[HUAWEI P20 PRO REVIEW]
Confession time: I never really liked Huawei’s P-series phones. They’ve never been released in the US, and they’ve usually lagged behind the company’s Mate line in features I prioritize. Well, the P20 Pro changes all that, with an insane triple-camera system that has me more excited for a phone than I’ve been since the Lumia 1020 back in 2013. It’s still not slated for sale in the USA, but this time, that wasn’t going to stop me. Join me for the MrMobile edition of the Huawei P20 Pro review!

[ABOUT MRMOBILE'S HUAWEI P20 PRO REVIEW]
MrMobile's Huawei P20 Pro Review was produced following 30 days with a P20 Pro review device (model CLT-L29) provided by Huawei. The device was tested on T-Mobile US in the United States, TiM in Rome Italy, and SK Telecom in Seoul and Jeju Island, South Korea.

[@tauhidsahadat]

Now this is a proper review... You go deep into nearly all of main features of the product... Very nice review...

[@GanDtech]

Tauhid Sahadat MrMobile has been the top reviewer ever since Pocketnow

[@Fujiwara.Takumi1]

Then you haven't seen Juan Bagnell. Camera in depth review JB and then Mr Mobile

[@bobzsq]

Much better review than MKBHD

[@linusmlgtips2123]

bobby Yeah. He skipped over so much of the phone.

[@yolobri5]

bobby he missed a lot of stuff

[@Ali___]

bobby remember when mkbhd used to do proper reviews? Before he instead focused on making it look like a Hollywood production

[@afnaanomerkhan5844]

Yol

[@parishsirius]

MKBHD used to be a great reviewer. Now he just glosses everything pixel does.

[@nayairMalik]

Micheal is the only Fisher who never click'bait'

[@shawtmanXR]

nayair Malik lol up

[@MaxPanic]

Clever :)

[@NGameReviews]

Thanks for the review Mr. Fisher! I feel like most videos have neglected talking about some of cool features of the camera module. But you didn't neglect it. Great work.

[@TheFalseHuman]

TheNickle but you didn't*

[@NGameReviews]

TheFalseHuman but he did. Most reviewers (not naming names) barely talk about the camera, the zoom, how 'binning' works', the night mode et cetera. And the photo samples are pretty good as well.

[@TheFalseHuman]

TheNickle you say how most reviewers neglects certain aspects of the phone. Then you said that this reviewer did as well. What you should have said is *didn't. This would imply that the reviewer *did* talk about those aspects and didn't neglect those features. Right idea, just wrong word choice. Unless I'm making a fool of myself here with English lol

[@NGameReviews]

TheFalseHuman oooh you were correcting my spelling mistake. I thought you disagreed with what I said. Thanks for pointing it out.

[@slimstrait780]

TheNickle Only thing Mr.Mobild forgot to mention was that the finger print sensor can be used as navigation to gain screen realestate

[@zunairmushtaq5888]

I've seen all the p20 review videos. Yours, as always is THE best!! Wishing you get 1 million subscribers this year.

[@hebatallahhassan1489]

You’re easily my favorite tech reviewer on KZbin. The effort you put into your script, the entertaining voiceover, the vocabulary you use (just well-chosen & well thought-out words), and simply how smart you are are all factors that make it more baffling for me that you aren’t at one million subscribers yet. I’ve been a huge fan since you were with Pocket Now, and I sincerely wish you THE BEST.

[@SeedubsMedia]

So cool to see a review instead of a race to be first spec read out. Thanks Mr fisher

[@T3CHGY007]

That 1020 cameo has got me right in the feels!

[@kevinv.5961]

tech guy same

[@GC3000a]

Great vid as always Michael. That camera looks insane! And the color too 👌🏻

[@dr.coconut]

Love your vids. I always come here first for reviews, and love everything you produce.

[@TheMrMobile]

Thanks very much!

[@saurabh7813]

MrMobile [Michael Fisher] Been a big fan of u sir. Always love Ur content & cinematography 👌🏻. I keep new video of ur review for almost 15 days in my phone until I get tired of watching it again n again, honestly. Love ur work sir 👌🏻

[@linuslee6314]

Now THAT is a camera. The low light mode is damn impressive, and I love the detail that comes with those merged pixels. I also appreciate that you shout out some other reviews and opinions at the end! You should keep that for other videos.

[@roshanali4307]

Your voice, narration and video making is always unmatched.

[@shera7291]

Finally after many teasers... the p20 review is here... its owsm to see you!!

[@lifeandjeevan]

Great video, keeping doing these awesome reviews, they looks beautiful and stunning.. You definitely deserve more subscribers than you're at... And never missed your video.. Not a single one

[@Simoneister]

I so glad you focused on the night mode and zoom, so many reviewers seem to skip over them, and they really are impressive.

[@younashadi3138]

Simoneister EMUI is enough to steer me away from this otherwise great phone.

[@anjanpratapsingh727]

younus hadi Bro one thing I can guarantee you that EMUI is better than Samsung and LG skins

[@parishsirius]

The only deal breaker for me is the headphone jack. I'm not really into stock android. That really feels boring to me. All my life i have been using custom roms with tons of customization.

[@younashadi3138]

What? do samsung and LG skins copy ios in every aspect? emui is a miserable skin, that wants to roll with the big boys. Its so pathetic, apps crash all the time, the notifications are a mess, Ram management sucked on the mate 10 pro for me. I'd rather spend a 100$ more and buy a real iPhone.

[@rajsatraroxor9603]

younus hadi really app crashes in Mate 10 pro? did you really use it? I never felt in my Mate 9, its 1 and half year old, amd runs smoothly, got stable Oreo in January, 2018. Its battery life is amazing, nd its EmUi just gets better by time, it adjusts itself as per our usage of some apps, it utilizes its resources to most used apps and so on, its not perfect, but its good enough for every day tasks.

[@aliciawalmsley2014]

Great video so your pixel 2 is your go to for pictures. So would the pixel 2 be your daily carry as well. Or do you use a different phone for your daily carry?

[@Riccardo_Mori]

Excellent work as usual, Mr Fisher! Having little time to watch KZbin videos, I must select my subscriptions carefully. Your reviews are concise yet not superficial. This way I feel I can keep up with the mobile tech news without having to follow dozens of other KZbinrs. Thank you for your quality work. :-) Cheers!

[@ll0191]

I've been waiting for your P20 pro review. As always! Great review :)

[@iant93893]

I absolutely adore your reviews. Keep it up!

[@dudefx6843]

the quality of the content on your channel is second to none. I am astonished by the fact that the no. of subscribers are so less. man u will be no.1 one day. all the best!!!

[@luisminervinovlog330]

awesome way to asure we make it to the end. you just keep making them fresh and special. Hats off Mr Mobile.

[@UffeErupLarsen]

You're 2,000 subscribers short of the magic 600,000 line. Well done and well-deserved, MrMobile. I love your reviews - always detailed, well-scripted, honest and a pure joy to watch. Thank you! 😊😎 Now let's go for 1 Million mark. 👍

[@AdilHusain]

Ur videos are a treat to watch . I can sit with a popcorn and start watching ...such is the awesomeness of your videos .

[@kyshark1]

The only tech reviewer I would listen to and take advise from! Amazing review, great narration... And a pleasure to watch!

[@mithun.makar.001]

You deserve 1 million subscribers man! The quality of the video is dope 👍

[@kevisakhrie4665]

the absence of a shutter button is indeed a bummer

[@ezpz46]

yeah, love my Xperia Z4 for that. Wish more companies would include the button

[@Bobbylim323]

teru faye there was an xperia z4?

[@alemkalender]

Hitler is actually a cat do you live under a rock or something?

[@rahuldhakne8577]

In many markets it was z3+

[@NonsensicalSpudz]

yeah z3+/z4 depending on location

[@binayashrestha4131]

your choice of music is dope. always love the way you present.

[@nikolagvozdenovic940]

IDK how I was not subscribed :O I watch your videos often. I don't know from where is the most of your audience but even if this phone is not coming to the US, it comes all over the world so we need your reviews . Keep up the good work!

[@AjayV84]

Great review as always! Love the practice of crediting the other reviewers. Presentation right up there :)

[@uniqhnd23]

Have been waiting for this review for so long haha!

[@venkatkyasa]

You are authentic and awesome content creator in the world. We love your work and the way you explain stuff with excellent comparisons

[@thecliffold5879]

Mr. Mobile is the only youtube I click like before I watch it because I know it's nothing short of great! Another great review!!

[@hemantbubna]

This video was straight up 🔥🔥 I have seen many youtubers with brilliant videography but none come close to your delivery and script 🙌👏

[@GeorgeTengTV]

Most informative review of this device thusfar! Had no idea the mind behind the imaging sensors at Huawei also worked on the Lumia 1020; would love to see a shoot-out between current-gen phones, and that previous monster... Please make it happen, Mr. Mobile!

[@TheMrMobile]

The AA piece I reference at the end does a fantastic job of that. And thanks!

[@aditkoel]

gold standard of a tech review and reviewer, Godspeed MrMobile!

[@justinegatchalian8408]

Congrats😉, You've won a new Subscriber. I loved your videos♡♡♡

[@abuosaidaltamimy4057]

i already watched a lot of reviews for this phone but i cant miss yours .

[@sanjulamadurapperuma3927]

Awesome review Micheal! This is serious stuff right there. Keep it going!

[@Conceptcreator]

awesome review as always!! Great camera, but for me a bit sharp? But yeah, p20 pro has great camera, but misses key features like a simple headphone jack and MicroSD, that's just a no go... also the notch.. even when you "hide" it you can still see it..

[@shawnyoung2963]

Hey bud would you know if it's better to get the dual or single Sim version I'm using tmo an wanted to Know if it had 4glte

[@runnerup9786]

Good review @MrMobile.... I do miss your more detailed reviews...

[@Cashman94]

I really liked the review. If the company’s main focus for the phone is camera, you completely reviewed their camera and then the usual pieces of a phone review. Amazing work!!!

[@okhiriaonobhamiukor3845]

Your best review yet. Keep it up!

[@achraftahir]

Beautiful review as always Michael !

[@DebraDukes]

Michael Absolutely love the Review can't get over those pic's. Thanks so much for sharing Deb. 👌👍

[@Ahmad-ep6sl]

You know since the p20 pro launched and I comment on every video you have just for the review you amazing reviewer thanks

[@Kushpeshin]

Great review. Though I'm curious, would you ever do a review redo of the mate phones? The main thing I'd want to know how the performance ages given Huawei says that performance should be retained.

[@mayureshpatilindia7594]

I never saw shout outs ever man your AWESOME!

[@rlcenizal6648]

I currently own a note 5. Planning to buy p20 pro but would you suggest me to wait for note 9 or the next iphone or p20 pro is a good buy right?

[@Lostintheriot6]

Not the first review, but it's definitely a quality one! Also nice to know you've used the phone longer than a week time frame so you get a better feel for the phone and it's quirks. Awesome job and thanks for every review you put out!

[@hectorm1284]

I love this man's videos more than any other reviewer 👏

[@ryanpaja4091]

Hi sir. If you're an average mobile photographer and using the older HW phone like the mate 9, is it a good decision to opt for an upgrade to this or not? Thank you

[@MobileLegendFans]

Quality content like ever .. always the best review

[@leaf4267]

I like the way u review phones which is easy to understand and clearer compares to others

[@grom5756]

The best reviews you can find. Period. Mr Fo.. Fisher

[@pratiknagpure]

Mr. Mobile..Big Fan of ur work..!! Best Script, best Cinematography, everything in ur reviews is way better than others'.. U truly deserve way more than a million subscribers.. All d best to get there soon.. 👍👍 Keep making us 'Mobile'..!! 🙂🙂

[@RAJR595]

Love ur review .. thanks!! Ur the best in the review business! ;D

[@salvi016]

you ever consider doing throwback reviews? your reviews of the dell phone and the htc hd2 on pocket now were so good. i miss you reviewing older hardware in your unique style maybe do the htc one m7 since its going on 5 years old now or the iphone 5s as its still completely usable to this day (i know this because its my daily driver)

[@brianroberge4226]

Always appreciate a WP reference. Still use my 1020 and 930 semi-regularly.

[@GanDtech]

Always looked to you as the best reviewer ever since Pocketnow. Great review👌🏻

[@cream9292]

Hey, if huawei decided to put the front cam in the bottom bezel, and drop the home button, put the fingerprint sensor under the display and go full Mi-Mix on the front of this phone while keeping all the internals and rear cam intact, would you buy it for yourself??

[@hujowany]

How do you feel about the connection indoors while on LTE. I read that the pro doesn't support two bands from T-Mobile. One that offsets heavy traffic and the other that helps with indoor connectivity.

[@danielfibikar1200]

Great job Michael. Your review Is TOP.

[@TechLineHD]

Superb review!

[@user-rn3uy9un9x]

Hey, I know you are a reviewer

[@rico4you]

Michael you did an Ultra Full Pixel review reviewing all points. Awesome. Btw here in Spain P20 Pro comes with a free Huawei 360 degree camera.

[@geloukoy2373]

I really love your music intro in every video

[@sharryPB26]

Hi mrmobile can u tell us abt ur gear pls which camera u used??

[@artemis428]

Hmmm, showing off the KZbin Play Button huh! In-depth and unbiased review as always. 👌

[@TheMrMobile]

Showing off how gold it isn't. :) PLS LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE

[@teleringdataspesialisten1869]

I dunno he seems to really hate the software, I personally do prefer the Blackberry launcher on any device even the Nokia 3(stock Android device) & honor V9 Play but yeah other than that he does great reviews, still wonder why he never say anything bad about Samsung software it is horrible. :(

[@artemis428]

I'm a long time subscriber of your channel, Micheal ;)

[@6Eternal9]

Hi it's mid of 2018 and I really would like to buy LG G6 which is mid budget phone that I can afford , so is it good still to buy in 2018?

[@suavAerials]

Love that sesame ring on your finger. I have one too...although I have not seen anyone else in Boston wear one. Its the coolest thing.

[@Shao526]

What's the bright wallpaper used on the Pixel 2 XL towards the end?

[@uditverma2749]

Man, Your Videos! 🔥🙌

[@shashankvittal1938]

That "MOO point" reference though😄 Great review as always!!

[@TheMrMobile]

It's like a cow's opinion; it doesn't matter.

[@ThEASbO]

Amazing review. I got the P20 and its everything you said it is. I just use it for the stills camera.

[@blackassassin8900]

Is there any overheating while gaming on p20pro?or using desktop mode?

[@PolloDeGomaConPolea]

amazing video quality! congratulations!

[@rexicola5638]

Finally a real reviewer here . Keep the good work !

[@MoeSalamaIbrahim]

My favourite tech narrative sound since Pocketnow. Good job, mate.

[@SirajKhan-gw5yq]

if you want to buy best camera phone so which one you buy becuase i want to buy best camera phone should i go for p 20 pro or either i should go pixel 2 xl or i should wait untill google launch pixel 3 please reply me

[@eliebader1]

Your vids are long even though I cannot but watch them till the end without being bored :)

[@merc722]

Getting better than MKBHD

[@yolobri5]

What's that live wallpaper @6:37

[@kylenetherwood8734]

Your camera reviews have gotten good

[@JibaroTech]

That Westworld title heheheh

[@alanroycetizon3501]

JibaroTech glad i wasnt the only one who noticed

[@robsfungaming9722]

It would be nice to see a review after a few software updates if there is any improvements. Choosing between the p20 pro or the one plus 6.

[@nothingworthy8248]

How did you manage to get the pixel icon pack

[@cooliipie]

Currently the best and most detailed reviewer

[@amolghodke]

Wonderful review ... Quick question where do you get these wonderful background music scores?

[@TheMrMobile]

Thanks. Music is always in the description!

[@amolghodke]

MrMobile [Michael Fisher] Oops ..sorry for stupid question

[@TheMrMobile]

Not your fault; KZbin makes the description basically invisible. :)

[@MerrittCluff]

Always great balanced and thoughtful reviews with a little humour added. I hear complaints that Huawei phones don't last? Any thoughts?

[@Highgear145]

Still can't get a clear pic of Bigfoot

[@uisamu]

Torrey Ellison lmao

[@anasmohammed2961]

Very clean review. Thank you Mr. Fisher

[@lakshaybahl1327]

I first like Micheal's video and then watch it , Mr.Mobile is Love

[@TheCapedCoconut]

Have you noticed any screen dimming? There's some sort of bug that slightly adjusts the display brightness even if automatic is turned off, depending on the lighting conditions. Great review as always.

[@Krishnakumar-wl7ih]

Everyone's review take forever to reach the camera. You started off with the thing that matter. Awesome review. Awesome reviewer... 👍

[@sjefsviking]

I broke my google pixel 2 (luckily it was insured) so now I have to replace it. Not sure if I should get a new pixel 2, wait for the pixel 3 to arrive in Norway or get a P20 Pro. I like the size of the pixel 2 as it fits my hand really well. But I'm very impressed with the P20 Pro camera. Any suggestions?

[@sumitraj152]

Wow..Mr. mobile has now taken the throne of detailed review..!

[@FarhadMasum]

I have a pixel 2. Thanks for putting my mind at ease.

[@Elee757]

Hello. What's that white wall paper on the pixel??

[@michaelcastillo19]

The King is pushing 600K subs. Lets go

[@CEKROM]

1:53 I like your *background* *informations* =D
