The official teaser also confirms that the P40 Pro will have a pretty massive camera bump at the rear.

The announcement certainly doesn't come as a surprise, since several major tech events have recently been canceled due to the Coronavirus outbreak. The Mobile World Congress was canceled last month after several companies decided not to attend the expo citing Coronavirus fears. More recently, the city of Austin canceled SXSW March events.
Huawei compatriot OPPO too had to launch its flagship Find X2 series phones at an online-only event last week, due to the same reason. The Game Developers Conference (GDC), which was scheduled to kick off next week, has been postponed to a later date. Several other tech events, including Google I/O will only be held online this year.
The Huawei P40 and P40 Pro are both expected to be 5G-enabled and come with improved optics over their predecessors. Under the hood, the two phones will be powered by the Kirin 990 5G chipset. Leaked renders of the phones suggest the vanilla P40 will have a triple-camera array at the back, while the P40 Pro will feature a more impressive penta-lens camera system.
