Huawei P40 Pro Silver Frost 1102700047 review
Huawei has brought some interesting new features to the P40 Pro, including a 90Hz refresh rate for the OLED display, a curved screen on all four sides, leading-edge cameras, and a backplate design that really does break new ground.
Huawei P40 Pro review: Breaking Point
The Mate 30 Pro was the phone with the camera so good it was almost worth considering leaving the Google ecosystem to have but the P40 Pro can’t even manage that. No.- - Superb camera
- - Premium design
- - Simple 5G
- - 3D Face Unlock!
- - Deeply compromised software experience
- - NanoMemory still sucks

I was expecting the Huawei P40 Pro to blow away competition by miles ahead, but based on my test results, the P40 Pro’s strength is mostly on the super telephoto end as well as extreme dark scenes.
Huawei P40 Pro Deep Sea Blue 1102700048 review
The Huawei P40 Pro has a great smartphone camera that delivers impressively high-quality images in conditions that other cameras would struggle. However, the current situation between Google and Huawei means that you can't use many of the apps you'd take for granted on other phones.- Excellent performance in the default settings
- High-quality video with good stabilisation even in 4K mode
- Superb night-mode that delivers sharp images in challenging conditions
- Limited range of apps available
- The longest digital zoom settings are best avoided
Huawei P40 Pro Silver Frost 1102700047 review
The Huawei P40 Pro’s hardware makes it the most polished and capable device the company has ever made, but the software experience cripples the handset. The lack of Google Mobile Services is a major problem for many would-be users, and while the camera, design and battery life are all first-rate,...- Phenomenal battery life
- One of the best cameras in a phone yet
- Likeable design
- Frustratingly limited software
- Big camera bump
- Bezels don’t add much
Huawei P40 Pro Silver Frost 1102700047 review
Fantastic hardware meets challenged software; the P40 Pro is the best camera phone you can get for £899, and the phone’s design is beautiful. Despite some elegant software highlights too, however, the limitations when it comes to Google will likely turn many off.- Class-leading camera
- Good battery life
- Elegant design
- Great if you don't want Google
- No Google Services mean
- for the price
- you'll probably want to look elsewhere (which is a shame)
- Massive hole punch
- App Gallery needs serious improvements quickly
Huawei P40 Pro Review
Fantastic hardware meets challenged software; the P40 Pro is the best camera phone you can get for £899, and the phone’s design is beautiful. Despite some elegant software highlights too, however, the limitations when it comes to Google will likely turn many off. If Huawei can improve this in the phone’s lifetime, then the P40 Pro will be a winner.- Class-leading camera
- Good battery life
- Elegant design
- Great if you don't want Google
- No Google Services mean, for the price, you'll probably want to look elsewhere (which is a shame)
- Massive hole punch
- App Gallery needs serious improvements quickly
Huawei P40 Pro Silver Frost 1102700047 review
The Huawei P40 Pro is a beauty with a fantastically impressive set of imaging credentials. Price-wise it undercuts the Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus despite offering more zoom, more pixels and a better selfie-camera.- Stunning design
- Fantastic optical zoom
- Great low light performance
- No Google services
- Premium pricing
- Huge punch hole camera
Huawei P40 Pro Silver Frost 1102700047 review
The Huawei P40 Pro offers a very compelling package of cameras, in fact, the combination of high-quality ultra-wide, wide-angle, and 5x telephoto cameras are an excellent set of cameras to have on a smartphone.- Excellent cameras
- True 5x telephoto camera
- Great screen
- with 90Hz refresh
- Impressive image stabilisation for video
- Faster fingerprint recognition
- Doesn't feature Google Play
- Your favourite apps may not be available
- 50x digital zoom is terrible
- No headphone socket
Huawei P40 Pro Deep Sea Blue 1102700048 review
The Huawei P40 Pro 5G is an impressive smartphone with a fantastic screen, but you won't find it in the US anytime soon.- Gorgeous screen
- Impressive camera night mode
- Not available in North America
- Light on storage and memory for a flagship phone
- Some camera exposure and color balance quirks
- No Google apps or Play Store
