But actually u can see that the kirin 990 5g beat the Snapdragon 855+, check yourself the antutu score posted by gsmarena team themselves in mate 30 pro 5g review. And moreover the kirin 990 chipset is a 2019 processor whereas Snapdragon 865 is a 2020 processor. So u can't compare them.

Shui8, 02 Apr 2020Wow will my statement encourage & affects big company? ... moreP40 Pro is not an ultrawide lense - stop spreading false information. Samsung and Apple lenses can be characterized as an ultrawide lense. Huaweis lense is just a wide lense.

AHA, 03 Apr 2020I am sure the photos are if not the best one of the best...... moreI couldn't agree more.
The P40 Pro is NOT a premium phone, it's not a flagship phone. It's a upper midrange phone. Amazing that people can't understand that.
The Kirin 990 chip cannot even compare to the SD855 chip. The display is still fullHD, there's a freaking monospeaker and many many other midrange specs.
The Mate 40 Pro will be a premium flagship but the P40 Pro is a midranger.

I am sure the photos are if not the best one of the best...but if you want a high end Soc you will bye Qualcomm, not a Kirin one!?!?! Lack of Google services is minus of course . Display is not high end too, Samsung a still top producer...And of course the big notch, man we are 2020!!! For 1000 euro area i consider Oppo X2, mi 10 Pro, One plus 8 or S 20 Ultra, although the last is without Qualcomm Soc for EU market !!!!

I myself prefer wider lens (I find 15-17mm to be a sweet spot that has the best balance between wideness, per pixel quality and distortion) for UWA camera, but I can definitely see the appeal of having a bit narrower one with a giant sensor.

For sure I'm really satisfied with it. Its true a little bit wider can be interesting but also will be harder to compose, as there are too many things in 1 frame.

As for the ultrawide, this is the practical difference between S10+ and P30 Pro (P40 Pro is even narrower).

If they ... moreHow can you know? You have the phone for comparison?.From all samples i've saw across the net, the Octa PDAF is indeed impressive.
'This camera has improved autofocus - now it's an all pixel omnidirectional phase detection autofocus. This means that not only are there autofocus detectors on each pixel but they are 8 of them per pixel. As a result, the camera's autofocus sensing has improved response to horizontal details whereas conventional dual pixel autofocus systems have a hard time with those. This also means autofocusing should also be generally improved in low-light.'
This are straight statement from GSMarena themselves. In theory, it should be better than Dual Pixel.

About video quality, maybe I dont agree with the score as well (those jitters still emerge), but its Octa PDAF? Its as good as X2 Pro. Its one of the recipe for its excellent lowlight performer. (Dual Pixel in Samsung & Iphone were great as well).
