- Huawei unveiled its brand new P40 flagship series during an online-only media event, and the series includes three devices: The Huawei P40, P40 Pro, and Huawei P40+.
- The P40 Pro is the best of the bunch, featuring a unique all-screen design complete with a hole-punch 3D face recognition camera and a significantly improved multi-lens camera module.
- All P40 phones will ship without Google apps on board, as Huawei is still banned from conducting business with Google.

Huawei’s P40 Pro launch event should have taken place in Paris, France on Wednesday, with CEO Richard Yu delivering his keynote to a packed audience. Huawei is still prominent in Europe and other markets despite last year’s ban in the United States, which stripped Google apps off of Huawei Android handsets, among other things. But these aren’t normal times. Paris, like many other places, is locked down and public gatherings like the launch of a brand new phone are banned. Even if they weren’t, nobody would risk hosting a public event as long as the novel coronavirus is still raging out there. So Huawei unveiled the three Huawei P40 handsets — yes, there are three of them — via an online-only press event. These are the P40, the P40 Pro, and the P40 Pro+, three high-end handsets that will compete directly against the Galaxy S20 series, all other Android flagships, and the iPhone.
Just as Huawei teased a few months ago, the P40 Pro phones do indeed feature a design unlike anything seen in the industry. And, just as expected, the P40 phones are all about delivering a better camera experience than before. Sadly, the P40 series will disappoint some fans of the series when it comes to software, as we’re still looking at Huawei’s Android 10-based software without any Google apps on all three phones.
