New approaches to design and price
Huawei will release the P40 series in Paris on March 26. In advance, the Spanish manufacturer in China has released the Huawei P40 Lite. The new mid-range smartphones have already told us a lot about the P40 and P40 Pro. This is how Huawei is breaking new ground in design and price.
In recent years, Huawei has greatly adjusted the appearance of the Lite model to make it suitable for the more expensive P model. Therefore, Huawei P40 Lite provides us with the design prospects of P40 and Huawei P40 Pro. We hope that Chinese manufacturers will also use perforated displays here.

The camera on the back should be placed in a square groove on the back, similar to the time used by the Huawei Mate 20. The corresponding Huawei P40 Pro renderings have been circulated online and can now be classified as trusted.
Without Google, prices fall
The suggested retail price of Huawei P40 lite is 299 euros, which is 60 euros cheaper than its predecessor. The Huawei P30 lite will be priced at € 369 when it goes on sale in April 2019. For the top models Huawei P40 and Huawei P40 Pro, Huawei may adopt similar aggressive pricing policies. There are rumors that the Huawei P40 is priced at 600 euros and the Pro model is 800 euros. This will make these devices 200 euros cheaper than previous ones. The price cut of Huawei P40 Lite brings new credibility to the rumor.
Huawei may respond to U.S. trade embargoes through price cuts. As a result, Chinese manufacturers may no longer offer services such as Google Maps or Google Play Store on their devices. However, lower prices may make the device attractive to users. For example, the Samsung Galaxy S20 starts at only 900 Euros.
