Camera

Capture more of everything. With a 120°3 Ultra Wide Angle Lens, you get a better view of what fascinates you, and the 17 mm focal length captures 140% more scene. That means more neon in your cityscapes, more friends in your group shots, and more nature in your landscapes.

The world is full of beauty and wonder waiting for you to discover. With 4 rear cameras, HUAWEI P40 lite shoots wider, clearer, and closer than you ever could have imagined. Take cinematic portraits with the bokeh lens, then switch to the macro lens and snap super-detailed nature shots. All while using the same phone. It’s like having a professional studio in your pocket.

The f/1.8 big aperture and ½ inch larger sensor have been designed to let in extra light, so you don’t have to stop snapping, even when the sun goes down. Thanks to HUAWEI AI Image Stabilization technology, Handheld Super Night mode cuts through the noise and gives you greater dynamic range, for sharper, crisper photos.

Software, Hardware & Performance

The Huawei P40 Lite is the second smartphone we meet utilizing the HiSilicon Kirin 810 SoC – Huawei’s latest mid-range chip and we already know this one is a beast in the mid-range bracket.

The GPU though is probably the most interesting part – it’s a six-core Mali-G52 up from the 710’s four-core Mali-G51.

The dedicated bokeh lens harnesses the power of AI depth perception to create a shallow depth of field, softening the background and juxtaposing it with the sharp detail of your subject. Perfect for when you want to make things really pop.

The Huawei P40 Lite has a side-mounted fingerprint scanner, and it’s among the best in terms of speed and accuracy. Face Unlock is surprisingly not available.

Like all EMUI-driven devices, you can set up a magazine lock screen style that changes the picture every time you wake up the screen. Sliding from the bottom will bring out quick shortcuts to some commonly used utilities.
