According to our mobile phone expert
The Huawei P20 Pro is the first smartphone to feature 3 cameras, at 40, 16, and 8 megapixels respectively, on the back of the device. The camera recognizes up to 20 different scenarios, so it can help you to take better photos. Thanks to the partial optical zoom, the details in your zoomed-in photos will still be clear. That means you can effortlessly take professional-looking photos, and easily create a bokeh effect, for example. You can take crystal-clear selfies with the 24-megapixel selfie camera, and store your photos in the ample memory of 128GB. Thanks to the large 4000mAh battery, you can easily last a day and a half without charging your phone. In addition, you can switch between apps quickly thanks to the 6GB of RAM.

Only recently used, but only positive experiences. I stepped out of Apple's walled garden after ten years and I don't regret it. A top-notch device with a great camera.

I don't write a review very quickly, but I was so enthusiastic about the Huawei P20 Pro that I wanted to share my story. My previous phones were a Samsung S7 Edge and a Samsung S8+. I always found the latter particularly frustrating, especially because of the fingerprint on the back and the increasingly shorter battery life. Facial recognition also didn't work well, so I kept typing the code to unlock. The whole Samsung shell has never really appealed to me, and I have always replaced it with another Launcher.
The Huawei P20 Pro is close to perfection for me. Only points to improve would be an in-screen fingerprint scanner, and wireless charging. It seems that Huawei is much like Apple, and that the icons, themes and controls are very similar to those of the iPhone. I don't have much experience with iPhones myself, but if so, I'd say it's better to have a good copy than a bad idea. Everything fits and looks nice.
Furthermore, the screen has a so-called notch (nodge), but that is easy to adjust by making the pieces to the left and right of the nodge black. There you will see your notifications, remaining battery and time. Seems very logical to me.
Where many other brands choose to use the full screen for display, Huawei keeps a small piece for a button on the front. I really find this 1000x more convenient to use than software buttons where you always have to swipe to see a button, or where you still lose a piece of screen to always show them. With Huawei, you can also set the button in such a way that you get all three functions of the normal Android buttons with one button. Short press is back, long press is home, and swiping is switching between applications. It really couldn't be simpler, it works very intuitively and easily.
In addition, that one button also contains the fingerprint scanner. Not only does it work super fast, but it's also much easier that it's on the front. I have various apps (eg from the bank) that are secured with a fingerprint. With my Samsung S8 I always had to pick up the device or take it in my other hand, look for the fingerprint and then wait a while. That gets pretty annoying in the long run. With the Huawei you can directly use the scanner with both left and right.
The camera of the Huawei P20 Pro has already received a lot of praise, and rightly so. What beautiful photos, and how easy the camera is to operate! Entirely right. Finally, the battery life. Those were reasonable with the Samsung S7 and S8, but it seemed to get a little worse there. In particular, the S8 I had to top up at the last standard during the day. That was the main reason for me to switch. The P20 can easily last a day, and then I am a pretty intensive user.
I could go on and on about everything I like about this device. But I think these are the most distinctive things. In short, the ideal device for me, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for an easy-to-use phone with an excellent camera and good battery life.
