Honestly, that depends on you what model were you thinking for Huawei model? I'm currently using a P30 pro I love it's the last model that has full GMS support. I have a P40 pro on order and I can't wait only drawback it has no GMS supported but have tons of alternatives to installing apps either with their APP Gallery (still growing) or Peta search. You can also get apps on APk Pure. If you don't mind sideloading apps then go ahead with the Huawei P40 series. But if you're totally concern and want to get Huawei P30 pro is your safest bet. I personally don't care about GMS. Gmail works with other email apps, google maps from all the search I found still works even if you sideload it, I believe gboard, google duo still works. The only ones that for sure won't work are google photo (photo storage no biggie), google assistant, google home and google pay. If you really need those you can actually install it on the P40 there are plenty of people that shows you how to do it on Youtube and it works. Only trouble is you need to do it on every update from what I hear. Huawei, has their own assistant celia which works the same as google's assistant. Give it sometime in a year or 2 people will have more choice when it comes to the app store. No matter how people look at it Huawei still running on Android O.S really it's not a huge difference only thing you're really missing is google play (developers only support android and apple because everyone uses one or the other) Since Huawei is still android os Developers can still upload their work and put it on the App gallery (they're offering more money than both google and apple so I can see them uploading their app on there as well just more profit for them. Soon App gallery will grow by the millions. Also, pricing is more affordable I use to have Samsung I changed to Huawei cause I found Samsung too expensive now, and really they're not really innovating when it comes to their cell phones. Huawei is always improving their phones when it comes to their camera, if that's what your looking for? Otherwise, it's just another cell phone.

My problem is my phone is my camera and my phone. I want my phone to connect to my Chromebook and my Google Home Mini. I like putting an address in my phone when I'm out and about and getting home to find it's already on my Chromebook and my Windows Desktop.

I'm still enjoying my Huawei P30 Pro but my next phone will have GMS.

I love my P40 Pro. Battery Life is amazing! Camera is amazing with so many great features. I've never really used slow motion on any phone before because it was rubbish but the P40 Pros is unbelievable. I'm not having any problems using my gmail email or calander etc. I've always been a onedrive user rather than google photos and auto upload to onedrive works great. You also have Huawei Cloud to upload photos too if you're not an ms office user and have onedrive storage for days lol. Petal Search is a real winner as it makes it easy to find most apps without many problems. If you have any particular questions feel free to ask them and ill do my best to help you out.
