While Huawei P50 Pro leaks highlight a powerful camera module As expected, the reality of the Huawei P50 could be a little different. New behind-the-scenes information presents the first renders of the smartphone, with a large camera module, which has two other lens sub-modules.
Despite its striking appearance, insider Waqar Khan points out that the product will not have a periscopic lens for zoom, but will have a telephoto sensor. In practice, the device will have optical zoom without loss of quality, but much more limited. In our article on the size of the lens case From the Mi 11 Ultra we explain why periscopic technology can deliver such efficient results.
With no major specifications revealed regarding its lenses (such as megapixels, aperture, and their supplier), the Huawei P50, according to the leak, will have — in addition to the main and telephoto sensors — an ultra-wide lens and a final unspecified sensor. Another difference between the device and its future more robust siblings involves the screen, which would be flat. Lastly, the processor should be the Kirin 9000, the same used in the line Mate 40.
Postponed to May and who knows without Android
Possibly delayed until May, the Huawei P50 line could offer the operating system HarmonyOS, the Chinese company's proprietary OS, according to leaks. The good news for those concerned about app compatibility is that the system should be able to work with Android apps.
In an effort to stem losses caused by US sanctions — which led the company to end its partnership with Google — Huawei has even been putting a lot of money into its own Play Store, the AppGallery. Even so, without the appeal of the Gmail suite, Maps, Drive and so many others, the brand has not been achieving good numbers outside the Asian markets.
It is worth remembering that the brand returned to Brazil in 2019, and here it sells some smartphones that can still work with the Play Store and others, such as the P30 line. Despite this, the national strategy is focused on the sale of wearables, such as smartwatches and wireless headphones.
