In our review of the Huawei P20 Pro, we said, "The P20 Pro is a gorgeous look smartphone as well, one with a distinctive colour treatment. Huawei has put the very best hardware into the P20 Pro which results in extremely good performance for the most part. Some aspects of gaming could have been better, but after learning that the phone is not yet running the final version of EMUI, I wouldn’t be surprised if these minor problems cease to exist. Honestly, in day to day use, you’re not even going to come across any glitches. Add unparalleled imaging performance to the mix and there is little reason to discount the Huawei P20 Pro as a worthy member of the elite flagship club." You can read the review here.
