Epic iPhone X, Galaxy S9 Plus, Huawei P20 Pro, Pixel 2 camera showdown

Leica is to the photography world what Rolex is to watches. It’s synonymous with a heritage of high-quality cameras, lenses and romanticised photographic experiences in exotic locales. It’s also a name that the Huawei P20 Pro phone proudly bears on its back. In 2014 the two companies partnered to fine-tune the imaging process and optics on Huawei phones.

Nokia 3310, SNES Classic, BlackBerry use nostalgia to sell

I’m hoping for an “add to cart” button, but in less than two minutes it’s sold out and I miss my chance. To quote Charles Bronson: no dice. My reason for buying was simple.
