Huawei Mate 20 Pro 128GB
The Mate 20 Pro is Huawei's contribution to the top-end of the smartphone market, and it more than holds its own in very esteemed company.
A work of art
Huawei describe the Mate 20 Pro as "a forged masterpiece of 3D glass with smooth curves and seams that dissolve into the design. A streamlined symphony in the palm of your hand." In other words, it looks great! The slim design also means that it feels comfortable in your hand as well.
World-first technology
The Mate 20 Pro boasts the world's first 7nm mobile AI chipset in the form of the Kirin 980. This lifts speed and power efficiency to a level well above many other smartphones occupying this space in the market.
Fantastic for photographers
The new Leica Triple Camera is powered by AI, which gives you performance and features you can only dream of. The 40 MP main RGB lens captures amazing detail in everyday shots and the 8 MP telephoto lens gets you up close when taking long distance shots. Meanwhile, the new 20 MP Leica Ultra Wide Angle Lens comfortably captures everything you need it to in landscape photos and macro shots.
Rough and tumble
For all its beauty, the Mate Pro 20 is not a fragile device. The IP68 rated water and dust resistance means you can take the phone pretty much anywhere you want to go.
More life from your battery
The larger 4200 mAh battery, with AI power management, gives you more ON time and less down time, while the 40 W2 Huawei SuperCharge lets you charge the Mate 20 Pro up to 70% in just 30 minutes.

Huawei Mate 20 Pro review: Sweet cameras, sour software
Despite being frozen out of the US market due to political opposition, Huawei still managed to surpass Apple this summer to become the world's second largest phone maker behind Samsung.- Design Notch aside
- the Mate 20 Pro is thin and sleek
- somehow fitting in 4 cameras
- depth sensors
- and a huge battery into a very small frame
- Cameras Like the P20 Pro
- the triple camera setup makes for some of the best photos on a smartphone
- Performance With a 7nm Kirin 980 chip every bit as...
- Software Some users probably don't mind EMUI
- but as far as I'm concerned it offers one of the worst software experiences on an Android phone
- to the point where I actually found it unenjoyable in daily use
- Biometric unlocking Both the in-display fingerprint sensor and face unlock are passable
- but...
My new buddy is called the Huawei Mate 20 Pro
I thought I'd run through my experiences so far – please bear in mind that I've got pudgy fingers and can't touch type on a smartphone. I could always attach my Bluetooth keyboard. I'm pondering attaching a display to it too, so I could use it as a portable PC. But then I'd need a mouse as well.
Huawei Mate 20 Pro: camera review

- Fantastic portrait mode
- Ultra-wide lens really works
- HDR is vibrant but we wanted more
- No monochrome lens
The Mate 20 Pro is a powerful, feature-packed, exciting phone. It looks gorgeous, it feels great in the hand, and it runs solid software. It charges wickedly fast and can chug along for days on a single charge.
- Gorgeous design Big
- beautiful screen Huge battery Very fast charging Reverse wireless charging Solid software Versatile camera Good biometric features
- Inconsistent low-light image quality No 3.5mm headphone jack Proprietary memory card Expensive
How close can the Huawei Mate 20 Pro go
When it was revealed recently, the Huawei Mate 20 series offered a refreshed Matrix Camera system with a new 16mm Leica Ultra-Wide Angle Lens, for Triple Rear cameras that not only took detailed wide angle shots but allowed you to go in as close as 2.5cm away from your target.
In 2018, the Mate 20 Pro uses much of what Huawei has learned with the P20 Pro, and takes it further. An already capable camera system has been tweaked and improved, and paired with a class-leading chipset and other quality internals.
