How to Back up Your Photos from Huawei P40 to PC
“I'm a Huawei fan and I really love the Huawei P40 camera since it is made of Leica. How can I transfer photos that I took with the phone to the computer for backup? Any safe solutions?”
Huawei P40 comes with a 16MP ultra-wide-angle f/2.2 shooter, a 50MP RYYB f/1.9 camera and an 8MP telephoto. That telephoto is capable of shooting up to 3x optical zoom, and it’s likely to be able to do more with a digital zoom. With such a splendid camera, you might have taken hundreds of photos on your Huawei P40. The photos record the meaningful moments in daily life and losing them can be quite devastating for most of us. So it’s necessary to back up photos frequently.
