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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Manufacturer: Huawei
Last year was the year of change for most leading smartphone manufacturers, offering massive overhauls to their flagship devices. With that in mind, as well as the fact that CPU performances are trending toward equal footing, I predicted it would come down to either features or services in 2018.

The Huawei Mate 20 Pro is a true mate among smartphones that we have in that range. The design, display, performance, camera and battery, it scores on all fronts. The Face Unlock is extremely fast and responsive.
As with most Android phones, there is the hardware and software. This phone has fantastic hardware. Great cameras, huge battery, super fast charging, secure face unlock, beautiful display, and plenty of grunt under the hood. Only down side is the finger print sensor under the screen is a bit flaky.
