The review states: "The new Kirin 990 5G is one of the best on the market, with solid thermal properties."
I think its too far behind SD 865 and Apple's latest to be a fair statement. Especially considering the asking price at launch. Last year Huawei falsely claimed (and a log of reviewers followed) that Kirin was finally catching up in performance. Its pretty obvious now, that Kirin is exactly as far behind as the last few years.
Other than the good low light camera here, the disadvantages of no Google and subpar performance (for a flagship) are too big.
The big question is what will Huawei do, now then they no longer have acces to the latest cpu cores ?

Raffel, 27 Mar 2020Am i the only one that prefer Huawei p30 pro's notch over t... morething is, options are limited here, you can pick several available options here: punch hole, notch, or go to very outdated style - small bezel.. seems people nowadays are very allergic to bezel even it's just less than 5mm while couple years ago we lived in era where bezel on our phones is more than 1cm, So, the options left either punch hole or notch, since last year they were using notch, so today they are using punch hole, and punch hole are current trend now, lol.

But it all comes down to a personal preference whether you consider wider field of view or absolute image quality more important.

Remember Mate 30 Pro later received the software update to get the same software tuning as the one sent to DxOMark for the review?

Anonymous, 28 Mar 2020a very wrong time to launch amid Coronavirus pandemic... Not, this phone is sars-cov-2 free. Whats more worrying is they use just part of sensor in auto mode of normal fov, so details are about the same as p30pro which is also with apps.
Also to not forget the worst scenario already passed in china where they got most sales...

It is affecting all businesses including Dxomark (whose office is located in France, which is currently under lockdown), so all their reviews will be delayed.
Use your common sense in future.

It would be interesting how the P40 Pro performs at 23mm (not 27mm) in pixel binning mode. Either it will crop the ultra wide angle camera or it will use the full field of view of the main camera.
I know that the P30 Pro cropped the main camera at 130mm (it switches to the periscope camera at 135mm) , although the periscope camera can shoot at 125mm in Pro mode with raw turned on.

Except for the lack of GMS, lesser display (90Hz 1200p), and speakers, this phone certainly beats the S20 Exynos series. SoC seems slower on paper but with faster system performance you won't need that extra juice. Camera performance is impressive, tested P30 and P30 Pro last year and was very satisfied. Huawei only needs to work its OS ecosystem fast.
