Anonymous, 28 Oct 2020The display has never been what Huawei was best at, sadly. ... moreYes correct. Trust me I have qhd+,120hz,hdr10+ (not hdr10 like huawei),1 billion color, o1 ultra vision tech, and other nice display tech in the menus too, and it is day and night when I compare with p40pro (essentially mate40pro has same panel just 0,2 bigger)

It is very sad :( Because I also love Huawei, I will wait p50pro+ or worst case mate50pro+

Until then, stick to oppo find x2 pro (bought it 6 months ago), maybe even go for x3 pro when come out april 2021 and stick 6 months until mate50pro+ hopefully great display on it comming (or huge surprise in 6 months from now on p50pro+)

    Livius, 29 Oct 2020Non of that bothers me. I have the Mate Pad Pro and it is s... moreYour point is correct.
    But nonetheless I tell you this - I turn my screen on, and turn my wife p40pro screen on. It is like day and night. My oppo is from different universe. I am sorry Huawei, but mate40pro is same panel as p40pro just 0.2 bigger and why oh why you upgraded EVERYTHING and kept that st**id 2018 screen panels!

      Nick.B, 28 Oct 2020Biggest bummer is not the lack of GMS, but the poor screen ... moreNon of that bothers me. I have the Mate Pad Pro and it is simply amazing ! This thing with lack of GMS only bothers those that are too lazy to install what they need themselvs. I have done that and there is no difference now between my Pad and Samsung phone. Plus, the lack of GMS is very good because GMS consumes a huge amount of battery in standby for nothing. And it has 60hz screen but the quality is very good. I would buy the Mate 40 Pro for the super good camera and for looking a bit different compared to the rest that look the same except iPhone and Google. This is my personal opinion. It has 90hz, it's more than enough for me.

        They upgraded EVERYTHING except the screen? That is not smart!

        My 1000eur oppo find x2 pro (7 month old model!):

        AMOLED, 1B colors, 120Hz, HDR10+, 800 nits (typ), 1200 nits (peak)
        1440 x 3168 pixels (~513 ppi density)

        1400eur mate40pro not even on sale till november:

        OLED, HDR10, 90Hz
        1344 x 2772 pixels, 18.5:9 ratio (~456 ppi density)

          why do people complaining about missing a qhd+ display resolution? I mean like this phone just 40 PPI below the wqhd+ Note 20u (even if the Note 20u display is 0.14" wider)

            Nick.B, 28 Oct 2020Biggest bummer is not the lack of GMS, but the poor screen ... moreThe display has never been what Huawei was best at, sadly. I wish they could make a QHD+ display with 120 hz at least, 1 billion colors will be extra for me. The Mate 20 Pro was heading somewhere, but that ended with a 1080p+ display on the Mate 30 Pro

              Biggest bummer is not the lack of GMS, but the poor screen even for 2020 not mentioning 2021. No qHD+, no 1 billion colors, no 120hz refresh rate! I got all of those in my x2 pro and trust me when I put it next to my wife's p40pro it is like night and day (and both phones cost the same including the fact the p40pro has no GMS)! That talks a lot for mate40 series too since they have same as p40pro screen just 0.2" bigger!

                if the Ultra-wide camera sensor is 20 MP 1/1.54″ then what is the pixel size?

                  Ok. You do know you can add Google services AFTER you have bought the phone!!??

                  Tutorials are all over YouTube. Don't see the problem!

                            Pixels have a pretty bad camera which takes very little detail which you can't rly edit the photo too much to your liking

                                1200 euro and no ois? Are you joking huawei?

                                  XDA Googlefier app will install GMS easily. But I don't need it. HMS is enough for me and provided better user experience with the design, Camera, Video app etc. I could install all my applications from Huawei AppGallery and Petal Search. Very happy to have switched to Huawei. I spent more time using the cell after the switch.

                                      I'm tired from arguing with you, all you know is what one or two youtubers tell you.

                                        TEtech, 25 Oct 2020Also, your account is the hate comment here, what's yo... morethe camera ?? all phones use similar sensors from Sony or Samsung so hardware wise they are almost the same only some software optimizations make the photos look better and the best of them all is Gcam and that is an objective statement not a preference : the pixel has the worst physical camera but with Gcam software the photos are fantastic so with better camera the photos are extremely good!! So not huawei or any other company have the edge when it comes to image proceeding as google does! so your argument is stupid and non relevant!
