THANK GOD you review this phone! I wanted you to review the p20 pro display calibration because yesterday I was on notebookcheck dot com and read the display review and they said it's on par as the iPhone x display calibration or a little better. Great timing on this upload Erica!
Kudos to you Erica for reviewing this phenomenal device. I’m loving this phone, especially the handheld night mode! Look forward to seeing your full review!
You always have unique findings! That's what distinguish you from the rest of KZread

agree on that, didn't found anything so far about the black clipping so far, something that would bother me if I bought a samsung.
Love your reviews! Always so informative, and I like that you compare it to the s9+, as that's what I am using now. Thank you
Love how you go deep in the specks in the phone, I’m like that too when I’m purchasing a phone! It helps a lot of people too!
Hello Erica, nice review. Your way doing the videos makes you my favorite tech youtuber :)
Best unboxing/review. You are the only one mentioning the notification led which is important for some people.
I would love to know the following in your full review: 1. Does EMUI skin affect the performance when it comes to RAM management and overall use of the device 2. What situations when doing nighttime photography does it excel, and when does it not do so? 3. How accurate is the screen when it comes to colour reproduction, accuracy, and vibrancy? Looking forward to the full review
Just love the way how you review the display because bad display really is a deal breaker for me too. I subscribed your channel because these display reviews.
Having the finger print sensor on the front is a better way in my opinion. I don't have to bring up the phone to unlock when it is resting on the table in order to read incoming notifications.

I find it ok having the finger print sensor on the front with P20. I guess it is up to individual preferences. However, for myself I will prefer conveniences over cosmetic looks. Also, we still have no idea how good on-glass finger print sensor are at the moment. If users can accept the weird looking notches on top of the screens nowadays, I don't see why they cannot put up with the finger print sensor on the front. Just my 2 cents.

Mun Chee Hong I understand what you’re saying, but most people are using more real estate as the number 1 reason for having the notch. If that’s the case, then why have the notch in this phone because your losing real estate with the chin? Just a thought.
@chmun77
6 жыл бұрын
As much as I wish to agree with you, but having the notch is actually losing the actual real screen estate imho. For example, P20 Pro has a screen size of 6.1" diagonally - that's 155 x 73.9 x 7.8 mm (6.10 x 2.91 x 0.31 in) according to GSMArena. However, within the 6.1", only the left and right side of the notch are used for displaying status symbols. If my understanding is correct, you will "lose" the left and right areas when viewing movies, gaming, etc in full screen, unless you prefer to have the movie or game clipped by the notch area. So, in the end do we actually still have a full 6.1" of usable area? That's something to consider. However, we are not losing any real estate with physical finger print senor at the chin area because that area is never considered as part of the displaying screen estate in the first place.
I'm definitely picking up the p20 pro Erica cant wait for your full review I'm living in orange county calif
You are honestly the only tech reviewer that pronounces Huawei the correct way haha props for that detail!
It is definitely an amazing phone for any android user out there, Huawei products have made leaps and bounds in terms of their quality in the last few years.
been watching your phone reviews over any other i really love that you get into detail about things that others dont and i am not from the US some of your audience is from europe too! haha still undecided between this and the one OnePlus 6 x.x

Hope to see this channel get 1million subs soon,,,great content
I’m loving this phone. Was thinking of importing it but I’m hesitant to because imported phones for the most part tend to not play well with the cellular bands from the US. I’m curious to hear your experience on this.
Eagerly waiting for your invaluable review of LG G7 ThinQ... When can I expect to receive it??
Love your vids Erica ❤️
cool huawei p20 pro cellphone did it work good erica and do you still have this cellphone
Thank you Erica... Was actually waiting for your opinion as I'm considering this phone... 😜 😎
Thanks for reviewing this phone, huawei really did something special with the cameras.
Great review Erica!
Hey Erica , I wonder when r u going to make in depth review for the p20pro? it is already 2 months since this unboxing video I hope u will make it soon
Erica. What do you do with all these phones? Do you sell them?
I've found the sound from USB C to wired headphones really bad, when headphones perform brilliantly on other 3.5MM jack phones...can you investigate?
Great review Erica! I just ordered one in Canada. I can hardly wait. I think that Huawei got it right with this phone
I disagree. I love the idea of having the fingerprint reader at the front. I have the S8 + and I really want to unlock my phone without lifting it off my work desk, and nope I dont use the face unlock mechanisms due to eye damage scares listed on the web. Yeah I fancy this P20 plus phone.
Is the always on display on settings ? If yes, does it show the missed calls, messages and app notifications? Thanks for your time!
Shoot I don't know. I might save up and get this bad boy off eBay around the end of the year or something. Plus that huge 4000mAh battery too? Yes please.

I usually have 30 percent or something still, after the whole night and I use Bluetooth 24/7 (smart watch and headphones when studying or at work)
Great video.. p20pro looks grt price in india is its more expensive than s9 plus
Thanks for the review Erika, very much appreciated. My question about the mobile would be about the fonts how big in can be regarding reading notifications and the menus? Does it have a magnify glass sort of feature like other mobiles? Also does it have night screen mode or something to ease eye strain during the night? Thank you.
Does the sharpening happen even with Master AI turned off? How long do 40mpx RAW images take to save? How do you find the forced beauty mode which apparently can not be turned off even when sliding the scale down to zero?
Ooohhh with the Sprint Tmobile merger possibly in the works, I would love to be able to get this device a couple months down the line. I love the camera but I won't switch carriers for it (I'm on Sprint right now). Glad to hear you're getting good speeds on their LTE bands.
I would like to see you test the Honor view 10. It's a great phone I would like to know what your thoughts are. Your one of my top phone reviewers.
How has the bluetooth connectivity been to things like headphones and the car? Any small annoyances?
What dialer are you using with the Nova launcher, or does it automatically changethe icon to look like stock Android?
Nice review... I think that the US is trying to control the market, like they did with the Xperia's fingerprint sensor before... Speaking of which, you're so late to XZ2... When are you going to review it, Erica?
Why didn't you get the Purple gradient version? Hows the battery life?
I find setting the colour profile to standard gives the photos a flatter/neutral look that many north americans prefer. But it is nice to be able to choose between that and vibrancy that's added automatically without having to spend the time in post-processing.
Since i have it i can tell that there is an update missing on your device. With the update the night mode would be one of the first modes and not under "more". Go to system update and search after the complete package. I also can tell that the camera does that oversharpening thingy sometimes. Thats why i shoot only in 40MP without AI. Pictures come out very natural and not sharpened. Please test this :)

did this work on US network? it is available for sale via amazon so was just wondering if it would work for AT&T.
Apparently there is some pretty aggressive "beautifying" happening even if you disable it in settings. How do you find the portraits look? Does shooting in manual work around this?
Is the kirin 970 chipset phone worth in 2018 along side those 845 snapdragon phones?
Erica. How would you say this phone's camera setup compares to the Pixel 2 / XL?
Can you still see that pentil fizz on the display like on the Mate 10 pro? Hope your feeling better? Kind regards Richard U.K
I've never used a Huawei phone but when I was in Japan last year my friend who lives there had one. I'm not sure what model it was but it was huge compared to the s7 Edge I was using at the time. It was gold colored if that means anything. It looked like a pretty nice phone if you don't mind one the size of a small tablet.

Hi i just bought a P20Pro - yes late to the party! My question is can you turn off the automatic focusing on pics?? Great vids btw.
Erica, when is the full review coming up for huawei p20 pro?
Please have also comparisons with the iPhoneX along with pictures and videos in the review since Huawei's P series tends to be look alikes of iPhones ever since Huawei's last iterations of it's P series, thanks.😁
There's some reviews from user that when you want to groupfie (more than 6 people) in portrait mode it will hang/stuck.. can you test it?
Are there any top apps that are incompatible with the phone? You said something about how the Huawei P20 pro doesn't support HD Netflix support can you elaborate?
Is the notch completely hided when u turn it off in the settings? As it's amolet
I don't understand why unboxings are so popular, especially with phones. The content in the box is near identical even across brands, so there isn't even a surprise waiting. It is the fingerprint sensor on the front that is attracting me to the P20 Pro. My phone sits on my desk and I like to be able to unlock it without picking it up or hunching over it for face unlock.

The example about the shadow clipping with a stat of sorts (6: 34) shows the Huawei does do more detail up to further into the dark, but the way the Samsung's shows what IS visible is a thousand times superior! Also, Erica might not like a fp scanner below the screen on the front, but most people dislike it when it's at the back.
I love that background, I have that as a poster in my room
That "bye" at the end got me so good 😁😁
I just snagged one of these from my carrier (ah the joys of living north of the 49th parallel). Going to unbox soon and charge it up, looks like a decent phone for the money.
hey erica can you check the antena reception who has better p20pro or s9 plus?
Excellent and Honest Review
Great review! I prefer the fingerprint sensor on the front as it means I don't have to pick it up to use it when it's on a desk and the areas beside the fingerprint reader allow you to pick the phone up without touching the screen
Where did you find that screen saver
What do you think between the s9, iphone x and p20 PRO
I really love your videos...true quality
Wat a beauty phone at your hand. Wahhhh.. How many sim can put in huawei 20pro?
what is the launcher you used?
I noticed there are two speakers on the bottom of the phone. Left side is not working but the right one is. Is the left one a display only or my phone broken? Lol
Tell me please which phone to buy Samsung Galaxy s9 plus or Huawei p20 pro
Will you be trying out the Xiaomi Mi Mix 2s any time soon?
Aren't they available unlocked in the US at Best Buy?
hello Erica. Thank you for your nice review. i want to ask you one question. i want to buy new phone and when i buy i will use long time 2-3 years. so this is the question. p20 pro & s9 + or ? which one do you suggest. i like take photo. if you reply me i will be happy... thank you again Erica Griffin
what camera do you use to record your Review p20 pro?
Bought my P20 pro yesterday after 3 years of intensively using the P8. Huawei has bren making amazing phones, my P8 works as the first day i bought it and i expect nothing less from the P20 Pro.
Pros and cons with everyday usage between S9 Plus and P20 Pro? Notifications, battery etc?
Which do you prefer the black or twilight?
Hi Erica! I heard you used Oneplus. I'm looking for a more affordable phone which is comparable to the samsungs and iphones out there. Do you think oneplus6 will be a good alternative? I read that it will have the 845 snapdragon. So will that do the trick?
Can I ask what launcher you are using? Thanks
No ear phone Jack or SD card slot? 128gb is plenty tbh thou, hmmm 🤔 I'm using Huawei P9 so I was thinking of upgrading to P20 as I love the Huawei brand since getting the P9, but after this I may hang fire. Looking forward to hearing more of your thoughts with it
How many variants are there? Seems only two, and only difference is memory - 128 vs 256gb.
Yay" I love "Stranger Things" also, great series. The film "The Summer of 84" is really cool also if you get the chance to watch it. Regards the phone and Huawei, in my opinion they are really impressive when it comes to producing budget and mid rangers which are just amazing value for the $ and they can not really be competed with in that regard. This being said I would not even consider something like this P20 Pro when you can purchase a One+ 6T for much less money, quite a significant amount of money actually. For me a camera can only bring me so much and it is the other features which interest me more. Great review Erica, thanks again!!
How does this camera compare to the iPhone X?
Wow, notifications are all out of wack. YT just told me this was a new video from you. That's ok, better late than never heh!
try some really long exposure shots with a tripod, I want to see results for that, from what I've seen so far no other phone can touch it on camera if it is utilized properly, I'd say Pixel 2 is the closest experience in picture quality
is the charger port and headphone jack waterproof??
Best phone I've ever had.
Erica, how much is the phone?
What is the launcher that you are using
At 9:09, how to do that notification swipe down shortcut?
It’s nice for coming with cover case but I won’t remove the screen protector. 😑😑😑
we have that here in the philippines ... i like the camera of this phone as you video it. i guess samsung will catchup with this ericka.
