Huawei p40 pro (life without Google services)

DARK-KNIGHT

Hi folks have been looking at this phone for a while and I really want to buy one but am just nervous about the fact it doesn't have Google services

Can I ask have you got one? Thoughts on life without Google services

Is it worth picking one up

If it works, I wouldn't buy simply because of lack of Google, and presumably Google can block this workaround?

To those that say "just install the apps via third party installer"... Brilliant. Now that I have the apps, some of them won't work. Revolut, N26, Permanent TSB, not one of them worked on the P40 pro in the shop when i installed them. Some other users in UK tried the same and Barclays as well as Lloyd's won't work. I saw a savage looking high spec P50pro recently, and i must say, without a doubt I'd buy it, only for the banking apps...
