink, leaving a green version to be made available later.
