BACKGROUND RUNNING APPS ARE KILLED

Portrait mode was nice too, although I did find it to incorrectly miss blurring some background or blur some foreground

Leica lenses and real-time post-processing on the device - the pictures are stunning (especially open aperture mode which dynamically blurs the background for emphasis - wow

A little background, I was skeptical about getting this phone not because of the huawei brand, but because of the screen size and lack of desire to change from what I 've been used to

so it limits background

Needless to say the 20MB monochrome lens generates unbeatable B/W photo

I'm quite versed at how Huawei does this to save battery, as well as the settings to "Launch", "Battery Optimization", and "Priority" that you need to change if you want to get notifications

The deal breakers are that this phone can be had for $500 on Amazon, while the other phones run between $600-1000, and the battery life on this phone is really pretty amazing (As well as on my previous Mate 9)

One reason I left iphone a while ago is I felt it was SO limited as to customization

Then the 4G LTE worked immediately
