Geez I never take a camera into consideration when looking at phones. I always say stuff like "I don't care if it has a potato camera"... But those were some damn good pics in this video
I never comment on youtube videos but I just have to say, these are the reviews I look forward to the most. Actual cases where youtubers use the product for an extended period instead of just spewing out key facts and figures of which there are hundreds of videos online. Discussing even the smallest things like whether or not screen protectors work, how social media pictures may differ across devices, how the battery and camera have held up over time etc. (and finally a big youtube actually talking about glue gate) are what matters at the end of the day when using a device daily so thanks and keep up the good work!
It's taken 6 sets for me to get one that doesn't have the screen bleed issues around the edges which has been caused by the bad LG screens in the early batches. I stuck with the phone because it's amazing. Finally got a good one last Friday and fully set it up. There's little to complain about. I love EMUII! But, Huawei should have had a product recall for the screen bleed problems instead of using their customers to weadle out the bad units.
@Humam GFE I've got it, it fits in the hand very well and doesn't feel like a 7 inch phone because of how well designed it is. It's a tall phone but it's not to wide. And I also love the fact that I can stick it in my shirt chest pocket and secretly film with the wide lens
I wrote to huawei because of the gluegate problem (my phone was also affected) and they just send me a new one with the BOE Display instead of one from LG. Now I have this amazing phone with an amazing Display and no green on the edges anymore
who did you write to? what email. I issue my phone and customer care didn't care or offer solution refuse accept the phone manufactor issue.be great is they did listen
I fell absolutely in love with the phone over the past month, but now I'm happy my provider didn't have it when I wanted it. Too many units with glue gate (green would appear even after a week or two of use), almost no options for replacement (Huawei doesn't seem to be providing enough units to Telenor). One thing that's strange to me are those scratch marks "just from pockets" on a Gorilla Glass 5, while my HTC 10 with GG3 has only one scratch from my keys that were in my pocket 50% of the time in the past 2 years. So many things are inconsistent with this phone, and each YTuber has a different story. I'll just have to wait a while to connect all the dots. Thanks for the review, btw. :)
you have dodged a bullet by avoiding getting one, mine is only 2 weeks old and it took the slightest of falls onto a wooden floor and cracked the screen, even with a good case on it. £319 :-(
Watching this on my Mate 20 Pro - this thing is a beast. Your earlier videos helped me to make my final decision in time for Black Friday. Love it. Keep up the great work dude. Thanks
THANK YOU for bringing up Gluegate. Most UA-camrs have either been ignorant to it or have ignored it. It still blows my mind that Huawei has still not given any kind of statement on it. I imported mine from Singapore and Huawei told me that in order to get mine replaced I would have to send it to a friend in Singapore so they can take it to a service center because they don't do international service. SMH. Thats a shame. So don't import this phone you'll be SOL. Great video as always!
I also got mate 20 pro with greenish screen. But i already got replacement set from huawei. Screen is nice but you definitely need to have screen protector. Btw i'm coming from Note 9 to mate 20 pro for its fast charging and awesome photos
I'm so glad that You spoke about posting photos on social media issues. When I've first got my S9+, I saw that photos posted on Instagram for example looked blurry and just bad quality. Compared to my previous Huawei P9 they looked way much worse. Pics taken with a phone camera are great but those posted on social media are just worse. So to make them look more as the look on camera roll I have to adjust the ratio of them, for IG stories is 9:16 or 5:4, in Snapseed and then post the photo. It's the only way for pics to look better. Hope that It will change in the future.. I havent seen those issues with any apple devices, so... android users have hard time today.
Watching this video on my mate 20 pro...For me, no objection for this phone. I only expect the notification improvement in future updates. However after watching your video I feel that the durability may be an important factor to consider not so good or poor for my phone. I need to be careful with it.
Wouldn't u say the regular Mate 20 is a better deal? No screen issues, speaker isn't in the USB C port and battery life is still amazing. That's what I'm leaning towards at least...
I would cosinder buying the op6t instead if you're planning to go for the mate 20. The mate 20 doesn't have that much to offer. I guess it's the same price as the op6t mclaren edition?
@@alirezaeftekharzade4924 I use my phones for media and gaming. I prefer the stereo speakers over the terrible bottom firing one on the 6T. Also it has a certified splash resistance and bigger screen. And the cameras are still way better than the 6T.
First like! Hell yeah haha.. thank you for your input.. i was just about to buy one.. after this vid id say ik for sure what to expect.. still go a buy one tho haha
I just got mine around a month ago and I love how responsive it is. Something that bothers me is it doesn't have volume slider on the quick access menu since I prefer to use the slider than the volume button (I'm afraid I'm gonna break the button somehow). I'm definitely curious about their p30 pro whether it's better or worse than the mate 20 pro. Gonna watch your review of that now!
One day Cell phone company's will make a real good phone with good cameras and good software. Glass is good and not so good. We all have our own favorite part of a phone. But most new phone's are just good enough. But once in awhile the smartphone companies make something amazing.
So glad I went with the note 9 over this. Wish I had the camera and the fast charging but I haven't had a Samsung since when the s6 edge first came out and since using the note i dont think I'll ever be able to live without scroll capture, smart select and the s pen!
previous phone was S8. did not really like it cause battery life was terrible and a lot of screen burn issues. I wanted to try a different brand like apple, huawei or oppo. But there is something about Samsung phones that keeps make me buying them. Especially the note series. I cant seem to stop using that fucking amazing pen haha
@@peterambrose2148 this is my first note series I've ever had! Always said they were too big but they're really not! I usually get a new brand phone every time I get an upgrade just to keep things different. I had iPhones from the 3g to the 5sand got so bored having the same phone in a newer case i said I'd do that to mix it up. Think i will stay with the note for a while tho. Last phone I had was the Xperia xz premium and it was definitely an underwhelming experience. Different is not always better!
I actually purchased this phone for my wife in 2019 because after testing daily results from taking photos, the iPhone 11 pro max, galaxy s10 and Pixel 3 devices, photos still failed to top what this device can produce! I attribute a lot of that to software but the shots captured without editing are incredible, not to mention battery life!
Great review not a lot of reviewers are mentioning the day to day use and how the battery and charging combo actually takes the one worry out of whole day use the battery
Had a Mate 20 Pro for a week and a half before it was pickpocketed and I have to say EMUI is nowhere near the experience you can get on a OnePlus phone. I can give up the camera, infrared sensor, and all the gimmicks for a software experience that doesn't leave me feeling disappointed with my expensive investment.
Is it really that impressive? I just hear wonders about the Oneplus software. RIght now I have a Mate 10 I bought last year and I´m happy with EMUI. But when it comes to comparison I just read people trashing over EMUI and praising Oneplus software... Is there something that makes it special beyond the speed? Btw sorry for that theft... D:
I've had my Mate20Pro, 3yrs. It was $675, & an extra $600 for 3 screen replacements ltr, I now run w a $30 Spigen case. U really need a solid case & gd screen protector. Baby it. 1) Water Damage. -$200 2) LCD died. -$200 3) LCD died. -$200 I still love mine though.
Download device hw info and u will find out if urs is LG or BOE screen. LG screen are the ones that are impacted. Especially batch 43 and 51. The last 2 digits and the back of screen info. Good luck
IV had the mate 20 pro and traded it in for note 9 simply for s pen. Tbh I'm missing my mate. With a nova launcher it was unstoppable. It's certainly faster than the note , the camera is better and I think k the screen is every bit as good. I just needed the s pen otherwise I'd have stayed with the Huawei . Damn good phone. Best android, no actually the best phone available right now.
@@slandgkearth I wished I did. I was just easier swapping over. I love my note 9 but it's not as buttery smooth as the mate 20 pro or as fast. And the size of the mate is better in the hand. Both great phones but I think the mate 20 pro pips the note to better phone
Thanks for your in-depth review. I love my Mate 20, but the in screen finger print reader is a real let down for me. How have you found it, or do you use it at all?
if you are affected of gluegate, write huawei. they will send someone to your front door exchanging yours with a flawless one. even if you havent noticed that you are affected of it and it is only slightly visable it will get worser with time ongoing. after 1-2months your screen will completely shine green. i on my own was affected by this and had to wait 2 weeks until i got a new one.
Normally I'm pretty careful with phones and when I bought the mate 20pro I was extra careful with even using the case included with it yet from just the pocket it got multiple scratches even when nothing else was in my pocket so if anyone can help with the scratch problem any tips would be appreciated
The glass of the screen breaks easily. Have a look at the durability test done by Zack on his channel JerryRig Everything Huawei haven't perfected the curved glass yet. Samsung phones are better at that. Just to clarify - I am not a fan of any particular brand, I just like good phones with good features. I am using a Note 9 currently because of the notchless screen and the presence of the headphone jack. And in my opinion the screen is better overall. The cameras on the Huawei look great.
I had used the Mate 10 Pro. It was a great phone. I couldn’t wait to buy a Mate 20 Pro when it was launched. It is really a fantastic experience to use it. The fast charging, stamina, quick and smooth response and photo quality are none to second.
no, not really, but then the E.U and the U.K, will be mostly effected, which means Arun and other British and E.U UA-camrs cant post anymore videos without severe censorship, that also means that we can't really view their videos anymore too
nov 1, 2018 bought it, still alive and kickin' 🍺 really a mate!! 🤣 dont care bout emui. i love it coz it's superb fast, clear cam, long battery life, fast charging 😍
@@lazycreator7794 not because of the phones Huawei made, smart phones are not even Huawei's main business. They ban Huawei because of their 5G network systems because Cisco, Nokia and Ericsson can't compete with Huawei, and some of the them just don't wanna Huawei to dominate the global 5G markets. Even though those so called "5 eyes" countries banned Huawei, Huawei is still the No.1 network device provider in the world. Kidnapping Huawei's CFO just made them look mean and low. No worries, Huawei is doing just fine without those markets, and it is still growing very fast.
I don’t think US wants to ban huawei because Apple has a hard time the reason is that huawei may be working with the chinese government.The US wants to be safe and not to be spied by huawei.
I bought my note 8 since its release date and have been using it heavily as my daily driver with no scratches, and it only took you two months to break the screen!! WOW!!
@@ceciliasoderberg3380 Indeed, lol, I've dropped my (albeit old) iphone 7+ loads of times, traded for a H. dreading dropping that, I suspect it'll need a case lol -but then the newer iphones/sams also are glass.
Expanding the notifications on the lock-screen isn't a swipe gesture, you have to press, not swipe, the downward arrow. When unlocked, you can swipe in the notification menu. But that doesn't take away the fact it is inconsistent, but on the other hand, it can be fixed with a software update.
If you are in the UK then i would love to know why you say it comes with a clear case in the box ? it does not ! i should know as i done my own unboxing.This is also confirmed by many other UK owners. Did you get given your by Huawei ? if so then that would explain why you did,as they gave all the UK reviews ones with a free clear case to review and yet that isnt what actual UK buyers got. I know its not a big deal but just wanted to set your straight.
Today I just dropped my Mate 20 Pro in my room from one meter height. Although the ground was lamparquet (no edges, it is very smooth area) the display completely crashed. Now they want more than 300 Euro. DO NOT BUY a phone with very fragile and a very low quality screen. I am very dissappointed and angry. I will share this comment everywhere.
@@gazturabin7566 you are right, I was planning to buy a protector for any case and I was really careful about it but this is not an EGG to be broken very easily.
All phones with a glass screen can break. Glass = glass. You were simply unlucky...Drop a Samsung or iPhone and they too will break. Remember, glass = glass. There is no super glass!
@@Samosayummyyay you are completely wrong. Most of phones have good display and they do not crash easily. Moreover they claim that they use Gorilla Glass 5 for the display but I do not believe that. It seems it is very cheap one. I will pay a lot of money and someone will come to say buddy it is glass, it is normal. This is not acceptable. One question, have you ever seen drop test for Mate 20 Pro on youtube? You cannot see because it is very fragile and it is very low quality. I bought and I have regret for it.
@@Samosayummyyay my s7 edge dropped few times already. The screen never crack. The screen has corilla glass 5. The back break with the first drop. It doesnt have Corilla glass 5
Still using my mate 20 Pro, for over 2 years now & it's got the free extended warranty I claimed a while back, hopefully all will be good hopefully into 2023, any change was isn't yet broken.
Hey arun, great vid as usual. Anyways is your mate 20 pro using lg or boe panel ? Would love to know from random people as well about the experience of both panels as it would really help me decide. Thanks :)
@@Mori8636 Yes, and there are cases from every single manufacturer. Lithium-ion batteries have always been dangerous. People will always be occasionally hurt by them. Of course, the note 7 situation had a dramatically increased rate, but even Mate 20 and iPhone XS have blown up. It's rare, but not unheard of.
1:22 is a very important point many reviewers are ignorant about. Best picture quality on social media (eg Instagram) is entirely dependent on the most used device ( maybe iPhones) AND how the image quality is represented on those other devices.
See, I looked at Huawei's offerings and I went with the Mate20 X. I just don't think anyone is giving it the attention it deserves - - as I don't see it as a niche phone. I'd like to see your review of it. There is a lot with the 20X that I prefer over the 20PRO.
I seriously considered x but some major things(for me) pushed me back such as ppi(it was not enough for such a big display) ip rating(non) weight (i hold it and was considerably heavy) and not having facial recog and rear mounted fingerprint sensor. But i should give its points with big display 3.5mm jack and 5000 mah battery
@@cagrkocaslan5783 Most of what you mentioned didn't matter to me except the ip rating. These speakers are like having a small portable bluetooth speaker in my pocket. Lol.
I know they could be totaly fine to you but i listed them cuz they could be the reason for the phone being niche and not mainstream. Otherwise its a really good option for some...

rip huawei in general... ppl are hating them cuz they are too gud :
Philip Penkov write trump instead of ppl, samsung and oneplus are better tho
@@aamirali2892 how is OnePlus better? 😂😂😂
Thanks for your in-depth review. I love my Mate 20, but the in screen finger print reader is a real let down for me. How have you found it, or do you use it at all?
I'll be honest, I really wish I had stock android on my P20 Pro.
Just put custom ROMs
Glad you continue making videos!
Eyyy Nottingham gang
Where in Nottingham are you based
if you are affected of gluegate, write huawei. they will send someone to your front door exchanging yours with a flawless one.
even if you havent noticed that you are affected of it and it is only slightly visable it will get worser with time ongoing. after 1-2months your screen will completely shine green.
i on my own was affected by this and had to wait 2 weeks until i got a new one.
You are clearly very careless with your smartphones..
I'm here since u had 200k sub keep going 👍👍
Normally I'm pretty careful with phones and when I bought the mate 20pro I was extra careful with even using the case included with it yet from just the pocket it got multiple scratches even when nothing else was in my pocket so if anyone can help with the scratch problem any tips would be appreciated
Always the honest review...keep this up and we will always support you 🙏
The glass of the screen breaks easily. Have a look at the durability test done by Zack on his channel JerryRig Everything Huawei haven't perfected the curved glass yet. Samsung phones are better at that. Just to clarify - I am not a fan of any particular brand, I just like good phones with good features.
I am using a Note 9 currently because of the notchless screen and the presence of the headphone jack. And in my opinion the screen is better overall.
The cameras on the Huawei look great.
The name of the channel, he rigs EVERYTHING
Amazing work dude !! Very Accurate and realistic review !!
Arun got Huawei CFO arrested confirmed
This is not a political channal. This is tech channal
What do you mean ?
@@kasadam85 american police attested him
ali99 _ it’s a her
I had used the Mate 10 Pro. It was a great phone. I couldn’t wait to buy a Mate 20 Pro when it was launched. It is really a fantastic experience to use it. The fast charging, stamina, quick and smooth response and photo quality are none to second.
How is it 3 years later?
what's that wallpaper you have at 3:48 it's nice
Its one of the built in ones!
@@Mrwhosetheboss alright. hopefully we could get them ported to other phones soon. I like it so much
@@orionjoka4083 i have that one i could try to port em
@@orionjoka4083 just look up (insert phone name here) wallpapers and download them, its not that hard, nigga
Awesome video bro keep doing that honest reviews in the future to ❤
Will article 13 do damage to UA-cam privacy policy all over the world
no, not really, but then the E.U and the U.K, will be mostly effected, which means Arun and other British and E.U UA-camrs cant post anymore videos without severe censorship, that also means that we can't really view their videos anymore too
@@fiercelypolygons3696 thanks for your answer bro 🤗🤗
Awesome review and I love how you covered all the negatives and positives
You didn't even watch the whole video did you? 😂
What about the huawei mate 20X @Mrwhosetheboss🤔🤔🤔🤔😊
Loved the honest review ... Subscribed
Mate 20 Pro😍👍
nov 1, 2018 bought it, still alive and kickin' 🍺 really a mate!! 🤣 dont care bout emui. i love it coz it's superb fast, clear cam, long battery life, fast charging 😍
Huwaei is in serious problems all over the world.
See the news guys
because they give apple hard time, US start to be unhappy about it. as long as huawei make great phones, I don't care these political nonsense.
@@Nathan-gd6br same. Love my mate 20 pro
@@Nathan-gd6br exactly,,
Till now noone gave a fuck,coz they were on mid range but 1 great phone pissed them off and now drama begins.
@@lazycreator7794 not because of the phones Huawei made, smart phones are not even Huawei's main business. They ban Huawei because of their 5G network systems because Cisco, Nokia and Ericsson can't compete with Huawei, and some of the them just don't wanna Huawei to dominate the global 5G markets. Even though those so called "5 eyes" countries banned Huawei, Huawei is still the No.1 network device provider in the world. Kidnapping Huawei's CFO just made them look mean and low. No worries, Huawei is doing just fine without those markets, and it is still growing very fast.
I don’t think US wants to ban huawei because Apple has a hard time the reason is that huawei may be working with the chinese government.The US wants to be safe and not to be spied by huawei.
Arun, I hope ur situation can get better
Keep up the great work
Using my mate 20 pro with a LG screen and no glue gate yet.....
Have you experienced any issues with the screen yet 🤔 ???
@@user-uc6ji8jv4i nope no problems
I bought my note 8 since its release date and have been using it heavily as my daily driver with no scratches, and it only took you two months to break the screen!! WOW!!
There's an easy answer: DON'T DROP IT!!!! I've owned dozens of smartphones and never dropped any of them even once.
Whats your secret?
@@ceciliasoderberg3380 Indeed, lol, I've dropped my (albeit old) iphone 7+ loads of times, traded for a H. dreading dropping that, I suspect it'll need a case lol -but then the newer iphones/sams also are glass.
Expanding the notifications on the lock-screen isn't a swipe gesture, you have to press, not swipe, the downward arrow. When unlocked, you can swipe in the notification menu.
But that doesn't take away the fact it is inconsistent, but on the other hand, it can be fixed with a software update.
I like this phone he is best phone
*it is
If you are in the UK then i would love to know why you say it comes with a clear case in the box ? it does not ! i should know as i done my own unboxing.This is also confirmed by many other UK owners.
Did you get given your by Huawei ? if so then that would explain why you did,as they gave all the UK reviews ones with a free clear case to review and yet that isnt what actual UK buyers got.
I know its not a big deal but just wanted to set your straight.
Today I just dropped my Mate 20 Pro in my room from one meter height. Although the ground was lamparquet (no edges, it is very smooth area) the display completely crashed. Now they want more than 300 Euro. DO NOT BUY a phone with very fragile and a very low quality screen. I am very dissappointed and angry. I will share this comment everywhere.
Maybe you should buy a screenguard.
@@gazturabin7566 you are right, I was planning to buy a protector for any case and I was really careful about it but this is not an EGG to be broken very easily.
All phones with a glass screen can break. Glass = glass. You were simply unlucky...Drop a Samsung or iPhone and they too will break. Remember, glass = glass. There is no super glass!
@@Samosayummyyay you are completely wrong. Most of phones have good display and they do not crash easily. Moreover they claim that they use Gorilla Glass 5 for the display but I do not believe that. It seems it is very cheap one. I will pay a lot of money and someone will come to say buddy it is glass, it is normal. This is not acceptable. One question, have you ever seen drop test for Mate 20 Pro on youtube? You cannot see because it is very fragile and it is very low quality. I bought and I have regret for it.
@@Samosayummyyay my s7 edge dropped few times already. The screen never crack. The screen has corilla glass 5. The back break with the first drop. It doesnt have Corilla glass 5
Still using my mate 20 Pro, for over 2 years now & it's got the free extended warranty I claimed a while back, hopefully all will be good hopefully into 2023, any change was isn't yet broken.
In sweden, no case in the box :'(
Ah that's annoying - thanks for letting me know!
Same here in Ireland.. it's a shame
Same in Norway!
Same in Netherlands 😔
So basically no case for Europe
Amazing video.... Your just the very best!
Just buy a Oneplus 6T for half price with all the specs you need. I still have my Oneplus 5 and just love it.
0:39 "I'm pretty careful with my phone".....I beg to differ lol
Still Note 9 is a practical smartphone over Huawei Mate 20 pro
Chris Joseph No, Mate 20 pro too
Chris Joseph no it is not
Really tempted to buy the mate 20 pro. But I guess I'll hold out for now. Still using their mate 10 and is still pretty snappy.
This Phone would be perfect for me if it wasn't Cuz of that washed out front camera
Hey arun, great vid as usual. Anyways is your mate 20 pro using lg or boe panel ? Would love to know from random people as well about the experience of both panels as it would really help me decide. Thanks :)
This won't happen if you go back to the note 9
Lol
Or if you buy a Mate 20X :)
There’s already been a case where the note 9 combusted on a user already.
looks like Samsung is at it again..
@@Mori8636 Yes, and there are cases from every single manufacturer. Lithium-ion batteries have always been dangerous. People will always be occasionally hurt by them. Of course, the note 7 situation had a dramatically increased rate, but even Mate 20 and iPhone XS have blown up. It's rare, but not unheard of.
@@Mori8636 go eat shit somewhere else. You made this thread stink
1:22 is a very important point many reviewers are ignorant about. Best picture quality on social media (eg Instagram) is entirely dependent on the most used device ( maybe iPhones) AND how the image quality is represented on those other devices.
The photography is phenomenal but I didn’t like the software.
Hey man. Like your vids but your end music is a little loud. I'm sure your subscriber retention would be better if you fix this.
I'm sooooo 10 minutes late
i love u so much bro, it is the best smartphone review i have ever seen.
Just can't stand Huawei's software ugh
Whats bad about it
I love EMUI much better than stock android. I used the nexus 4 and nexus 6p
Cuz you suck at adapting
See, I looked at Huawei's offerings and I went with the Mate20 X. I just don't think anyone is giving it the attention it deserves - - as I don't see it as a niche phone. I'd like to see your review of it. There is a lot with the 20X that I prefer over the 20PRO.
I seriously considered x but some major things(for me) pushed me back such as ppi(it was not enough for such a big display) ip rating(non) weight (i hold it and was considerably heavy) and not having facial recog and rear mounted fingerprint sensor. But i should give its points with big display 3.5mm jack and 5000 mah battery
@@cagrkocaslan5783 Most of what you mentioned didn't matter to me except the ip rating. These speakers are like having a small portable bluetooth speaker in my pocket. Lol.
I know they could be totaly fine to you but i listed them cuz they could be the reason for the phone being niche and not mainstream. Otherwise its a really good option for some...
@@Trubyd44 but i also want to see review by aron
