Unboxing The Huawei P20 Lite
Huawei launched the Huawei P20 Lite along with the P20 Pro in India on the 24th of April. The Huawei P20 Lite is a budget offering from Huawei which yet again, runs on the Kirin 659 chipset. However, there are a lot of new features and design changes that make it an exciting prospect, especially at its price of Rs 19999. Both the smartphones went on sale via Amazon on 7th May and there will be more sales in the coming weeks.

The P20 Lite truly feels like a ‘Lite’ version of the P20 Pro. The Huawei P20 Pro has been grabbing all the spotlight with its Twilight colour variant and the triple-camera setup on the back. However, the P20 Lite appears to be the smartphone to get with its design and price in India.

There will be a few documents in the retail unit which we did not have in our box.

The Huawei P20 Lite has a striking design that isn’t matched by many smartphones in this price category. It has an all-glass design with an aluminium frame that has the same colour as the glass so it doesn’t stick out like a sore thumb. The dual-camera setup on the back is placed vertically which, ever since the iPhone X was launched, has become the norm. The fingerprint sensor is placed on the back in the middle at a very comfortable position. Thanks to its different texture, it is also very easy to recognise the fingerprint sensor when it is in your pocket.

The power button is situated on the right-hand side of the device along with the volume rockers. The left-hand side houses the SIM tray and that is it. The headphone jack (yes, it’s there) and the USB C port are situated at the bottom of the smartphone.

The 5.84 inch LTPS IPS LCD display is powered by a 3000 mAh battery with support for SuperCharge. The smartphone has an unusual 19:9 aspect ratio thanks to that notch. This means that even after stretching a YouTube video, it won’t use the entire screen real estate. However, on the brighter side, the notch will be hidden at all times while consuming visual content.

The P20 Lite runs on the HiSilicon Kirin 659 chipset which is coupled with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. The storage is expandable via hybrid microSD card slot.

The P20 Lite has a 16MP primary sensor with an f/2.2 aperture coupled with a 2MP depth sensor. On the front is a 24MP camera with an f/2.0 aperture. Both the front and back cameras record 1080P videos while the front camera also has 3D Portrait Lighting, similar iPhone’s Portrait Lighting.

At a price of Rs 19999, the P20 Lite’s competition is dated. The design and build quality is somewhat matched by the Moto X4 which also has a glass build but that is about it. The P20 Lite might be the smartphone to get at this price but, we will leave that judgement for our in-depth review.

Huawei P20 Lite, Huawei P20 Pro Launched In India Starting Rs 19999

Three weeks after launching the Huawei P20 and P20 Pro in Paris, Huawei has launched the Huawei P20 Lite and P20 Pro in India. The P20 Lite is priced at Rs 19999 and the Huawei P20 Pro will retail for Rs 64999. Both the smartphones will be exclusively available online via Amazon from the 3rd of May.

The Huawei P20 Pro is the flagship smartphone from Huawei that has grabbed a lot of headlines recently. Apart from the striking design of the device, it is also the first-ever smartphone with a triple-camera setup on the back. The Huawei P20 Pro will also be available in the new Twilight colour which, so far, is one of the most interesting colour variants of a smartphone.

The Huawei P20 Pro has a 6.1 inch RGBW full-colour OLED display with a 2244 x 1080 px resolution. This translates into a 19:9 aspect ratio which has its advantages. The Huawei P20 Pro also has an IP67 rating for water and dust resistance.

The Huawei P20 Lite has a smaller 5.84 inch LTPS IPS LCD display with a 2280 x 1080 px resolution. The 19:9 aspect ratio will come in handy when users decide to hide the notch. Once hidden, the device moves to a more conventional 18:9 aspect ratio as the screen real estate on either side of the notch is blackened out.

The Huawei P20 Lite runs on the HiSilicon Kirin 659 Octa-core chipset while the P20 Pro runs on the HiSilicon Kirin 970 chipset with NPU (Neural Processing Unit). Huawei has talked a lot about the integration of AI within the Huawei software. A lot of AI features can be found in the camera app like scene detection, portrait lighting etc. The Huawei P20 Lite has 4GB RAM and 64GB storage while the P20 Pro has 6GB RAM and 128GB of onboard storage.

On the back of the smartphones is where the two differentiate the most. The Huawei P20 Pro has a 40MP primary sensor, which supports 5x hybrid zoom. There is a secondary 8MP sensor, which offers 3x optical zoom, which also helps to create portrait mode. Similarly, there is a third sensor with 20MP resolution. Unlike the other two sensors, this is a monochrome sensor which helps to capture contrast and sharpness. Another mindboggling feature of this camera setup is a maximum ISO of 102,400.

The Huawei P20 Lite has a 16MP RGB sensor and a 2MP depth sensor. In fact, this dual camera setup is similar to the one found on the Honor 7X. The Huawei P20 Lite and P20 Pro have a 24MP front-facing camera with 3D Portrait Lighting effect. This is very similar to the Portrait Lighting effect found on the iPhone X.

At a price of Rs 19999, the Huawei P20 Lite is a solid offering. The Huawei P20 Pro, on the other hand, will go toe-to-toe with the likes of Galaxy S9+ and iPhone 8 Plus. The registrations for both the smartphones have started and the smartphones will go on sale on the 3rd of May via Amazon.

Huawei P20 And P20 Pro Will Be Amazon-Exclusive

The launch of the Huawei P20 and P20 Pro in India is just a few days away. The company has sent out press invites for a launch event on the 24th of April. Both the smartphones were launched globally on the 27th of March in Paris. Now, according to a listing on Amazon, the Huawei P20 and P20 Pro will be sold in India via Amazon exclusively.

So far, the Huawei P20 Pro, with its triple camera setup, has been well-received. It is the first-ever smartphone with a triple-camera setup on the back and offers a great build quality with an all-glass design. The Huawei P20 Pro has the same build quality and design albeit, a smaller display and a dual-camera setup on the back. Both the smartphones also sport a notch which houses the front camera, earpiece and the necessary sensors. Huawei, however, has included an option to hide the notch via software but, that also means that you lose a bit of screen real estate.

The pricing of the P20 and P20 Pro will be key for the Indian market. The P20 retails for a starting price of 649 Euros (Rs 52800 approx.) and the P20 Pro is priced at 899 Euros (Rs 73000 approx.). Huawei’s sub-brand Honor has been very competitive with its pricing in India especially with the Honor 9 Lite, 7X and View10. Hence, it is fair to assume that the price of the Huawei P20 and Huawei P20 Pro won’t be a direct conversion of their European prices.

The launch of the P20 and P20 Pro will reveal the most important aspect of the Indian market, the price. If priced competitively, the Huawei P20 and P20 can do very well in the India smartphone market.

Huawei P20, P20 Pro To Launch In India On April 24th

Three weeks after the global launch of the Huawei P20 and P20 Pro, the company is now all set to launch them in India. A few days ago, Huawei India’s Twitter account teased a possible launch of the new smartphones and now, the company has sent out press invites for an event. The invite does not explicitly mentions the P20 smartphones but, has the tagline, “See Mooore.” This is the same promotional tagline that was used during the global launch of the Huawei P20 series.

The pricing of the Huawei P20 and P20 Pro will be key for the Indian market. The Huawei P20 retails for a starting price of 649 Euros (Rs 52800 approx.) and the P20 Pro is priced at 899 Euros (Rs 73000 approx.). Huawei’s sub brand Honor has been very competitive with its pricing in India especially with the Honor 9 Lite, 7X and View10. Hence, it is fair to assume that the price of the Huawei P20 and Huawei P20 Pro won’t be a direct conversion of their European prices.

The Huawei P20 Pro is definitely the bigger star of the two smartphones. It is the first-ever smartphone with a triple-camera setup on the back and offers a great build quality with an all-glass design. The Huawei P20 Pro has the same build quality and design albeit, a smaller display and a dual-camera setup on the back. Both the smartphones also sport a notch which houses the front camera, earpiece and the necessary sensors. Huawei, however, has included an option to hide the notch via software but, that also means that you lose a bit of screen real estate.

In the coming days, another highly anticipated flagship device will launch as well, the OnePlus 6. This time around, it could be priced higher than its predecessors and could cross the Rs 40000 mark for the first time in India. If so, it will be more comparable to the Huawei P20 which is also expected to be priced around Rs 45000.

How the Indian consumers perceive the P20 and P20 will largely depend on the pricing of the two devices. If priced competitively, the two phones have enough features to make a mark in the Indian smartphone market.

Huawei P20 Pro India Launch Teased By Huawei On Twitter

On the 27th of March, Huawei launched the Huawei P20 Pro and P20 at an event in Paris. The smartphones were subsequently listed on Huawei India’s official website but, there was no confirmation about their launch in India. Now, Huawei India has posted a teaser on Twitter which hints at the launch of the Huawei P20 Pro and P20 in India.

Is it a phone? Is it a DSLR? It is the best of both worlds! #SeeMooore #HuaweiP20 pic.twitter.com/GfrZATMstB

— Huawei India (@HuaweiIndia) April 13, 2018

The Huawei P20 has a starting price of 649 Euros (Rs 52000 approx.) while the P20 Pro costs 899 Euros (Rs 72000). In India, however, the smartphones are expected to be priced much more competitively. For reference, we expect the Huawei P20 Pro to be priced closer to the Samsung Galaxy S9.

Huawei P20 Pro: A Triple-Camera Flagship Like No Other

The Huawei P20 Pro, months before its official launch, started gaining attention for its possible camera implementation. The rumours were confirmed at the launch when the P20 Pro was unveiled with a triple-camera setup on the back. Moreover, the camera implementation is not just a gimmick and every sensor solves its purpose. The Huawei P20 Pro has a 3X optical zoom compared to the 2X zoom found in most smartphones.

The smartphone has a 6.1 inch OLED display with a 2280 x 1080 px resolution. Under the hood, the smartphone has the HiSilicon Kirin 970 Octa-core chipset with 6GB RAM and 128GB storage. The P20 Pro also has a notch on the top portion of the display. However, Huawei has included an option for either enabling or disabling the notch via software which should please everyone on the “notch spectrum.”

Powering the smartphone is a 4000 mAh battery with SuperCharge technology. The smartphone, however, misses out on wireless charging despite its all-glass build. One more thing that is unique about the Huawei P20 and the P20 Pro is the design. Just like most of the flagship smartphone these devices have an all-glass design with a one of a kind Twilight finish, which makes the smartphone alter colour in different lighting condition.

Huawei P20 Pro, P20 Will Soon Launch In India

On the 27th of March, Huawei launched the P20 and P20 Pro at an event in Paris. At the launch, the company announced their global prices but, skipped the availability details in India. Now, the official website of Huawei India has listed a teaser of the Huawei P20 Pro. The teaser, however, doesn’t mention any date of launch or pricing details.

It looks like Huawei will host a separate event in India to launch its marquee smartphones for 2018. For a price sensitive market like India, it will be interesting to see how Huawei prices their smartphones. The Huawei P20 Pro’s official price is EUR 900, which translates to about Rs 72000.

The Huawei P20 Pro is the first-ever Android smartphone to have a triple-camera setup on the back. The three sensors are used for zooming in, taking bokeh shots and the monochrome sensor helps in better colour reproduction. The Huawei P20, on the other hand, has a dual-camera setup but, identical design to the Pro model.

Both the Huawei P20 and P20 Pro also sport a notch. At the event, Huawei boasted about the fact that it has a smaller notch than the iPhone X. While we have criticised companies for blatantly copying the notch but, not getting rid of the chin, a recent Carl Pei interview has given us better insight on the subject. Interestingly, Huawei decided to take advantage of the necessary chin and housed a fingerprint sensor on the front.

Huawei P20 Overview

The device has a 5.84 inch FHD+ 2244 x 1080 px LTPS IPS LCD display with 423 ppi.

Under the hood, the device has a HiSilicon Kirin 970 Octa-core chipset with 4GB RAM and 128GB storage. Additionally, the storage is expandable using a micro SD card (up to 256GB).

The phone has an AI-powered dual Leica camera setup, with a 12MP wide angle lens and a 20MP secondary sensor with an f/1.6 aperture on both the lenses. The device has 1.55 microns pixel size, which is bigger than the 1.4-micron pixel lens found on the Galaxy S9.

The phone has a 24MP front-facing camera with 3D facial enhancement, to improve the selfie-taking experience.

Huawei P20 Pro Overview

The Huawei P20 Pro has a 6.1 inch RGBW full-colour OLED display with a 2244 x 1080 px resolution.

Powering the smartphone is a 4000 mAh battery with support for SuperCharge, a proprietary fast charging technology. Interestingly, the Huawei P20 Pro also has an IP67 rating for water and dust resistance.

The Huawei P20 Pro has a 40MP primary sensor, which supports 5x hybrid zoom. There is a secondary 8MP sensor, which offers 3x optical zoom, which also helps to create portrait mode.

Huawei P20 Lite Goes On Sale Before Official Launch
Huawei is all set to launch the Huawei P20 series on the 27th of March in France. However, even before the official launch, the device is already available for sale on the Huawei Poland website. This is a strange move from the brand, which has been creating the hype about the device from last few weeks. In fact, people have started uploading the unboxing videos of the device.

The Huawei P20 Lite is the most affordable smartphone in the lot, which comes with a design similar to the other two models with a cut down in the hardware. The device is available for PLN 1599 (Rs 30,335) in Poland via authorised resellers.

Specifications of the Huawei P20 Lite

The design is similar to the Honor 9 Lite, with a glass back, glass front, and a metallic mid-frame. In fact, the fingerprint scanner is also placed on the backside of the smartphone.

The Huawei P20 Lite comes with 5.84 inch IPS LCD FHD+ 2280×1080 px resolution display. Under the hood, the device has a HiSilicon Kirin 659 Octa-core chipset with 4GB RAM and 64GB onboard storage.
