Consumers can easily capture cinematic videos in any scenario, thanks to the 40MP Ultra Wide Cine Camera with built-in SedecimPixel Fusion Technology that enables extreme low-light performance.

The SuperZoom Array unique to the HUAWEI P40 Pro+ utilises folded optics to realise up to 10x true optical zoom and 100x maximum digital zoom. Comprising of two telephoto cameras, it adopts an advanced periscope design that includes light-reflecting prisms to deliver unrivalled zoom performance.

Combined with AIS, the HUAWEI P40 Pro+ provides the best image stabilisation ever on a HUAWEI P Series device.

Selfies are taken to a new level by the front-facing 32MP AF Camera and IR Depth Camera, which support accurate subject isolation and natural Bokeh effects.

The HUAWEI P40 Pro+ also takes full advantage of its multi-camera system with the HUAWEI XD Fusion Engine aggregating and processing data from multiple sources to generate a comprehensive improvement in picture quality. New features introduced with the HUAWEI P40 Series, including HUAWEI Golden Snap and Directional Audio Zoom, add even more versatility to the powerful cameras, allowing creators to easily capture incredible portraits and videos in low light conditions.

In April 2020, the Technical Image Press Association (TIPA) has given the HUAWEI P40 Series the highly coveted TIPA World Awards 2020, crowning the three flagship smartphones – HUAWEI P40, HUAWEI P40 Pro and HUAWEI P40 Pro+ – the Best Photo Smartphones of 2020. This marks the fourth consecutive year that the HUAWEI P Series has been recognised by TIPA, standing alongside a range of exceptional gear and solutions that professional photographers have come to love and rely on.

Ultimate Performance for a Real Experience

The chipset is given the thermal headroom to deliver exceptional performance by the advanced cooling systems, with the bespoke 4-in-1 SuperCool system in this smartphone.

The industry-leading and world’s fastest commercialized 40W Wireless HUAWEI SuperCharge is also available on the HUAWEI P40 Pro+ for fast and convenient charging.

As part of the larger Huawei ecosystem, this smartphone also works in tandem with devices such as the HUAWEI Sound X, and newly launched HUAWEI MateBook series and MatePad Pro – via functions such as Huawei Share, and Multi-Screen Collaboration to give users the complete Huawei Seamless AI Life experience.
