Huawei P40 Pro+ — Full Specifications, Features & Price in Pakistan

The Huawei P40 Pro+ is Huawei's 2020 camera flagship and one of the most ambitious camera phones ever made: a penta-camera array with two separate telephoto lenses — including a 10x optical periscope zoom — a ceramic unibody, and Huawei's Kirin 990 5G chip. This guide covers its verified specifications, what the Huawei-only software setup means for daily use in Pakistan, and what used units typically cost — so you can buy with facts, not hype.

Design and Build Quality

The P40 Pro+ stands out physically: instead of glass, the back and frame are ceramic — harder, heavier, and more scratch-resistant than the glass backs on most flagships. At 226 g and 9 mm thick it is unapologetically hefty, and the ceramic construction is genuinely premium to hold. The IP68 rating (up to 1.5 m for 30 minutes) is rare among Huawei's P-series phones and gives extra confidence for daily use. Colours were limited to two ceramic finishes: White Ceramic and Black Ceramic.

Display Features

The 6.58-inch OLED panel delivers 1200 x 2640 resolution (~441 ppi) with a 90Hz refresh rate — smooth scrolling and punchy contrast, comfortably flagship-grade even years later. It is not a 120Hz panel like later Huawei flagships, but 90Hz remains noticeably smoother than 60Hz. Under-display optical fingerprint sensing and infrared face unlock are both present.

Processor and Performance

The Kirin 990 5G (7nm+) was Huawei's top in-house chip in 2020, built on an integrated 5G modem. In practice it remains capable for everyday multitasking, social apps, and video in 2026 — but it is five generations behind current flagships, so heavy gaming and long-term software support should not be assumed. One thing to know: the Kirin 990 runs hot under sustained load compared with modern 4nm chips.

RAM and Storage

The P40 Pro+ ships with 8GB RAM and 256GB or 512GB of fast UFS 3.0 storage. 8GB RAM is still workable for typical use in 2026. Storage expansion is via Huawei's proprietary Nano Memory (NM) cards up to 256GB — not standard microSD — so check the card slot type before buying expansion memory. The 512GB variant was the more widely listed configuration in Pakistan.

Camera Features

This is the reason the P40 Pro+ exists: five rear cameras including two telephoto lenses — a 3x optical zoom and a periscope with genuine 10x optical zoom, both optically stabilised, sitting alongside a 50MP 1/1.28-inch main sensor, a 40MP ultrawide, and a ToF depth sensor, with Leica optics. The dual-telephoto setup was unique at launch and remains rare. The front pair is 32MP plus an IR ToF sensor for depth and secure face unlock. As with all camera assessments: megapixels describe resolution, not final image quality — processing and age both matter.

Battery and Charging

A 4,200mAh battery with 40W wired charging, 40W wireless charging, and 27W reverse wireless charging — a charging setup that was ahead of its time in 2020. Note this is a 2020-era battery: any used unit today has several years of wear, so real-world battery life will be lower than launch reviews claimed. No 90W+ charging here, but 40W wireless remains fast by any standard.

Software and Updates

The P40 Pro+ runs EMUI 10.1 on an Android 10 (AOSP) base with Huawei Mobile Services (HMS) — there are no Google Play Services and no Google Play Store. Apps come from Huawei's AppGallery and third-party sources; many international apps that depend on Google services work poorly or not at all. This is the single biggest ownership consideration: if you rely on Google apps daily, this phone is not for you. Official update support for this 2020 model is effectively over.

Connectivity and Additional Features

Unlike the later P50 and P60 series, the P40 Pro+ does support 5G — the Kirin 990 5G has an integrated 5G modem. Connectivity includes Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), Bluetooth 5.1, NFC, USB Type-C 3.1, infrared blaster, FM radio, and dual-band GPS/GLONASS/BeiDou/Galileo. There is no 3.5mm headphone jack.

Variants, Colours and Availability

Verified configurations: 8GB + 256GB and 8GB + 512GB, in White Ceramic or Black Ceramic. The phone was never officially launched in Pakistan by Huawei — units in the Pakistani market are imported or used, so condition and IMEI compliance vary unit to unit. Do not confuse it with the standard P40 Pro (different camera system, no ceramic body) or the P40 Pro 5G.

Price in Pakistan and PTA Information

The P40 Pro+ is discontinued worldwide, so there is no current official Pakistan price. Dated Pakistan listings show dealer estimates around Rs. 258,700 for the 8GB + 512GB configuration (Yahoomobile dealer price lists, checked 2026-10-11); other listings vary widely (roughly Rs. 199,999–Rs. 350,000), which is normal for rare grey-market stock. The Zohaan Mobile Gallery catalog reference is Rs. 180,000 — a reference only, not a current market price. For a used flagship this age, condition dictates price: always confirm the current price with Zohaan Mobile Gallery before buying.

PTA: PTA approval applies per device and IMEI, never per model. Before paying, send the phone's IMEI to 8484 and confirm "Compliant" status. This matters even more for discontinued and grey-market units. How to check PTA approval.

Main Advantages and Limitations

Advantages:

• Penta-camera with dual telephoto — including a rare 10x optical periscope zoom
• Ceramic unibody with IP68 rating — genuinely premium build
• Full 5G support (unlike later P50/P60 series)
• 40W wireless and 27W reverse wireless charging
• Kirin 990 5G still capable for daily tasks

Limitations:

• No Google Play Services — HMS/AppGallery only, many international apps affected
• Discontinued; only used/grey-market units, condition varies
• Aged battery in used units (launched 2020)
• Heavy at 226 g; proprietary NM memory cards
• No official software updates anymore

Who Should Consider This Phone?

Good fit: camera enthusiasts who want a unique dual-telephoto zoom system at used-flagship prices, and buyers comfortable with Huawei's HMS-only ecosystem — ideally as a second device. It is one of the few older Huawei flagships with true 5G.

Look elsewhere if: you depend on Google apps (Gmail, Maps, Play Store purchases), need long software support, or want a warranty-backed new unit — compare current options in the all mobiles collection.

Final Verdict

The Huawei P40 Pro+ remains a fascinating buy for one reason: its dual-telephoto camera system with 10x optical zoom, which few phones have matched since. The ceramic build and real 5G are genuine strengths. But the HMS-only software, discontinued status, and aged batteries make it a specialist purchase — buy it for the camera, not as a worry-free daily driver.
