As per the report by GizmoChina, the design is similar to that of the ASUS Zenfone 6. The only difference is that the upcoming Huawei’s smartphone will feature three cameras instead of two.

The triple camera setup will be able to flip 180° to double as the front-facing cameras. There are around twelve patent images included, showing a full-screen phone with a triple camera.

Earlier this year, Huawei had unveiled P30 and P30 Pro smartphones during an event in Paris. The smartphones are powered by 7nm Kirin 980 processor, the same one that powers Huawei P20 smartphones.

The company’s official statement read, “The Huawei P30 Series builds on the HUAWEI P Series DNA in design and photography and is the company’s most advanced series of smartphone cameras.”

The Huawei P30 Pro is equipped with a new Leica Quad Camera System, including a 40MP main camera with the Huawei SuperSpectrum Sensor, a 20MP ultra-wide-angle camera, an 8MP telephoto camera, the HUAWEI ToF Camera and a 32MP front camera. Both the smartphones are powered by 7nm Kirin 980 processors.
