A niche phone just got more niche - but if you know you want 5G and the biggest screen in town, the Mate 20 X 5G won't disappoint.

My advice: You'd better go for the normal Mate 20 X, it's only half the price.

The Mate 20 X 5G is a strange beast. On the one hand, it's the perfect streaming and gaming device, poised to take advantage of fast data speeds thanks to its huge screen and ample power. On the other, the 4G version packs a bigger battery and costs half the price in the UK. So while in isolation it's a great phone, until 5G coverage improves, or its price goes down...

If you're still straining at the leash for some 5G action, however, I'd advise choosing the Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ 5G instead. It works out significantly cheaper, plus it's a much more enticing phone overall.
