Description

The Mate 20 Pro is Huawei's answer to the iPhone XS Max. It sports a large, high-res OLED display with a notch at the top housing a face-recognition system similar to the iPhone's Face ID. In addition, the Huawei Mate 20 Pro is one of the first phones with an in-display fingerprint reader. At the back, a triple camera with 3x zoom and wide-angle lenses gives you plenty of creative freedom. The phone's huge, 4200 mAh battery can be charged from zero to 70% in 30 minutes thanks to a super-fast, 40W charging system.
