Longing for those Nokia Lumia 1020 days? The tech gods must have heard you. It seems that there will be another phone that will offer a 40-megapixel rear camera — accompanied by two more sensors at that.

According to the latest leak, the Huawei P20 Pro’s main sensor at the back is a 40-megapixel one. The secondary 8-megapixel telephoto shooter will provide 3x optical zoom and help it achieve high-quality 5x magnification. The third is a 20-megapixel black-and-white sensor that will also let you blur the background for that bokeh effect.

According to the latest leak, the Huawei P20 Pro’s main sensor at the back is a 40-megapixel one. And it’s paired with 8-megapixel telephoto and 20-megapixel black-and-white shooters.

The Huawei P20 Pro can reportedly shoot super-slow-motion 720p videos at 960 frames per second. No word on how it’s going to take the clips. Will it be continuous like on the Sony Xperia XZ2, or will it be short like on the Samsung Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9+?

Up front is supposedly a 24-megapixel selfie camera. Notice that it has the same megapixel count as that of the Vivo V9, which will be launched in the Philippines on March 22.

As with other flagship series models, the P20 Pro also benefits from Huawei’s partnership with Leica. Its cameras are co-developed with the German manufacturer.

Is the next Huawei P-series going to be an imaging powerhouse? A digital artist at one of the company’s creative agencies added these “PCE Series” ads to their portfolio — claiming 40MP, 3 lens rear (5x hybrid zoom) + 24MP selfie, all Leica-co-developed. pic.twitter.com/t8w3VlL55L

And here’s his tweet about the supposed design of the Huawei P20 Lite, P20, and P20 Pro

Other rumored specs include a 6.1-inch OLED screen with 1,080 x 2,240 resolution; the company’s own Kirin 970 chipset; a 4,000mAh battery that will support Huawei’s SuperCharge fast-charging technology at 22.5W; and Android 8.1 Oreo.

The variant with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of expandable memory will supposedly have a €900 (approximately P57,654 or $1,105) price tag in Europe. It’s also possible to have 64GB and 256GB versions in other regions.

We’re only a few days away from the Huawei P20 series March 27 launch, so the company be keeping us in suspense that long.
