  • Huawei Mate 20 Pro – what surprised after its release?

    Behind us is the premiere of the successor to the iconic Huawei Mate 10 Pro – Huawei Mate 20 Pro. It is characterized by its unique appearance, interesting technical solutions, and most importantly, excellent performance. As a company representative stated at the premiere in London – Huawei Mate 20 Pro is the best of the Chinese company’s devices so far. What else do we know about it? What does it look like? What is hidden inside? In this article, we will introduce you to the specifications of this model.

    The phone has an incredibly attractive appearance. It is set to be available in several color variants: including pink gold and twilight. The dimensions of the Huawei Mate 20 Pro are 157.20 x 72.30 x 8.60 mm. The bezels on the front of the device are extremely narrow, which allows for a diagonal display size of 6.39 inches. The screen is made using OLED technology, and its resolution is 1140×3120 pixels. It can be immediately acknowledged that the display in the Huawei Mate 20 Lite features very good color reproduction and proper contrast.

    The fingerprint reader in the Mate 20 Pro is located in the screen, but it is not visible on it, as it is located directly beneath it. However, the problem may be that it occupies only a small part of the screen, making it difficult to hit without looking.

    One thing that undoubtedly catches the eye is the arrangement of the cameras on the back of the device. Three cameras and one flash are arranged in a 2×2 system, which looks very interesting. It deserves praise that Huawei does not copy the layout/design of the rear panel from other companies’ devices, but creates its own, original solutions. Unfortunately, we cannot say the same about the front panel, which is a copy of many current smartphones – referring to the ubiquitous notch.

    The Huawei Mate 20 Pro is equipped with face unlock features, which are based not only on the camera but also on a module that builds a map of the face. The manufacturers stated that they are confident enough in their technology that, in addition to standard use for unlocking the device, it can also be used for payments, logging into banks, etc.

    The Mate 20 Pro will run on Android 9.0 Pie. The device is equipped with the latest processor used in Android smartphones, the Kirin 980. It also has 6 or 8 GB of RAM and, depending on the version, 128 or 256 GB for user files. Interestingly, Huawei decided to give users the option to expand the memory of their Mate 20 Pro via a nanoSD memory card.

    The battery capacity is 4200 mAh and it can also be charged wirelessly. What distinguishes this battery is the ability for super-fast charging – in half an hour, the battery is supposed to be charged to 70 percent thanks to the 40-watt charger included in the package. The Mate 20 Pro can also function as a wireless charger – for a watch, headphones, or another smartphone that supports wireless charging.

    The Huawei Mate 20 Pro does not have a headphone jack, but it does have a USB-C port intended for charging the smartphone. It also supports all the latest wireless connectivity standards, including LTE and NFC (used for wireless payments).

    Summary:

    • dimensions 157.80 x 72.30 x 8.60 mm

On one hand, the device has so many interesting features and is equipped with such good components that it is clear what you are paying for. However, will it win over the market and top the popularity rankings? That is still unknown, and whether it is worth buying must be decided by each individual.
