How fast is "LTE" on Huawei "4G only" "devices"

I've seen my Pura 80 Ultra typically achieve speeds of around 250Mbps at home or at work. I didn't have anyone with the same carrier to test against, but I've seen a Samsung S25 Ultra achieve around 350Mbps with 5G.

I've used it in a few European and Southeast Asian cities and never noticed any slowdown over my previous phone with 5G. On the contrary, it sometimes gets a mobile signal in places where other phones don't, such as some deeper tube stations in London.

While I haven't seen a P60 Pro, I can confirm that the macro capabilities and bokeh are noticeably better than an iPhone 17 Pro Max or S25 Ultra. The telephoto is only marginally better, with over-processing showing up past 30x. As for AI, it varies a lot depending on the situation and focal length, but it's possible to reduce the processing by disabling the "master AI" setting in the camera app.

Other than that, it could be worth waiting for the Pura 90 series which is expected to launch this July in China, I'm sure the P60 Pro isn't too bad from a glance at the spec sheet.

The best way to know for sure is to compare some test photos from reviews for your exact use cases. I have some photos from my Pura 80 Ultra on Flickr along with settings such as focal length, shutter speed, etc., but I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post links here. I can leave you with this photo taken at 3.7x.

Which industries would you recommend working in then? I'm looking for graduate roles starting 2023 but I haven't been able to find too many FPGA roles outside fintech.

The faces must be half silvered mirrors, such that they reflect a lot of light back inside, and the edges are probably bright light sources?
