Huawei P20 render surfaces with triple camera setup on back, fingerprint scanner in front

Yesterday, we showed you renders of the Huawei P20 Plus, which displayed the triple camera setup in back along with a front-facing notch. Today, renders of the Huawei P20 have surfaced including a 360 degree video that allows you to see the render from all angles. Once again, we can see the three cameras that adorn the back of the unit. Unlike the P20 Plus, a front-facing fingerprint scanner can be seen. And yes, it appears that a notch will be present on this model, too.

The Huawei P20 will carry a 5.7-inch display with a resolution of 1080 x 2280. That would give the screen an aspect ratio of 19:9. Under the hood will be the Kirin 970 chipset, which includes dedicated AI components and an octa-core CPU running at a clock speed of 2.36GHz. The Mali-G72 MP12 GPU is also on board. One of the sensors that makes up the dual camera setup in front, will reportedly allow the P20 to feature a facial recognition system. At the top of the phone, it appears as though we see a 3.5mm headphone jack although some say that it is an IR Blaster that appears.

Huawei has already sent out invitations for a media event that will take place in Paris on March 27th. The manufacturer added a couple of clues to the invite that all but officially confirms the triple camera setup for the P20 and P20 Plus.

I wish it didn't come with a bottom bezel, but I'm super intrigued by the 3rd camera... probably an infrared camera for better bokeh effect and night pictures?

Notch for the cameras for the sake of 'screen to body ratio' and yet a relatively huge (For 2018 standards) bottom bezel for that FPS. And the third camera seems like an after thought on a design that happens to be heavily inspired by The iPhone X. The rear panel seems to be made of glass and yet I doubt this thing will have wireless charging. The whole design seems kinda... Desperate! If you're going to copy something, why not copy your own 'kind' like The Samsung S8 or perhaps the excellent LG G6? Oh well, Monkey sees, monkey does! If only that monkey copy another monkey and not a bloody moose or a baboon or something because it's rather futile... G'Day!

Your analysis is spot-on haha. I must admit that I kind of like the design though.

They should have just continued the mate 10 pro's design. That is the best looking phone out there now and doesn't have a boring black near bezel less front. Because of what apple is doing, instead of manufacturers creating their own unique design and innovate on more useful features they just copy one another. It's also sad on how consumers make a purchase these days, they care more about the trend rather than practicality and what really suits them

i hate Apple design, but, for dumb people its amazing and sells a lot! so they are trying to sell to the same dumb people that uses iPhones. LG G6 is great phone for smart people and sales are really bad, so no copy.
