Huawei P20 Pro – Strong design, strong camera
The camera of the P20 is very strong, at least the specifications are impressive: 3 lenses from Leica provide 40MP recordings. With this camera, the colors of the pictures look very realistic and leaves nothing to be desired at the moment.
The back of the Huawei P20 is covered with a fascinating coating that gives a different color depending on the angle of incidence of light.
The “Notch” – the cut-out display on the top – has already shown on the Essential Phone (Amazon) and later on the iPhone X that there are no problems with operating the phone.

But we will see how Huawei is handling the update policy this time.
