Huawei P20 Pro

The Huawei P20 Pro rocks the first triple camera on a smartphone but it also boasts Huawei's most powerful processor, 6GB of RAM and a 4000mAh battery.

Fantastic tri-camera ; Plenty of storage and RAM ; Stunning design ; EMUI interface has come a long way

No 3.5mm headphone jack ; There are faster phones ; No wireless charging

The Huawei P20 Pro sports a massive 4000mAh non-removable battery, which is more than enough to see the handset through at least two days of intermediate use – and it did on more than one occasion. I was unhooking the unit at 7:30 am and using it to...

Huawei P20 Pro review: The best phone you'll never buy

Huawei is dealing with its fair share of trouble in the US, but that doesn't mean it forgot how to make a great phone. From build quality to design to camera performance, the P20 Pro is every bit a first-rate flagship smartphone. That doesn't mean it...

Stunning design and build quality ; 2+ day battery life ; Impressive Leica triple camera system ; Solid performance

Not for sale in the US ; The notch will bug some people ; No headphone jack ; Camera’s Master AI can be overzealous

Chris is Engadget's senior mobile editor and moonlights as a professional moment ruiner. His early years were spent taking apart Sega consoles and writing awful fan fiction. That passion for electronics and words would eventually lead him to covering...

Huawei P20 Pro review

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...

Huawei P20 Pro review

The Huawei P20 Pro is the best Android smartphone we've used this year

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.

Huawei P20 Pro review

Huawei's flagship smartphone aims to take on the best, but audio quality is lacking.

Flagship design and features ; Face and fingerprint unlock ; Excellent camera ; Detailed, sharp video

Average sound ; No 3.5mm headphone jack

But for its average audio quality, this feature-packed flagship would bag five stars

Three-camera Huawei P20 Pro steals Galaxy S9's camera crown

Those cameras aren't a gimmick: This phone takes superb shots in low light.

The Huawei P20 Pro's three cameras snap amazing shots in low light. Its coolest colour will turn heads.

It lacks wireless charging, and there's no headphone jack or expandable storage. The auto camera settings don't always produce the best results.

The Huawei P20 Pro's groundbreaking low-light mode and stunning twilight colour scheme make it a serious contender to Galaxy, iPhone and Pixel phones. Sadly, you can't buy it in the US.

Huawei P20 Pro

The Huawei P20 Pro one-ups the camera phone competition by adding a third telephoto sensor, giving you improved long-distance firepower.

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...

Huawei P20 Pro review: style and substance from an unlikely source

If you've been waiting for a phone that can upset the Apple-Samsung duopoly, this is it

Epic battery life ; Lovely, sophisticated design ; Exceptional camera system ; High-quality display

Software adaptations to the notch could be better ; No headphone jack ; Master AI image processing isn’t perfectly consistent ; No wireless charging

Instead of gimmicks and gaudiness, the Huawei P20 Pro delivers refinement and efficiency. That’s a major change for Huawei, which could previously be relied upon to be the fastest iPhone copycat in the East. With Huawei’s rapid improvement, Apple and...

Huawei P20 Pro review: Is three cameras the magic number?

This premium Android phone has an iPhone X-style notch and not one, not two, but three rear cameras!

Premium design ; Triple camera system ; Improved software ; Great battery life

Design lacks originality ; UI still isn't perfect

The Huawei P20 & P20 Pro Review: Great Battery Life & Even Better Night Vision

For me, Huawei holds a special place among device manufacturers, as the Honor 6 and Mate 7 were the two first reviews I had written on AnandTech. This was back before Huawei found wide-spread success both in China as well as western markets, so it...

Overall I think it’s going to be a very subjective decision based on what the buyer wants to prioritise, especially when it comes to battery life and camera experience. If you value battery life over everything else, then the P20’s are your go-to...
