“This is a camera phone in many ways” – Kommersant FM

Browser “Kommersant FM” Alexander Levy talks about the merits of the flagship smartphone from Huawei.

A whole series of Huawei novelties, presented in China back in March, ended up outside the Celestial Empire by May. I have seen the Mate X3 foldable smartphone, FreeBuds 5 wireless headphones, Watch Ultimate and Watch Buds smart watches, as well as the MateBook X Pro laptop, and I have already tested the flagship Huawei P60 Pro.

This is a camera phone in many ways. In formal terms, the letter “P” in the name stands for the English word “photo”, with its appearance the main camera unit in a horizontal position resembles the front side of a camera, but the status of a camera phone is confirmed not by designers and marketers, but by engineers.

The main and telephoto lens – with optical stabilization and 48 megapixels each, “ultra-wide” and wide-angle selfie camera with 13 megapixel sensors work surprisingly sterile. Flaws, of course, can be found, but their nature and number will not be more, but often less than that of the current flagships.

For example, in pictures taken at night, the Huawei P60 Pro has less light, slightly higher detail, although there are more active color saturation and a bias in the blue spectrum. At the same time, competitors often overdo it with yellow. But these minute differences do not make sense to consider separately. Thanks to algorithms, every camera in the flagship P60 Pro manages to produce stable, balanced images. The tele-, wide-angle and selfie cameras are especially pleasantly surprised, for which there are more complex tasks than for the main module.

In numbers, the performance of the Huawei P60 Pro cameras was rated by the DxOMark laboratory experts – 156 points. This brought the smartphone to the first place in the ranking, which was previously occupied by the OPPO Find X6 model, having three points less in the asset.

The complete 88W universal fast charging, Huawei Kunlun’s own display protection with a five-star Swiss SGS certificate, the new generation LTPO screen itself with an adaptive frequency of up to 120 Hz and other important characteristics, in my opinion, are lost against the backdrop of the rear panel design alone. color “Pearl of Rococo”.

The creators of the P60 Pro used mineral pearl powder, which gives a matte, pleasant to the touch surface, iridescence of mother-of-pearl. Moreover, the manufacturer assures that the patterns on such heels are unique. I was able to compare about a dozen options and there really were no identical ones.
