Which is the better power user phone: HUAWEI Mate 20 Pro or Galaxy Note 9? (Poll of the Week)

Last week’s poll summary: Last week, we asked you if you were planning on buying the Google Pixel 3, Pixel 3 XL, or neither. The overwhelming majority of our readers said they weren’t going to buy either, 16 percent said they prefer the smaller Pixel 3, and just 12 percent voted for the Pixel 3 XL.

Power users want everything but the kitchen sink in their phones: the highest resolution displays, fastest processors, as much storage as possible, and the “extras” that aren’t available in all phones like a headphone jack or front-facing speakers.

Two of the best phones for power users right now are the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 and the newly announced HUAWEI Mate 20 Pro.

We’ve talked in great detail about how much we like the Galaxy Note 9, mostly because it checks almost every box on the specs and features list. It has a headphone jack, two of the best cameras out there, the best display out there, IP68 water resistance, and an S Pen. We originally thought the LG V40 could give it a run for its money, but we all know how that went.

Enter the HUAWEI Mate 20 Pro. With a sleek new design, three rear-facing cameras, a gorgeous display, and the powerful Kirin 980 SoC, the Mate 20 Pro is no slouch either.
