Continuing with the camera tests, here we have the Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus compared to its own brethren: the Galaxy S8, Galaxy S8 Plus, Galaxy Note8.

Huawei P20 Complete Walkthrough (Video)

Now, for me, the P20 Pro with its 3 Leica camera setup is more interesting but Huawei also launched a smaller, baby brother version called the Huawei P20.
