Both the Huawei P50 and P40 support FHD+ OLED displays, but the recent P50 brings in a smooth 90Hz screen refresh rate and snappy 300Hz touch sampling rate on the table. When you go over to the ultra-wide lens, the Huawei P50 sports a lower 13MP lens, while the P40 has a 16MP lens. Finally, when looking upfront, the Huawei P40 has a higher resolution front camera lens at 32MP, while the recent P50 sits at 13MP. Connectivity & Other Features Normally, one would expect the latest model to have 5G connectivity, especially since its previous model supported it, but that is not the case for the Huawei P50. “Because of the four rounds of US restrictions over the past two years or so, 5G phones are beyond our reach, and we have to go with 4G.” However, for its other specs, the Huawei P50 features an upgraded Bluetooth 5.2, a higher IP68 rating, and Huawei's Histen audio. The Huawei P50 features an upgraded battery capacity of 4,100mAh from the previous 3,800mAh—more juice to enjoy. Plus, the new model supports faster charging of 66W from the previous Huawei P40's 22.5W fast charging. Of note is the Huawei Office that features a worksheet, presentation and document editor; Hi Suite which is a data manager for the device and a PC that works both via USB or WiFi; and Aldiko for managing and reading e-books.
