Huawei Mate 20

AnandTech | Andrei Frumusanu

The regular Mate 20 makes for a much more interesting buy, and the one aspect where the phone just outright dominates is battery life. Here I think most buyers will be extremely happy with their purchase, and I think Huawei offers an overall good package.

The Huawei Mate 20 offers lightning-fast performance and a comprehensive list of features, with a clever bill of compromises to help meet its price tag. It's a genuine OnePlus 6T rival.

The Mate 20 is an awesome phone packing premium performance for a high price.

It's an awesome phone, but no one really notices it because it's overshadowed by a Pro version that's even more awesome.

The Huawei Mate 20 distills much of what makes the Mate 20 Pro an excellent phone into something that's different, though not necessarily inferior. It costs less, offers more screen and has a headphone jack.

The Huawei Mate 20 is a fantastic smartphone, but one which forgoes some of the Mate 20 Pro's premium features. The saving is worth it in our opinion though.

The Mate 20 is a pretty wide phone and offers a very large display for those who want a big phone. It's not very comfortable in my pants pocket though and is a bit bulky to hold in my hand.

The Huawei Mate 20 is a capable, high performance phone that proves less tech can sometimes mean a better user experience.

I'm not going to beat around the bush: when I like something, I really like it. The Huawei Mate 20 has been an extension of my hand for several weeks now. The only problem I have with the Mate 20 is that it's difficult to handle with one hand.

Summing it all up, the Huawei Mate 20 is a big and powerful Android phone... Is it worth paying the full flagship cost for this one? If you value the incredible battery life, the answer to that is yes, certainly.

The Mate 20 does a lot of what makes the Pro so great - but not enough. Unless you're unlucky enough to live somewhere Huawei has deemed the Mate 20 Pro to be off-limits, this isn't the version to buy.
