Huawei was among the front-runners in the dual-camera race with the P9 and then the Mate 10, so who better to take things to the next level? The Huawei P20 Pro one-ups all current major players and comes with three cameras on its back, each unique in its own right.

This is our full Huawei P20 Pro review; we have spent two weeks with the phone and used it across France, Hungary, and Romania.

- great design and colors; - benchmark smartphone photography; - high-quality display; - great performance; - insane battery life; - solid speakers for multimedia

no wireless charging; no headphone jack could upset some; Master AI image processing is at times inconsistent; concealing the notch via software needs work in some apps

It’s been a long time since a phone of the Huawei P20 Pro’s quality came along to upset the Apple-Samsung duopoly we’ve all gotten used to. Having experienced its amazing triple lens camera, shimmering design and heavyweight performance for a fortnight now, I’m convinced it’s the best new phone of the year so far. Hell, I’ll go one better: it’s the best phone you can buy right now. When so many handsets offer pretty much the same thing right now, the P20 Pro deserves credit for doing a little bit more for less of your money. It’s the first Huawei handset to offer quality through and through. Sure, some software-related rough edges remain but they’re tolerable at worst and totally eradicable if you have the knowhow. Striking just the right balance between borrowed inspiration and genuine innovation, the Huawei P20 Pro is a telephonic tour de force. MORE: The 10 best cases for the Huawei P20 and P20 Pro
