Astonishingly capable camera ; Great design with eye-catching twilight color scheme ; Long-lasting battery ; Fast, capable performance ; Helpful artificial intelligence features

Not available in the U.S. ; No wireless charging

The Huawei P20 Pro is the best Android smartphone we’ve used this year, with an exciting, fun camera, a gutsy battery, and drop-dead good looks. It’s a damn shame you (ridiculously) can’t officially buy one if you live in the U.S.

Unique tri-lens camera. 5x lossless hybrid zoom is seriously impressive. AI chip offers improved photo scene recognition.

Not officially available in the US. Expensive. Glass body attracts smudges. Notched screen will not be to everyone's liking.

In the UK, the P20 Pro is available to buy on contract now. In the US, your best bet is to order it through a reliable importer and you can expect to pay north of $1,100. That's a hefty premium over the Galaxy S9+, which starts at $840, and even the...

Well-constructed and great color options ; Triple camera system is legitimately impressive ; Display is bright and has great viewing angles ; Two day battery life is class-leading

No official US availability ; EMUI atop Android Oreo still feels unnecessary ; No support for wireless charging ; Camera AI can be heavy-handed with its processing

terrific triple camera ; bright and colour accurate natural tone display ; LTE Cat. 18 ; Dual SIM with dual VoLTE ; aptX HD ; strong performance ; USB 3.1 with HDMI/DP ; great battery life ; MIMO WiFi ; rapid charging ; IP67 rated ; premium construction

no 1,440p display ; no wireless charging ; no headphone jack ; no expandable storage

The Huawei P20 Pro is an excellent smartphone. The P20 Pro is based largely on the Mate 10 Pro, the latter of which does a few things better than the P20 Pro. The Mate 10 Pro has a more aesthetically pleasing design, longer battery life, better call...
