Huaweia Mate 40 Pro — który w Polsce wyceniony jest na 5399 zł - używam od dnia premiery.From a technical point of view, it's hard to get really firmly attached to something.But there are few things that I will miss when I return to Galaxy Note 20 Ultra.

To o tyle ważne, że nowe smartfony Huaweia — jak wiemy - nie mają usług Google'a.Today, HMS is much more used than half a year ago, but it's still a lot of urgency.Improved, which Mate 40 Pro is not very trying to compensate for a meaningful way.

Huawei slowed down when he should not slow down

I was (and I am) a big fan of what Huawei did in 2018-2019.At that time, a smartphone appeared every six months, which in some aspect outclassed the competition and ahead of market standards.

Huawei P20 Pro miał aparat o wysokiej rozdzielczości i był pierwszym smartfonem z trybem nocnym — rozwiązaniem, bez którego ciężko wyobrazić sobie nowoczesny telefon.

Huawei Mate 20 Pro tempted a triple camera with a good telephoto lens and an ultra -ultra -angle lens and wireless feedback.These solutions became a market standard many months later.

Huawei P30 Pro added a periscope telephoto lens with a 5x optical approximation.Samsung made this solution his marketing locomotive only a year later and in the phones costing OK.PLN 6,000.

Każdy z tych telefonów pod względem sprzętowym był w dniu swojej premiery na tyle przełomowy, że — gdyby zadebiutował bez usług Google'a — byłbym skłonny się zastanowić, czy nie warto przeboleć programowych braków.

Meanwhile, P40 Pro and the latest Mate 40 Pro are hardware very good phones, but I don't see them to compensate for the lack of Google services.As if Huawei prepared them without the awareness that Ban Donald Trump exists.

Największe zalety Huaweia Mate 40 Pro? Po pierwsze — wygląd

What can I say.After a few months of continuous testing of smartphones that look like this:

... it's nice to pick up a phone that looks like this:

I like everything in this design. Okrągły pierścień z aparatami wygląda oryginalnie, a przy tym — w mojej ocenie — bardzo ładnie.And he emphasizes the photographic aspirations of this smartphone.

The silver color variant reflects the light in an effective way, taking various colors depending on the angle and the strength of its incidence.Thanks to the matte finish, Mate 40 Pro is relatively not susceptible to dirt.

The front is also not bad thanks to symmetry, which is disturbed by "only" hole in the corner.The sides of the display are extremely curved, but effectively ignore accidental clicks, so they do not negatively affect the comfort of use.

Huawei Mate 40 Pro is made solidly, and its resistance to water and dust is certified by the waterproof certificate.

And this haptic engine, which is simply perfect.When using virtual knobs or sliders, the smartphone effectively imitates the work of physical cogs, giving clear feedback.

Po drugie — Huawei Mate 40 Pro ma genialną baterię

Pojemność 4400 mAh nie jest rekordem świata, ale smartfon rekompensuje to procesorem wykonanym w rekordowym, 5-nanometrowym procesie litograficznym oraz — przede wszystkim — zoptymalizowanym oprogramowaniem.

Mate 40 Pro is one of the few smartphones that combines flagship performance with a battery that is hard to get in a day.8-9 hours on the screen are results that should not surprise anyone.

The smartphone also supports turboszybkie charging 66 W, which allows you to kill up to 100 percent.in OK.45 minutes.There is also quick wireless charging of 50 W, but I did not have the opportunity to check it because of the lack of an appropriate charger.

Let's add the function of wireless feedback and we have basically everything you can expect from the smartphone battery.

The Huaweia Mate 40 Pro camera is good, but I have a few reservations

The smartphone is equipped with:

The range of focal lengths allows you to obtain 0.7 times distance (but only in theory, about which in a moment), 5 times optical approximation and a maximum of 50 times digital zoom.However, this is only art for art, because the photos remain used to be more up to 10x.

Below are some photos at different levels of approximation.

As for the range of focal lengths, I am bothering the lack of a truly ultra -ultrazerocopian lens, which Huawei is trying to hide cleverly.The software gives the 0.7x distance value, but during a smooth zoom the main camera is activated after reaching a value of 0.8x.The default value of 1x is really a digital zoom.

This is what the photo looks like with the main camera:

This is what a photo taken with a camera with an ultra -ultra -angle lens looks like:

And so a photo taken from the same place with a wider Galaxy Note 20 Ultra lens:

As you can see, the angle of view of the additional camera Mate 40 Pro is not much larger compared to the main camera.Its main function is to make films (hence the unusual proportions 3: 2), and a slightly shorter focal length is just an add -on.

Personally, during everyday photography, I consider wide optics to be very practical, so it's a pity that in this aspect Mate 40 Pro disappears most competitors.So good that there is no compensated with a great zoom.

Co z jakością zdjęć?

Below is a photo gallery taken in various lighting conditions:

The strong advantage of Huawei Mate 40 Pro is the high detail of the photos.The number of details impresses in virtually all lighting conditions.

However, I'm not a fan of what Mate 40 Pro does with colors.The smartphone often completely spaces the white balance, which translates into drastically distorted colors.

Let's take a look at the photos taken after dark in automatic and night mode.

Huawei invariably splashes in extremely difficult lighting conditions.I took the last two pics in almost complete darkness, and Mate 40 Pro has immortalized excellent staff even without night mode.

However, when we talk about night photos taken in a good artificial light, the matter gets complicated.In this case, the smartphone likes to generate a strong noise in darker parts (look at the sky in the first photo) or shoot the white balance (the church in one of the last photos is made of classic red brick, and in the photo its color is rotten).

Nie zrozumcie mnie źle — Huawei Mate 40 Pro w dalszym ciągu ma bardzo dobry, wszechstronny aparat.The problem is that today we have smartphones with very good, versatile cameras.

Huawei has a real firecracker in his arsenal in the form of a periscope telephoto lens with a 10x optical approximation, but this one is reserved for P40 Pro+ models and still inaccessible in Poland Mate 40 Pro+.

Huawei Mate 40 Pro: What else?

Finally, a handful of other observations after a few days of testing.

Wyświetlacz jest w porządku, ale mogło być lepiej

After the first launch, some may be disturbed by faithfully reproduced, but because.However, these can be fueled in the settings, and after this procedure the displayed image pleases the eye.

The 90 Hz refreshment provides satisfying liquidity, but it must be noted that many much cheaper rivals (headed by Samsung's flagships) already offer 120 Hz panels.

Głośniki stereo są bardzo dobre

Huawei devoted a lot of attention to his stereo speaker.Although these are not the best on the market (far away), there is really no shame.The sound is loud, clean and fleshy.

The bottom speaker has more power, but you can only hear it after clogging it with a hand.When both play at the same time, the sound gives the impression of even.

Skanowanie twarzy w 3D to ściema

The front hole hides the camera and infrared sensor, which allegedly is responsible for scanning the face in 3D, which is to be an above average safe solution. No właśnie — ma być.

My tests have shown that infrared helps only recognize the face in the dark.After sticking the sensor, the face is still scanned using the selfie camera itself, so there can be no advanced 3D process.

Obsługa gestami jako tako działa, ale nie widzę dla niej sensownego zastosowania

By waving your hand above the screen, you can.in.scroll websites, receive calls or control the music player.According to the manufacturer's declaration, this is to be useful, for example.in the kitchen (dirty hands) or in the car.

Using this function requires practice (the hand must be arranged in the right position and distance), and the reaction to gestures occurs with a slight delay.As for non -contact service, I prefer any phone with Google assistant.

Do wydajności ciężko się przyczepić

Kirin 9000 is a sweener that provides efficient work in the absence of susceptibility to high temperatures.

8 GB of RAM at this moment provides a satisfactory multitasking, but in a smartphone for well over PLN 5,000 it would be nice to see more future 12 GB.

Huawei Mate 40 Pro is simply a decent flagship with a huge disadvantage that is not compensated

If Mate 40 Pro had Google services, I could use it on a daily basis.Google services, however, are not there, and is not much beyond what the competition offers (even the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra).

The original appearance and great battery with super -fast charging is not enough for me to wipe tears after contactless payments, Google maps, assistant, YouTube or easy access to hundreds of thousands of high -quality games and applications.
