Our Huawei Mate 20 Pro Review

The Huawei Mate P20 Pro takes the best of Android smartphones and improves it with exciting new technology, a stylish design and a strange but impressive camera system. 

Huawei Mate 20 Pro: Display

The Mate 20 Pro offers a 6.39-inch Full HD+ display, giving you a better view on what you use your phone for day-to-day. Using the standard modern method of stretching the screen right to the edges, the Mate 20 Pro has no bezels, allowing for a seamless experience when typing, scrolling or watching video content. 

The larger display does mean no home button, but don’t worry. You’ll be able to unlock your phone via the Face ID technology as well as a pressure sensor in the middle of the phone’s screen. This gives you more options than Apple’s iPhone X series and makes it simple to use the phone even if you’re used to a home button.

Huawei Mate 20 Pro: Camera

The camera has to be the Mate 20 Pro’s noteable feature. This triple camera system allows for photos to be captured in 40 megapixels, with a different megapixel count based on how much you zoom into your target.

This makes the device an ideal option for those who take photos on the go or even professional photographers. Using the Ultra Wide Angle Lens, you’ll be able to take landscape photos and macro shots, giving you ultimate freedom when shooting on the go.

Huawei Mate 20 Pro: Design

The device has the sleek design we’ve come to expect from Huawei, offering a sharp look to go alongside its impressive technology. With the display reaching right to the edges, the phone has a lack of bezels which allows for a larger screen inside a smaller handset. 

You can also choose from 3 different colours, including Emerald Green, Twilight and Black. The device itself is made from a special, durable glass that can withstand drops and accidents, with a texture that’s both non-slip and anti-fingerprint.

Huawei Mate 20 Pro: Performance

The performance you’ll experience when using the device is impressive thanks to the powerful and intelligent chipset ever found in a smartphone. This industry-leading technology packs a huge amount of power inside a tiny chip, giving you maximum speed and efficiency. 

Using the technology available, the Mate 20 Pro adapts its power to what you’re doing. So if you’re just making a call or browsing Facebook, the phone will conserve energy to use later on when you’re playing a game or streaming content online.

Huawei Mate 20 Pro: Features

The Mate 20 Pro runs on the Android mobile OS, which is the most used in the world. This offers you ultimate control and customisation alongside a smart and snappy user experience. 

Users will also have access to the Google Play Store, offering thousands of different apps and games to download on your phone. You’ll also be able to buy and download a huge amount of music, films and TV series that you can watch on your phone or elsewhere using your Google account.

How much is the Huawei Mate 20 Pro?  

Buying the Huawei Mate 20 Pro outright will cost you over £800, meaning that you’re better off buying it as part of a contract rather than getting a SIM-only deal. This way, you can include the cost of the phone with your minutes, texts and data at the end of the month.

Huawei Mate 20 Pro: Our Verdict  

The Huawei Mate 20 Pro is a very impressive Android smartphone, offering a stunning display, lightning-fast processor and stylish design. If you’re looking for something to rival Samsung’s efforts, this is the device for you.
