If like me you've currently got an LG or Samsung (currently have an S9+) but are tempted by the Mate 20 Pro, there are a few things I think you'll miss, which I'm noticing after 2 days of getting the Mate 20.
Always on Display - sure it's got one, but IMO not as good as Samsung. You can't customise the look, not a massive deal. BUT, no third party app notifications on the AOD, like WhatsApp or Nest. I find being able to see what notifications I've got just by glancing at the screen very useful, at my desk at work for instance.
Lock screen notifications - so they disappear once you've unlocked the screen, never to be seen again, a Huawei feature apparently. I can get used to this, but I selected the option to unlock on face recognition without having to swipe first - meaning I'll rarely see those notifications (as it unlocks so bloody quickly). I've gone back to the swipe to unlock option so at least I get to read on the lock screen before it detects my face and unlocks. Not bad, just different.
Rear Cameras - I missed the wide angle from my LG G6 since upgrading to the S9+, so was excited to see this on the Mate 20, along with all the other modes. But although the photos seem to have better colour on the Mate 20 Pro (the S9 always ends up a bit yellow unless you have a lot of light), the video is not as good. It's choppy and not as clear, bit surprised after all the positive reviews I've read. Don't get me wrong, it's good but I prefer video on the Samsung.
Front camera - what's with the skin smoothing, it's too much! Can take very detailed shots but applies way to much beautifying!
Email App - so the default LG one was never that great, but Samsung's default mail app is actually pretty good. Surprised to see no push notifications for Gmail on the Huawei app, Hotmail has it though. Will have to go back to a 3rd part app like Bluemail, despite security concerns.
That's all so far, loving every other aspect of the phone. The under display fingerprint reader isn't really reliable enough to use on its own, but face unlock is very good thankfully. Still a cool feature though and nice to be able to unlock on a table without picking it up or hovering my face awkwardly above the phone
Also, the screen is lovely, cooler whites then Samsung which I prefer and brighter too. Sound isn't quite as loud as the S9+. Oh, and the phone seems ridiculously fast!
In summary, the featureless always on display, shaky video and selfie skin smoothing is making me consider selling the Mate 20 Pro and sticking with my S9+. Perhaps the points I've mentioned won't bother you, but perhaps worth knowing before you pull the trigger on the most expensive Android phone yet!
