Huawei Releases A Slick Mate 20 Pro Smartphone

Reigning Chinese smartphone manufacturer Huawei Technologies has released a slick Mate 20 Pro which is being rated as the best Android phone in 2018 due to its advanced specs.

The first notable hardware future on the Huawei Mate 20 Pro is the increased screen size which has been enlarged to 6.53 inches as compared to previous models with 6.39 inches.

With its curved glass display and coloured aluminium frame, it’s very easy to mistake the Huawei Mate 20 Pro for a Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus at first glance.

The Mate 20 Pro has a second sensor to allow for 3D facial recognition functionality, which can provide more security than the Mate 20’s image-based facial unlock.

If you are buying straight from the box, the Mate 20 Pro runs Huawei’s EMUI 9.0 interface, which is based on Android 9 Pie.

The phone is also equipped with Huawei’s latest Kirin 980 processor which was announced as the industry’s first 7nm SoC at IFA earlier this year. Apple has since released the iPhone XS with the A12 Bionic that’s also based on the 7nm process, but there isn’t any other Android phone that’s using it at the moment.

The new processor allows for exceptional snappy general performance throughout the Mate 20 Pro’s Operating System, and thanks to its machine learning smarts, the phone will feel at its quickest when running your most-used apps.

The Kirin 980 has eight cores arranged in the big.LITTLE configuration, all of which are based on the latest ARM developments. It’s the first processor equipped with new ARM Cortex A76 cores as well as the Mali G76 GPU. The Kirin 980 features four Cortex A76 cores and four A55 cores.

The above advanced specs give the latest Huawei smartphone superfast speeds rating from claims that the Kirin 980 processor is a lot more power efficiency of 57% on the processor side and 178% on the GPU, to be exact.

The Mate Pro carries a monster battery of 4,200mAh capacity, making it the best smartphone with extended battery life cycle after Apple’s latest iPhone XS Max which is being said to have an average of 3 days battery life cycle.

The Mate 20 Pro still has a 40MP primary camera as well as a telephoto lens that’s fixed at 3X optical zoom. This time, however, Huawei has replaced its usual monochrome camera sensor with an ultra-wide sensor that’s similar to what we’ve seen on the LG’s V40.

From its in-display fingerprint scanner to its reverse wireless charging functionality, the Mate 20 Pro is a phone that feels truly futuristic. Add to this an astonishing triple lens camera setup with a 40MP primary sensor, an enormous 4,200mAh battery and a stunning QHD+ OLED display, and what you have is a phone can stand toe-to-toe with any other handset on the market.
