thank you so much for this video! your videos are incredibly detailed -- i hugely appreciate the zoom test in video mode. the p40+ really edged out with the 3x and 10x zoom.

Thank you for a good informative video. Question: Do you think there will come a Huawei p50 pro plus, with a ultrawide lens with mor MP?

[@lltechview]

I am not sure. There are rumors that there will be a Pro Plus model. But I think the camera will not get any wider or higher megapixel count.

[@FinishingTouchVLM]

The Video the world was waiting for

[@OjiHamidin]

Awesome video as always. A very much better video quality too! Thank you so much for this clear comparison. I have a question regarding day-to-day usage of the P50 Pro Harmony OS vs a typical Android/Google usage. 1. For example, how is the App that use in-app usage of GMS? Eg: like Food ordering app that uses Google Maps. Or App that uses contact sync using Google/Gmail Address book function. 2. Does Harmony OS daily usage is seamless or without major hiccup for a long time android/GMS user point of view? Thank you again for a great video!

[@lltechview]

1. That depends on the app. Uber Eats for example works fine but just does not show a map. Some other apps refuse to work at all when something is missing (ebay for example) 2. I am not really a long time GMS user. I was using Maemo, Meego, BlackBerry 10 OS and SailfishOS as daily driver. And before switching to the Mate 30 Pro without GMS only used the P30 for a year or so. So in general I am not so dependent on Google Play Services and apps based upon this. For me its no issue. I don't use payment via smartphone but rather cash or my card for payment which might be important for some as GMS is required for some smartphone payment via NFC (I tried stocard briefly which always failed for me at a terminal for some reason)

Hi, great job. Can you tell me if the P50 Pro has AR measure app and if you can test it?

Yes this app still exists and works as accurate as on the older phones. So usually for measurements you have like 1-2cm tolerance (where it could be measuring 1-2 cm longer or shorter distance depending on your measuring method)

Cos the P50Pro has a 64M 3.5x telephoto, it is able to match the 10x telephoto on the P40Pro+ by cropping in, hence, achieving lossless hybrid zoom at that range. It's interesting to see how a 64M telephoto is so versatile.
