Huawei P40 Pro Plus 8 GB / 512 GB / Global technical sheet
The Huawei P40 Pro Plus suits buyers who want versatile cameras and generous storage, with a 4,200 mAh battery that holds less than most phones launched around the same time as the main trade-off. Its 6.58-inch OLED display has 441 ppi, among the highest densities of its time; the 90 Hz refresh rate is average for that period.
This global configuration pairs 8 GB of RAM with 512 GB of storage, one of the largest capacities among phones of its time. Its AnTuTu result of 644,300 is also better than most. These comparisons concern phones launched around the same time, rather than the current phone market.
The main camera combines a 1/1.28-inch sensor, among the largest of its time, with optical image stabilization. Its f/1.9 aperture is worse than that of most contemporaries. The 10x optical zoom is among the highest of its period, and an ultrawide camera adds another framing option. Fast charging at 40 W is better than most phones of the time, while 40 W wireless charging is among the best; reverse wireless charging is included, too. At 226 g, the phone is among the heaviest of its time. Google Services are absent.
With an overall NeoScore of 7.3, the P40 Pro Plus stands out for camera range and storage capacity. It suits buyers who prioritize those strengths over a below-average battery capacity and a notably heavy build.
