Switching To The Huawei P20 Pro...

Okay, so in my recent video, Huawei passing Apple, beating Apple, it's the first time in seven years that the top two spots were not acupun

Acupuncture? The top two spots in any quarter weren't occupied by Samsung or Apple

And now there's a company named Huawei that sits there. And that's what brings me to this video. If you didn't see that video, go watch it

But this video is all about me taking a bit of a deeper dive in a personal way

I said personal, Jack. What's all this hype about? Like, of course, I've looked at these products

But have I really done my job? Did I really put the SIM in and live that life

No, I haven't. Here today, we have another Switch video. As much as I'm loving the Galaxy S9+

I mean, I'm enjoying it. Let's not get carried away. It is time to change my SIM over for you

To see if this growth in the marketplace is justified and just how good the P20 Pro actually is now

Obviously the most exciting thing about this phone is the camera layout three camera system

I honestly think I going to use this thing for like two weeks at least daily driver status And I gonna come back to you with the realness as best I can is this thing legit is this the future Is this the smartphone brand that you need to be aware of Is this the best camera in any smartphone

128 gigabytes of storage, 6 gigabytes of RAM. There you are. Let's check it out

Now, first thing you're gonna notice, fingerprint scanner on the front, which is becoming kind of a rarity

Yes, there's a notch. It's not a huge notch, but you got yourself a notch. A little headset reminiscent of, oh, I don't know

No headset I've ever seen before. There it is. Kablamo. Triple camera setup and some of the craziest low light functionality that I've ever experienced

even though it was temporary when I was at the event. Pull that off

Unfortunately, we do have a fingerprint magnet here. Glossy black. Insert SIM, for those that don't believe me

Moment of truth, ladies and gentlemen, this is the S9 Plus that I've been using

You're skeptical, you're like, ah, Lou's not gonna do it. Well, look, here, I'm doing it because this is my real job

Give you the real deal. The sim is in! All right, so far so good

I'm seeing four bars on a 4G. Catch a glance at the display. One thing I like about this, it's a super manageable size

They didn't go gigantic with it. It a little bit shorter than the S9 I already unboxed this thing I mean this video is more about me setting up the process of switching over to it and the complications that may arise or things that might bother me about it

But I do want to give a quick preview of the camera unit. Probably the question I get asked the most is like

Luke, which smartphone has the best camera? Could this possibly be the best smartphone camera

It's got this Leica-inspired text, which is cool. It's a bit of a throwback

Underneath the fingerprints there, you can see they have the collaboration with Leica. 1.6 to 2.4 aperture, 27 to 80. That's just straight up. That's the first camera mode

a quick little shot. If I zoom in, it holds up. It's a nice photo. Just straight up photo mode

Portrait mode is going to aim to create some blur. You've seen this mode in the past

Here we can see it caught this edge really well. See this background here that got blurred out

wouldn't have been nearly as blurry. We get that blurry effect. Portrait mode on the plant

Did a good job around this blade of fake grass, but the craziest thing is for sure the night mode

Let's go real low light in here so people can just tell how dark it is. Oh, well

I don't know that we can oh my god Maybe we can we'll try like this and then we're gonna go pitch black very dark in here

Obviously you can see I in shadow now now I gonna snap this photo And it takes time But oh my god The results Bananas It dark in here You can see it way darker than what the camera was able to pull out

It's the craziest night mode. All right, let's go pitch black. Turn that light off. Here we go

So that is a shot from pitch black. Now, yes, you're losing some of the color

There's no color here in real life. This is just dark. Now, the craziest part here on that second shot, the dim one, not pitch black

but very dim. The image ends up being practically as good as the fully lit one

Maybe even more detail in it, because it wasn't blown out by our lights here

which are kind of on blast most of the time. So, I mean, that's beyond usable. It's just a great-looking frame

But now it's like, what does that equate to in regular life? And then what are the other areas of the phone that I like or don't like

And what's it like really just to live with the P20 Pro? As you can tell, this stuff with the camera is super encouraging

But I do need to figure out what am I really missing from the S9 Plus, which so many people are comfortable with, in switching to this one

My SIM card is in it now. Are they the future? Is this massive growth in market share an indication of what's to come

Will your next device be a Huawei device? Holy smokes! For now I'm gonna go use this and I'll be back. I'm gonna bring the heat. I'm gonna bring the fire

And ultimately, most importantly, the truth
