Due to the pandemic, smartphone manufacturers have been greatly affected. Huawei usually launches the next generation of its P series at the end of the first quarter (March) each year. However, this time, as all smartphone manufacturers are facing severe challenges, Huawei is also encountering the same difficulties.
According to reports, the launch of the Huawei P50 series was delayed due to device shortages, but the latest news indicates the series is about to be released. A Chinese Weibo user recently revealed that the Huawei P50 series will debut on July 29.
It is worth mentioning that the binary number 1011011001 converts to 729 in decimal, representing July 29. In addition, another Chinese Weibo user further revealed that the Huawei P50 series will include a 4G version.
As the blogger mentioned, the main model is the Huawei P50 4G version. Both models feature the Kirin 9000 chipset, but the 4G version does not support 5G networks and is expected to be priced lower.
There were rumors that the Huawei P50 series might use a Qualcomm 4G chipset, but it has now been confirmed that the phone will use a self-developed chipset.
According to previous reports, the Huawei P50 will be similar to the Honor 50, featuring a dual-ring rear multi-camera module. The main camera may use a Sony IMX707 sensor with an 18-125mm focal length (f/1.8 aperture), enabling 5x optical zoom.
The Huawei P50 series is expected to include the following models: P50, P50 Pro, and P50 Pro+, and some other variants will be launched later (such as the P50 Lite). The P50 will include multiple auxiliary sensors that support fingerprint recognition under the screen and dual speakers on the top and bottom.
