Quick recap of the video:
  • Silver Frost matte finish is one of MKBHD's favorite of all kind
  • Viewing angle, colors, brightness all high-end
  • The shape of display is interesting because of the "overflow" on top and bottom (not just left and right)
  • Camera cutout in top left (includes depth sensor and infrared)
  • Fingerprint scanner doesn't seem bigger or faster although they say 30% bigger and 30% larger
  • Camera is the main focus of the phone (no pun intended)
  • Huawei trying to dethrone Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra for best camera?
  • Selfie-Camera was the most impressive because of the detail
  • 4200 mAh battery is a good look and the 40W wired AND 40W wireless charging is amazing
Conclusion:
  • Great upgrade for anyone with a 2-3 year old phone
  • Generally pretty damn impressed with the P40 Pro Specs.
  • Missing best of the best specs like 8K recording and 120Hz refresh
