The Huawei Mate 20 is a premium flagship just like its more-expensive sibling, the Mate 20 Pro. Huawei has equipped the Mate 20 with its Kirin 980 SoC, which makes the device as powerful as the Pro model. Moreover, the former’s lower resolution display...

Huawei Mate 20 Review

 

The Mate 20, Huawei's other, more affordable flagship, comes with the same fast, 7nm chip as the Pro version and has most of the tricks of its sibling…

Incredible, 2-day battery life ; Android’s most advanced 7nm chip ; Plentiful 128GB internal storage

Pricey for what it is ; LCD screen is not quite as great as some AMOLEDs ; Camera is just decent, not on par with the best ; Unclear future software update situation ; Gesture navigation is not perfectly polished ; Loudspeaker is too quiet

Huawei Mate 20 review: Not as good as the Mate 20 Pro and a bit too wide for comfort Review | ZDNet

 

The Mate 20 Pro is an outstanding flagship, but for €150 less you can pick up a less capable Mate 20. It's a bit too wide and has an LCD screen, but still has a headphone jack and three rear cameras.

Gorgeous fit, finish, and design ; Outstanding battery life ; Perfectly placed fingerprint scanner ; 3.5mm headset jack, FM radio, and IR receiver

Minimal level of dust/water resistance ; No support for wireless charging ; Proprietary nano memory card format

Huawei Mate 20 review: everything you need... in XXL | AndroidPIT

 

Huawei has introduced three new additions to its Mate series, and the Mate 20 is in the middle ground between the Lite and Pro models. But that doesn't mean the device is mediocre, since it still has a lot to offer. We tested the Mate 20 and we'll tell...

I'm not going to beat around the bush: when I like something, I really like it. The Huawei Mate 20 has been an extension of my hand for several weeks now. And I won't trade it in for another device anytime soon. It's dazzled me from the beginning to...

Huawei Mate 20 review: One of the best phones the US is missing out on

 

Huawei's Mate 20 Pro might take the company's ultimate flagship title this generation, but the slightly lower-end Mate 20 is still a phone worth

Huawei's Mate 20 Pro Is a Technical Marvel

 

If we judged the new Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro like Olympic figure skaters, they'd no doubt earn 10s across the board for technical merit. That's because even though they don't have a built-in stylus, Huawei's new flagship phone duo offers almost every...
