Huawei’s P40 series continues to expand as the company launches the Huawei P40 Lite 5G in Europe. It has an official price of €399(~P21,900) and will become available for purchase starting May 29. No word yet regarding Philippine availability, however, you might not have to wait for it as the new mid-range phone is a re-branded version of the Nova 7 SE. This also means the P40 Lite 5G specs are headlined by Kirin 820, 64MP quad-cameras, 6GB RAM, and 128GB storage. The phones differ, however, in colors and design, with the lite version sporting glossy and matte finishes in Crush Green, Space Silver, and Midnight Black.
This Huawei mid-range phone is also slightly different than the P40 Lite launched last February. That 4G variant carries a slightly worse chipset in the Kirin 810, 48MP quad-cameras, but with a slightly bigger battery at 4200mAh.
