Huawei P40 review

 

The compact flagship - it's a niche fewer dare to explore, no matter potential or demand. Sony has given up on the Compact series, unfortunately, and the...

Good-looking and compact body; splash resistant.

It's expensive and lacks too many feature the Pro model gets.

We don't think that Huawei did right by cutting so many features from its non-Pro flagships especially in times where the Google situation puts them at a disadvantage in the western markets. So until the P40 gets a solid price cut, we don't think it...

Huawei P40 review: too good to fail even without Google?

 

The Huawei P40 has the difficult task of showing that a future without Google is possible, but also that of succeeding its excellent predecessor, the P30.

A very nice OLED screen ; A "compact" format and matte glass back ; The camera, especially the zoom ; Good in-game performance ; Solid battery life ; EMUI 10.1

Lack of Google services ; The AppGallery catalog is poor ; No 90Hz ; No wireless charging ; No IP68

Too big to fail? Huawei certainly is but its Huawei P40 is not yet good enough without Google in my opinion. Yet it has almost everything else to please. The fairly compact and above all very neat design really appealed to me. The display is also very...

Huawei P40 Review | Trusted Reviews

 

P40 review: It undercuts most other comparable phones on price, but how does the Huawei P40 stack up when it comes to features and performance?

Excellent camera;Really nice size if you don't want a huge phone;Impressive battery life;At £699, it's 5G without breaking the bank

Lack of Google means it not for everyone;AppGallery needs a lot of work;Missing some big flagship features

Huawei P40 initial review: The compact almost-flagship?

 

Huawei's latest P-series is here, and it comes with better hardware than ever. But will the lack of Google make this impossible to recommend?

Compact and premium design ; Camera system seems really good ; Screen is vibrant

Dual camera cutout on the screen is too big ; No wireless charging ; No Google Services (no Play Store) makes some apps unusable

The Huawei P40 - on first impressions - seems like a perfectly good piece of hardware. The camera system looks really promising, and the general performance should be really good, but it is placed in an awkward position by a number of factors.

Huawei P40 review

 

Anything but entry-level

Best in class camera ; Solid design ; Great performance

No Google support ; No wireless charging ; 60Hz screen

A great phone that’s hampered by Huawei’s Google restrictions; irrespective, the Huawei P40 is without a doubt, the best camera you can get for the price.
