Yep, my partner has a P20 and I'm much happier using that than my pixel 3. Unfortunately they don't do google services on their new devices which my employer mandates on their devices for 2fa, so my choices are carry two smartphones, or don't use huawei. Similarly my bank(s) don't support huawei phones last time I checked.

I bought a Xiaomi burner for an asian trip a few years ago. Seemed competently done, and the international versions allowed Google.

I bought a Huawei and while I am overall happy about the phone I am sad that the bootloader is locked. They used to hand out unlock codes but not anymore. It feels like I do not really own the phone now. I am completely at Huaweis mercy in regards to updates. I will not buy a phone with a locked bootloader again.
