Huawei P20 Review | Trusted Reviews

Huawei's P20 might look like the beefier P20 Pro, minus that third camera sensor but there are a few other differences worth considering before coughing up

Fantastic dual-camera ; 128GB of storage ; Solid performance ; Stunning design ; EMUI interface has come a long way

No 3.5mm headphone port ; LCD display rather than OLED ; No Qi charging ; Lack of water-resistace

A fantastic smartphone for everyone except those who will be happy to pay the extra for the P20 Pro’s additional optical talents.

Huawei P20 review

A solid smartphone, but its big brother is better

Great camera ; Big battery with lots of stamina ; Optional (ish) notch

No headphone jack ; No wireless charging or water resistance ; Pales next to the P20 Pro

The follow-up to the P10 has plenty of high points, not least the camera and hardware, but the Huawei P20 doesn’t quite have enough to compete with 2018’s best flagships. It seems the much better P20 Pro is doing that instead.

Huawei P20 review: a beautiful phone, but we miss the P20 Pro's camera

The P20 is a beautiful phone, but it doesn't have the innovative camera found in the P20 Pro, and that's a shame

Premium design ; A pretty decent camera ; Improved software ; Perfect size

Unoriginal design ; No triple camera system ; UI isn't perfect

Huawei P20: A killer low-light camera you can actually afford

It has the Huawei P20 Pro's night mode, but costs you hundreds less.

The Huawei P20 takes terrific low-light photos from the dual rear camera, comes in some astounding colors and is small enough to use with one hand. Like the P20 Pro, it lets you hide the default screen notch many Android fans hate.

Why is the P20 only splash-proof, but not rated water-resistant like the P20 Pro? There's no headset jack. You won't be able to buy it in the US.

The Huawei P20 cuts some luxuries, but delivers similarly spectacular low-light photos of the Pro model.

Huawei P20 review

The iPhone X blends with Samsung's Galaxy S9 in identikit fashion.

Great LCD screen ; Speedy performance ; Tidy camera

Borrowed design ; No waterproofing ; No headphone jack

A great Android all-rounder that borrows a little bit too much from its rivals.

Huawei P20 Review: Slick hardware, smart software

Huawei's super-smart 2018 flagship phone is a seductive blend of gorgeous hardware and intelligent software, which makes for a very satisfying everyday experience. Here's our full Huawei P20 review.

Lush design ; Brilliant everyday camera ; Decent battery life

Occasional glitch ; No expandable storage ; Not fully water resistant

The Huawei P20 is a brilliant flagship blower, offering sleek design work paired with some really clever hardware and software. There’s no tri-lens camera tech, but that dual lens snapper still captures great-looking photos and home movies. And besides...
