Huawei Mate 20 Pro is the Chinese brand's most audacious phone yet. It has an in-display fingerprint scanner, four cameras, can wirelessly charge other phones and more. Huawei’s phones just keep on getting better. The Mate 20 Pro is full of great features and offers up an excellent alternative to any other flagship phone on the market right now.
The Huawei Mate 20 Pro captured headlines and hearts this year, and it was also joined by the Huawei Mate 20, which could similarly be seen as its less-famous sibling.We’ve now spent some more time with the Mate 20, and it may just be one of the unsung hero phones of 2018.

The Mate 20 does not have the 3D-sensing front facing camera setup. It still has face unlock, but it’s not suitable for secure payment use. It was also less reliable than previous Huawei phones, and not as fast as the OnePlus 6T. A further disappointment is the lower water and dust resistance. The Mate 20 has an IP54 rating, compared to the Mate 20 Pro’s IP68, making it less durable.
The Mate 20 isn’t as eye-catching as the Mate 20 Pro, and it won’t stand out in a crowd especially in the black color. However, we love the size of the screen, the teardrop notch, and the tiny bezels.
GAMING EXPERIENCE
It’s a great gaming machine too. We’ve played PUBG for hours on the Mate 20, and it never gets uncomfortable to hold, and doesn’t get overly hot. We never saw any slowdown or poor frame rates when playing Reckless Racing 3. In general, everyday use, the Mate 20 is a solid, speedy companion.
