[Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers] Duncan1982:
So as the title goes are you on the fence in your decision to buy the Mate 20 Pro?

Let's see if I can help in anyway with my honest review and thoughts about it.

Display: So this is a tense subject as you have probably read already that it has some issues (for some). Now I have a BOE display and not LG however both are being reported with the Green Hulk effect, I'm glad and extremely happy this is not an issue for me. The display is crisp and vibrant with fantastic details, as you would expect, the clarity is on point to. However perhaps this is a concern, I wouldn't worry and would purchase regardless, buy that's just me, maybe for you though this might be a turn off? I think this shouldn't stand in your way, maybe hold off for a couple of more weeks?

Performance: The Mate 20 Pro is absolutely fantastic with the Kirin 980, everything is extremely snappy and gets the job done, the only slight negative is ram management, this could be and hopefully will be improved, but this chip is just so so good, probably better then the Snapdragon 845. There are no stutters or freezes and all I can say is will a little more refined tuning through updates, it will only get better.

Camera: Now I haven't tested this enough yet, only had my Mate 20 Pro for a week or so, but from the images I have taken it performs great. AI does a great job (this can be turned off) if you don't like . The camera UI is nicely laid out and presentable, if you have a tripod you'll be able to get some nice long exposure shots, light trails ect and i love the simplicity in being able to do this with the Mate 20 (I also had the P20 Pro) and the camera on that was superb, this takes it to a nice new level with the addition of a wide angle lens. Is it the perfect camera? This is subjective as each eyes see different things, but it's a top performer thats for sure.

Battery: Well what can be said here is it's absolutely on point and even if your a heavy user like me, the Mate 20 Pro will very very easily get you through the day, and if your extreme and it doesn't quite, then the 40w charger has your back, it charges very very quickly.

Build & Design: This is always subjective as some like curved displays others not so much. The curve I like, still prefer a flat display if I'm completely honest, however it's a Evolved Samsung , nice and slim, solid, and feels great in hand, although the Twilight (absolutely stunning) is a bit slippery lol but I have no complaints with the design despite it having a resemblance to Samsung.

Features: This has all the bells and whistles as you'd expect , ip68, wireless charging, even reverse (although this is a gimmick) even retains the forgotten ir blaster (how about that) yes headphone jack is not present, but at least a dongle was included (cough cough Apple). Face ID works very well even in dark environments, UD Scanner, despite what YouTubers have said, it's more accurate and faster than my Note 9.

So Should you buy it?

Absolutely yes now there are a few other negatives that I will throw in, updates are well painfully slow, but we do get them eventually, and it has Android 9 out of the box, yes with EMUI, but that had improved, although still not the best, if you want to root and rom, then at this point forget about it, Huawei has bolted that door.

I honestly love the Mate 20 Pro, I still think as the best all round device is the Note 9, I am taking great joy in using the Mate 20 Pro, and it outshines the Note in many areas, Camera & Battery, but the Note is the complete package, with my Huawei a close second .

Yes I would recommend the Mate 20 Pro, so if your on the fence heck 14 day trial, don't like return, but I'm sure you will.

Hope this helps a little.....:good:
