Techweez | Saruni Maina

There's really no one thing that I can pick and say I hate about the P20 Lite. The phone comes with all the traditional bells and whistles of a 2018 mid-range smartphone.

NotebookCheck | Mike Wobker

The Huawei P20 Lite is a smartphone for those without the need for complex 3D applications who are looking for a day-to-day device that has good performance and an appealing design.

TechRadar | Jon Mundy

The Huawei P20 Lite supplies a little iPhone X design magic at a third of the price, but with limited notch compatibility and sub-par performance it somehow manages to feel a little expensive.

Mr Phone | Ershad Kaleebullah

Buy the P20 Lite only if you want your phone to make an impression. Also, the P20 Lite is one of the very few compact phones. The phone's overall dimensions makes it easy to hold and use with one hand. Therefore folks who lament the fact that most phones are ginormous these days, can pick up the P20 Lite instead.

India Today | Saurabh Singh

The Huawei P20 Lite is an attractive phone, but sadly, it's a notch below the competition and a little hard to recommend what with Huawei's own phones like the Honor 7X and Honor 9 Lite offering more bang for your buck at lower prices.

NDTV Gadgets | Shobhit Varma

If you want a modern-looking phone with a great display, the Huawei P20 Lite is a good choice. However,the Redmi Note 5 Pro is hard to beat as an all-rounder, and costs quite a bit less.

Huawei P20 Lite, a smartphone that seems to be the jack of all trades, but master of none.

Trusted Reviews | Alex Todd

The Huawei P20 Lite has some of the nicest fit and finish in the mid-range space, plus some powerful features that set it apart from the competition – but an older processor means its days are numbered.

Recombu | Chris Barraclough

The Huawei P20 Lite is a more budget-friendly version of the standard P20 flagship phone, offering stripped-back specs and some surprises. All the same, this smartphone is perfectly fine as an everyday blower, even up to the challenges of online gaming and capturing good-looking photos of your wretched offspring.

GadgetMatch | Daniel Morial

Well, if you value design more, the P20 Lite's premium build is its key selling point. It basically has the body of the regular P20 but with midrange specifications.

Gadgets Now | Aabhas Sharma

a smartphone that will generate curiosity but might not impress the lot. This is partly down to its looks and display as the camera doesn't really get you excited. There aren't faults with its performance but somehow the smartphone falls short of being the 'real deal'.

AndroidPit | Jessica Murgie

This is a mid-range device that has a premium look and that overall fulfills its mission. We do, however, remain somewhat disappointed by this device that doesn't in any way stand out from the competition.

How HandsetExpert Works: We don't run ads on the site, or charge users to use the site. The site is funded using commission links, where we may receive a commission if a phone or tariff is purchased via HandsetExpert. Our editorial, phone scoring and recommendation system and deal-finding algorithms are not affected by this; we are fiercely committed to providing unbiased, independent information.

Important notes

  • We aim to compare as many tariffs in the marketplace from the UK as possible. However, we do not include every package (e.g. legacy tariffs no longer available, or tariffs only available to existing/specific customers), nor do we detail every aspect of every tariff (e.g. international out of bundle rates, on-network minutes, etc).
  • SIM Only deals do not include plans shorter than 30 days or Pay As You Go rates.
  • We work really hard to get accurate prices from as many providers as possible, but some deals or providers may not be included; if there’s anything we’ve missed then please get in touch and let us know.
  • Whenever we can, we will let you know if a deal is time limited (such as a flash deal), and when the deal expires.
  • For tariffs which offer "unlimited" allowances, there may be times where traffic management or fair usage policies apply.
  • Additional charges for payment methods other than direct debit and for itemised/paper billing may apply.
  • Data only SIM cards, mobile broadband packages, and pay monthly tablets are currently not included in the comparison.
  • Out of bundle charges are not included in the calculation of Average Monthly Cost.
  • Contracts may not be available for some phone models in all colours and/or sizes, and a small number may only be available either as a pay monthly contract or a contract free handset, but not both.
  • Providers may increase the cost of your contract by RPI (inflation). However, if prices are increased that then cause a materially detrimental impact, you have the right to exit your contract without penalty. More details available from Ofcom plus comparative information on customer service and complaints handling & their guide on how to complain.
  • Ofcom runs a voluntary accreditation scheme for digital comparison tools (DCTs) for telephone, broadband and pay-TV, and has confirmed that this DCT meets the criteria for accreditation. For further details about the scheme, including the criteria that DCTs must meet, visit the price comparison page on the Ofcom website.
