Huawei launches new P20 smartphone series

Notably, the P20 Pro has three cameras at the rear while the P20 has a more typical dual-camera system. The system entails an 8-megapixel telephoto lens, as well as a 20-megapixel monochrome sensor and a 40-megapixel RGB one.

The hotly-anticipated Huawei P20 and P20 Pro look set to be two of the best smartphones for 2018.

It also enables long-range photography of up to 5x hybrid zoom as well as a highly sensitive image sensor of 1/1.7 inches model to capture low-light images and photos with up to ISO 102400.

The Huawei P20 and Huawei P20 Pro feature a 24-megapixel selfie camera with AI beautification and 3D portrait lighting.

Overall, you should see incredible photos out of the Huawei P20 Pro. The phone has a 5.8-inch Full HD+ (2240×1080) IPS display with an 18.7:9 aspect ratio, a PenTile RGBW matrix, and 429 PPI.

On the video front, the Huawei P20 and P20 Pro have six axis stabilization and can shoot 960fps video (for 0.25 seconds) in 720p, joining the likes of the Galaxy S9 and the Xperia XZ Premium in offering this feature. The rest of the features include USB type C port, no headphone jack and they run Android 8.1 out of the box. The P20 Pro has a first-ever triple camera setup on the back. The wonderful thing about a 40MP sensor is that even if it's cropped to one fifth the size, you're still left with an 8MP photo that can fill a 4K display.

There are all the usual colour options for both phones as well, but Huawei has also introduced a brand-new colour called "twilight" which you can see above.

The Huawei P20 Pro has now been announced, officially taking the spot of top flagship from the Chinese smartphone manufacturer.

Russia's ambassador warns the expulsions were a grave mistake and that Russian Federation will retaliate. Britain has already expelled 23 Russian diplomats, with Moscow retaliating with a tit-for-tat move.

The P20 Pro is slightly larger with a 6.1-inch display.

"In its implementation, Huawei's in-display sensor allows users to wake up the phone just by dangling a finger above the display, and then touching it to unlock the device via biometric authentication". One or two will no longer do.

Huawei have incorporated what they're calling "light fusion technology" to join 4 pixels of the same colour together together in order to capture more light.

Huawei, the biggest smartphone maker in China, and the one company whose products you can't really buy over in the U.S., is ready to unveil its best answer to the iPhone X and Galaxy S9. In fact, DxOMark is quite confident that the triple camera setup of the phone is an actual game changer.

The P20 comes in Black, Champagne Gold, Pink Gold, Midnight Blue, and Twilight, while the P20 Pro comes in Black, Midnight Blue, Pink Gold, and Twilight.

In addition, Huawei also showed off its third-generation Porsche Design Mate RS smartphone.

KitGuru says: While both devices look good, the P20 Pro is undoubtedly the most interesting thanks to its triple camera configuration. While the Huawei P20 is said to come with a price tag of Euro 649 (roughly Rs. 52,200) for the 4GB RAM/ 128GB storage variant, and the 6GB RAM/ 128GB storage model of the Huawei P20 Pro is said to be available at Euro 899 (roughly Rs. 72,400).
