Only things that don't work as far as I know are google wallet and android auto. I have whatsapp even before gbox and microG. I used to use APKpure for everything and most stuff still was working fine

Battery at 96% and the phone is clean
I traded my oneplus 11R for it and paid 25 jod
The oneplus phone was terrible
I actually love this phone
I tried like 10 flagship phones and the Huawei p50 pro is the top 3, this phone is amazing and battery is great for me, but the phone sadly feels warm in normal usage and sometimes hot it kinda depends on the weather
And in jordan its hot in summer
I charge the phone 2 times a day from 100% to 20% sometimes to 40%
The phone is great but not the best but its decent for its price
My list for the top 3 phones i tried this year
1. Samsung s23
2.Huawei mate 50
3.Huawei p50 pro

For anyone interested in this phone in 2025 as a second hand buy:
- Yes, battery life is pretty average. I am a heavy user and combined with th sd888 which is a horrible power hog in 3 years I got the original battery down to 84% health and had to keep it in power saving mode to get me through the day pretty much all the time. That said... I replaced the battery about a week ago with as best as we could determine with the phone technician an original huawei battery and it is back at 100%. Combined with I assume software optimization over the years standby drain is much improved too now at EMUI 14.2. Heat management was never very good. Phone tends to heat up noticeably but after the replacement, at least it seems to me it's better now when charging. I don't feel any heating. This translates to prolonged usage as well. I feel less heating. It could be due to what the guy told me, that he kept the old glue on the panel and added his own on top to allow a bit more space between the glass and metal underneath. I initially was skeptical but seems it helped with the heat dissipation.
I also just got security patch for february so still getting those. Don't know how much longer they'll kep coming but so far so good. It was a flagship after all.
Gspace and MicroG stuff I only recentyl installed. Had no problems using the phone without them before to be fair. I mainly installed them so I can have the youtube app installed because the youtube revanced won't run otherwise. Previously I used youtube through Brave and that works good enough for me. Only things I know you can't run are google wallet and android auto. Maybe there are a couple more but I stay away from google apps if I can for the most part.
The sd888, while a power hog, is still pretty capable but for gaming I wouldn't recommend the phone due to potentially the processor running hot and battery draining fast. I don't game on mobile so I personally do not care.
Overall if you want a flagship camera phone, you could get the p50 pro for cheap second hand and replace the battery if the health is low. Just make sure you find an original one or as sure as you can be as with all phones. The cameras on this thing are unmatched for the prices you can now find it for and even compared to modern flagships it by no means feels inferior. Midrangers, even modern ones are not even in the race.
The last point I'd want to make is that if you like to have a decently large display but in a compact one handable body - I haven't used a better proportioned phone than this one so far. It is a very strong reason for why I am having such a hard time to find a suitable replacement for it.

I have this phone since 2022 and it is pretty good. Bought it for about 450 euros back then because it was cheaper without google. Almost all apps that I need work, including banking apps. Great camera, good gaming performance. 100x zoom camera is great to have. I can play games like Pubg without lag. Snapdragon 888 is still very capable today. Only the battery life is not as good as I bought it. Even without google I have been receiving monthly security patches, last one now in January. Nowadays you can even get it for 350-400 euros as second hand phone from retail shops.
