Perfect for a happy snap

Huawei's latest phone makes all your pics look like a pro took them

-

HUAWEI deserves a high five for its new smartphone.

The latest P40 Pro+ now offers photograph­y fans five fabulous rear lenses for the ultimate family snaps.

Along with the usual portrait shots and wide-angle images, there’s the option to use its zippy super zoom, which can get up close and personal to whatever you fancy shooting.

In fact, there’s a 10X optical and a 100X digital zoom, giving the P40 Pro+ the edge over its rivals.

Clever image stabilisat­ion will also make your videos look like they’ve been shot by a pro and a new night mode allows you to take photos in total darkness without a flash. Huawei is using clever AI to help the camera pick the perfect settings so every shot should be good enough to hang in a gallery.

Other features coming to the P40 Pro+ include a stunning 6.58-inch curved screen, huge battery, improved embedded fingerprin­t scanner and a stunning ceramic finish. Under the hood, there’s Huawei’s latest Kirin 990 chipset which, along with being more powerful, also brings 5G data speeds to the P-series for the first time. That means you’ll be able to access blistering­ly fast downloads.

Huawei has launched its own app marketplac­e, the AppGallery, but Facebook and WhatsApp are among many notable absentees.

If that hasn’t put you off, then the P40 Pro+ goes on sale in June and costs more than £1200. It’s joined by a cheaper P40 Pro (£899.99) and entry-level P40 (£699.99) both of which are available from April 7.
