How Does Huawei Mate 20 Pro Compete With Other Flagships? [Specs Comparison]

Back in October, Huawei unveiled new members to its Mate family — Huawei Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro. Today, Huawei has officially released Huawei Mate 20 Pro in India for the starting price of Rs 69,990

While the Huawei Mate 20 is larger in size, having a 6.5-inch, the star of the series is the Huawei Mate 20 Pro. The device bundles all the latest tech features that you could expect from a premium smartphone.

It comes with three rear cameras that offer different focal lengths. One could say that the camera comes very close to Google Pixel 3 XL. It also carries an in-display fingerprint sensor just like OnePlus 6T. The Mate 20 Pro comes with the latest 7nm Kirin 980 processor that works phenomenally fast like the iPhone XS A12 Bionic chip.

As for the display, it has a 6.4-inch OLED display. Not to mention the 4200 mAh battery and the ability to charge other phones via Wireless Reverse Charging. All in all, Huawei Mate 20 Pro is truly a flagship killer.

We have heard the term “flagship killer” for the entire winter this year. Frankly, Huawei might be a little late to the whole premium device competition. Smartphones like iPhone XS, Samsung Galaxy Note 9, Google Pixel 3 XL and others have already filled up the market spaces.

Here is a specification comparison of Huawei Mate 20 Pro and other premium devices. Let’s see if the Huawei device is worth its heavy price tag —
