Watching this on my Mate 20. What an amazing device, if u don't like curved screen and worry of OLED burn in, get this version. The battery endurance is insane, I could hit 9 hours of SOT before bed with heavy use. (Perks to 7nm Kirin 980) Camera performance is not too much difference comparing to the Pro version and u get headphone jack and fm radio. 😎

Mate 20 Pro has a design that is not like other models offline. Curved OLED Curved OLED screen, catching hold, so it is more handsfree than other models. And it is a very beautiful screen with a resolution of 2K + - 4K.

I can only imagine how incredible the mate 20 pro is going to be as the mate 20 is already great.

The only thing I am not loving is how big the phone is. I was using Samsung S6 Edge before the upgrade so the size difference is rather big. But overall, it's genuinely a good phone. I was skeptical before but after using it, I'm enjoying everything about this phone and all the cool tricks! Glad I'm able to help! Oh and the battery actually lasts 2 days! I only charge the phone every 2 days and that's awesome.

HUAWEI Mate 20 Series is very distinctive for photography, landscape or view offline. Details of trees, buildings, skies, it can provide details dynamic range is wide, the dark area of the picture is clear. While the bright side is not white until the invisible. If the sky is bright. It will be adjusted to be beautiful.
Still loving this phone up to now. Bang for the buck for a flagship phone. And, it is a well-rounder complete with the FM radio, 3.5mm jack, and IR blaster which usually doesn't come in on most flagships

Hi - When google says they are stopping the support of new Huawei devices, but existing devices won't be affected. Does this mean existing phones already on the market are not affected by this ban? Can I buy a new phone, if it was already manufactured many months ago, and not have to worry about this ban? For example, is this ban only for future devices coming to the market, not manufactured already?
I want to know it's automatic recording features
In the mate 20 cant enable dark mode?
Is there HiVision for foods on this phone?

HUAWEI Mate 20 Series this time. All models use 3 cameras. Leica Triple Camera All HUAWEI chose to put three cameras to different functions. First camera The camera is a normal view, the next camera is an Ultra Wide lens to take a wide angle. And the last camera Act as a zoom lens. For remote shooting
Still rocking this beast. Best ratiod screen of all phones. Pretty good even in late 2023.

I own a Mate 20 and the One Plus 6+ and both phones are very comparable. The Mate 20 is very very efficient and has the best battery life of the pair. I came from the Note 9 which had a horrible battery life. There is a reason why Samsung and Apple are scared because once Huawei and One Plus becomes mainstream, Apple and Samsung will be finished as far as phones go. My Mate 20 is excellent. Fast performance, out of this world battery and very very customizable.
