The P40 Lite has four camera sensors on the back - a main 48MP shooter, an 8MP ultra-wide lens, a 2MP depth sensor and a 2MP macro lens.

Connectivity options include 4G LTE, Bluetooth, NFC, GPS, USB Type-C, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. The lack of an AMOLED panel makes way for a side-mounted fingerprint scanner.

Huawei P40 Lite has been launched for EUR 299 (roughly Rs 23,400) for the 6GB variant. The smartphone runs on Android 10-based EMUI with Huawei Mobile Services instead of Google Mobile Services. This means that the P40 Lite does not come with Google Play Store, Google Maps, YouTube or other such apps.
