True. Samsung and apple have been stuck in innovation. Players like LG , Huawei were true innovators. I hope they dont cut Xiaomi head soon.

Xiaomi doesn't make phones, they make e-waste. Also, they are giving their name to other companies that are making trash products. Which is just more e-waste. They are lacking innovation and are simply reproducing existing designs.

[@notpikachu8702]

surprisingly, xiaomi is also kinda holding back on innovation, this is especially obvious from the fact that they don't focus much on the mix series anymore, and everything else is just copying the flagships with lower prices. (also their shitty os compared to similar brands)

[@Dakamaru]

I also thought about LG. Recently I showed a mix of my best photos over the years to a friend in a non chronological order. He kept guessing the newer iPhone ones correctly, but kept saying “That’s DSLR” on photos that I took 9 years ago on my LG G3. These brands just used to nail it with some of their models. Players that pushed the others to work harder for their money. But one died due to poor marketing choices, the other due to political assassination. Sad.

Huawei had also the best cameras. Yeah, according to DXOMARK Huawei is still the best, but they don't care about AI or no AI cameras. I do care and that's why I choose Vivo. Vivo X100 Ultra uses normal image processing. They also use AI image processing, but only in big zooms and dark places. In bright places it uses 0 AI image processing. But in pro mode, Vivo X100 Ultra uses 0 AI, even in dark places. I prefer normal image processing. Why? Because AI image processing looks like a chalkboard painting and AI image processing deletes small details, like hair and knuckles. Normal image processing doesn't delete any details. I like the big pixels. Normal image processing wins.

Still a proud owner of a phone from Huawei, the nova 5t. Still going good 5 years later.

To this day I have the feeling that this ban was simply done so that the big competitors could remain marketable.

That and the p30 pro were my favorite

Use a Huawei Pura 70 ultra with micro g I think you'll be really surprised

[@real_rsaNoob13]

All I have is a Huawei Nova 11i and I also use MicroG with Emui 14.2. Now the phone is perfect

[@morenooriental7865]

Bro, I still have my Huawei p30 pro and it is absolutely amazing to this day!

[@ChiekoGamers]

I got this phone during the pandemic. The camera was not the best but it was crazy consistent and I liked the image processing that Huawei did. It wasn't too saturated or too sharp, it was perfectly balanced. This phone is a beast.

7:09 Vivo phones with Zeiss cameras also let you change bokeh in potrait mode (even if one of their bokeh options is capital C Cringe)

Loved our huawei p30 pro and lite .. specially the p30 pro..never got slowed down unlike apple or samsung..stayed totally reliably in use for more than 4 years and only now, the speaker gave up ... now because of our experience with Huawei , we bought honor magic 6 pros..2x..one for me and one for my wife!

[@ivantrump4022]

I absolutely loved my Mate 20 Pro. I regret selling it as it was one of the best phones I ever had.

[@sajithrfernando5919]

Remember when Huawei first introduced the 30x zoom? Everyone else wanted a better zoom in their own brands afterwards 😂

[@RoyFJ65]

The Mate 40 Pro that I own was equally revolutionary with amazing performance and camera, same with the P30 Pro and P20 pro.

[@DarkFatShadow]

The TriFold device is a great example of innovation..... Huawei is still ahead of the competition even though it was banned..... Hope they build trust against all the odds.... Hope for the best for everyone..... Huawei ,Users & competitors...

[@nathakarnjarernphureewath2376]

I am still using this device, I'm not sure what it is. But I still love it, even though the camera starting to show its age. But that waterfall display nothing can win me over that

[@SPARTAN_Cayde-26]

I would love to have a Mate 30 Pro because most common apps are available from Huaweis store in Finland.

BRUH WHAT'S UP WITH THE DIRTY FILTER AT 7:49 😂 I WAS WIPING MY SCREEN FOR A HOT MINUTE 😂

[@shamalow1819]

Had a P20 pro before huawei got banned, was one of my favourite phone I've ever had, especially the ui

[@Percy.13]

It's crazy to think that this model came out 5 years ago. If your putting it into perspective, in 2014, 5 years ago would be 2009, the jump for the innovation of mobile phone industry was big and noticeable back then. But in 2019, the smartphones released that year would be just as good as the ones released this year of 2024. Ps. I'm still using my Huawei Nova 5T that I bought 5 years ago. I can still run games like Genshin Impact and Wuthering Waves no problem.
