Software

As a result of a ban on trading with the US, Huawei can’t preload newly released phones with Google apps like Maps and YouTube, the Play Store or Google Assistant. New Huawei P40 phones all come with a new android 10 but without Google services. Don’t let this disappoint you, there is a chance of getting your services back, you can do in two ways with and without an USB drive.

Which one you should buy?

The Huawei Mate 40 series phones are excellent flagship smartphones. They have a great 5G chipset overall great specs and an excellent 90HZ display. Their camera has been ranked as one of the best smartphone cameras so far. Huawei Mate 40 Pro and Pro Plus are much better(cameras especially) than the base model but it also comes with a higher price. So if you have a higher budget we recommend you go with either Mate 40 Pro or Mate 40 Pro Plus since it’s one of the best flagship phones. But if you want to save a little go for Mate 40.
