The camera has a light sensitivity up to ISO 102400 and alongside the 3X optical zoom, offers 5x lossless hybrid zoom, and 10x digital zoom.

The P20 Pro offers 4D Predictive Focus, said to provide instant focus with motion prediction, and supports 6-axis stabilisation and 960fps super slow motion video recording. It also offers 'Master AI' scene recognition, with Huawei boasting of recognition for over 500 scenarios in 19 categories. On the front, the smartphone has a a 24.8-megapixel camera. The P20 Pro is IP67 dust and water resistant, and is powered by a 4000mAh battery with support for Huawei’s SuperCharge fast charging that is said to deliver a 58 percent charge in just 30 minutes.

The P20 Pro can be converted to a desktop with a Type-C to HDMI cable with the Huawei PC Mode, which works similar to Samsung DeX platform. It supports multi-tasking and multiple windows, and is capable of handling two different tasks at the same time, apart from emulating a keyboard and touchpad on the smartphone itself.

Now coming to the Huawei P20 Lite runs EMUI 8.0 on top of Android 8.0 Oreo. The smartphone comes with a 5.84-inch full-HD+ (1080x2280 pixels) FullView display with 19:9 aspect ratio.
