So I was on the fence about buying into the Huawei P40 Pro and I asked some opinions (https://forums.androidcentral.com/a...ould-i-take-plunge-p40-pro-2.html#post6809579), I decided to give it a try and thanks to everyone who helped with that.
Now I am back to tell you my experience and answer any questions anyone might have in my place, so here goes.
I got my phone this weekend (through Three here in the UK) on a contract with unlimited data. Prices have definitely gone up since 2 years ago, but I understand, I got a more "premium" experience from the moment I opened the box. The phone looks beautiful (got the silver one) and it feels really nice in the hand, if I had to described it would be "if velvet were solid".
I quickly brought over my Apps and data and everything else through Huawei's Phone clone, which is way faster than I remember from last time, since my 100GB of data came across in around 10-15 min (kind of impressed already).
After that it was done, I starting using it and I honestly could not tell what was different, it definitely is still android but everything had a "refreshed" look, also talk about "refresh", the screen is GORGEOUS, I find myself just mesmerized by how fluid everything is.
I was able to bring 100% of what I was using on my P20 PRo with GMS onto the P40 PRo, between Phone clone/petal search and now I started using Aptoide (third party app market). I am aware this might not be the case for everyone, but so far I am happy with HMS devices. I still a got 2 weeks to try it and report with any issues I might have encountered.
Let me know if anyone wants to find out more.
