The Huawei P50, which is a replacement for the Huawei P40 4G, it provides features that outperform those of its predecessor, as you would anticipate from a successor.

Design and Display
There is no disputing that Huawei made significant design modifications between the Huawei P40 and the P50. The two circles holding the rear cameras on the back are the most obvious of the changes mentioned above. The P40’s rectangular camera module is replaced by this. Text explaining the cameras and the Huawei insignia, which identifies the device as a Huawei smartphone, are also located on the back.
A 6.5-inch OLED display with a punch-hole camera in the center can be found on the front panel as opposed to the 6.1-inch OLED display on the earlier model with a dual front camera cutout. The colors for the Huawei P50 are Black, Gold, and White. Additionally, it has an IP68 grade for water and dust resistance, suggesting a chance that submerging it in water won’t cause damage.
The Cameras
Instead of the 8MP telephoto on the P40, the rear configuration has a 50MP primary camera with an aperture of f/1.8, a 12MP periscope telephoto sensor with an aperture of f/3.4, and 5x optical zoom.
Additionally, instead of the 16MP on the, we got a 13MP ultrawide camera with an aperture of f/2.2. The rear setup’s video recording capacity is 4k @ 60 frames per second.
Instead of the 32MP selfie camera on the front, we got a 13MP selfie camera with an aperture of f/2.4. The maximum video resolution for this camera is 4k @ 30 fps.
Hardware and Software
The HiSilicon Kirin 990 5G on the Huawei P40 and the Kirin 990 on the Huawei P40 4G are the P40’s 5G and 4G processors, respectively. The Huawei P50, on the other hand, has the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 4G chipset.
In addition, the Mali-G76 MP16 GPU has been replaced by the Adreno 660 GPU. In addition, we have a non-removable 4100mAh Li-Po battery, 8GB RAM, the choice of 128GB or 256GB built-in storage, and 66W rapid charging capability.
In terms of software, Huawei launched HarmonyOS 2.0 here in an effort to distance itself from the Google Android controversy.
