HUAWEI Mate 20 Series

Huawei Consumer Business Group (BG), on Tuesday, unveiled the HUAWEI Mate 20 Series that offers unparalleled battery lives and powerful camera performance.

The HUAWEI Mate 20 Series encompasses four devices: HUAWEI Mate 20, HUAWEI Mate 20 Pro, HUAWEI Mate 20 X and PORSCHE DESIGN HUAWEI Mate 20 RS. The devices are available in three sixes –  6.53-inch, 6.39-inch and 7.2-inch.

The new series is powered by Huawei’s densest and highest performing system on chip (SoC) to date – the Kirin 980  – that offers improved performance and an unprecedented smooth user experience.

The Matrix Camera System includes Leica Ultra Wide Angle Lens that lets users not only see wider, but also closer with its new macro distance capability.

The HUAWEI Mate 20 Series also features an AI Portrait Color video mode. Using AI, the HUAWEI Mate 20 Series can isolate human subjects and desaturate the colors around them to dramatically highlight the person.

“The HUAWEI Mate 20 Series is designed to be the best ‘mate’ of consumers, accompanying and empowering them to enjoy a richer, more fulfilled life with their higher intelligence, unparalleled battery lives and powerful camera performance,” said Richard Yu, CEO, Huawei Consumer BG.

Faster downloading speed, high quality picture and 3D Face Unlock

According to the Chinese firm, HUAWEI Mate 20 Pro is the world’s first smartphone to support the 4.5G LTE Cat. 21 standard, allowing consumers to experience download speeds of up to 1.4Gbps. It also supports the fastest Wi-Fi connection speeds–2GB footage requires only 10 seconds to download

The smartphone is equipped with a 40MP main camera, a 20MP ultra wide-angle camera, and an 8MP telephoto camera. Together, the trio of lenses supports a wide range of focal lengths (equivalent to the performance of a 16-270mm zoom lens), enabling it to mimic the results from professional cameras.

HUAWEI Mate 20 Pro and PORSCHE DESIGN HUAWEI Mate 20 RS both support 3D Face Unlock. The solution quickly and securely authenticates users within 0.6s at a false acceptance rate of below 1/1,000,000.
