i just bought (well on a plan - $85 a month) a huawei mate 20 pro
coming from a samsung galaxy s7 which was basically cactus (back had half peeled off due to battery expanding, cracked rear causing camera issues, battery struggling to last 8 hours), my main desires were: good camera, good battery, relatively tough (at least dust resistant and waterproof)
so far it fits the bill. it has 3 lenses, goes up to 40 megapixel, 3x optical zoom and so far my pictures are coming out pretty good. i'm not 100% convinced it outperforms my old galaxy s7 in ALL circumstances though. certainly low light is better, better zoom, i like the ultrawide lens, but i think in some lights the samsung just picked up the colour better.
maybe it's just the trashed battery in the samdung that i was used to, but i can't stop raving about this battery. its 4000mah which is more than all the sammies or apples and i can easily pull 2 days from it without worrying at all.
i can't vouch for the toughness yet, i bought a spigen case for it to give it a boost, no issues so far but i am trying to baby it to an extent.
