Huawei P20 Pro vs Mate 10 Pro: Differences That Matter!

Watching this video with a mate 10 pro.... Awesome! 🤞

[@kevrobinson2000]

Good video! I've had the Mate 10 Pro about a week and love it! Im a heavy user and the battery lasts all day. It fully charges in about an hour thanks to Huawei's supercharging technology.

[@jspring86]

Yeah the battery on both these phones go beast mode!

[@kevrobinson2000]

I couldn't decide between the Mate 10 Pro and the S9+. The deciding factor for me was the battery. I'm a heavy user and I usually have to charge my phone twice per day. The 4000 mAh battery and super charging capability on the Mate 10 Pro made my decision easier. I love he S9+, but I put Nova launcher on my Mate 10 Pro and its just awesome! Lots of cool gestures (knuckle, navigation dock, etc.) and a great camera made this my choice for 2018!

[@kevrobinson2000]

Huawei is just as fast if not faster than OP, but Huawei charges a larger battery (4000 mAh) than a OP device (3300mAh) so it does take a little longer. If its just a current charging a battery through a cable, why does an iPhone take so much longer to charge?

[@dentaldoc510]

Hey what about camera result ??

[@StephenKingRocks100]

Yes I have the Huawei Mate 9 and for some reason they send the Mate phones with the camera set at a VERY HIGH saturation level. It's an easy fix. Swipe right on the camera. Scroll all the way down. Click on "Image Adjustment" then you can fix how it will take photos. (My settings that I like mine at are Saturation -1, Contrast +1, Brightness +1)

[@deanomoses51]

Anyone else prefer the mate 10 pro? Also pictures way better

[@jspring86]

Check out the full resolution photos linked in my pinned comment. Zooming in you'll see the P20 Pro is much more detailed. But I do like the Mate 10 Pro design better.

[@akombalasau4022]

Me. I compared the mate 10 pro and p20 pro selfie cam. Mate 10 pro had better selfie shots to be honest. But i think the front for p20 had a little advantage.

[@deyan.chilov]

Yes. I was thinking to get 20 but when I compared them I realised 10 is ways better for me.

[@seba.makron]

OLED display of mate 10 pro!!

[@skwoshi8151]

Exactly, the differences are so slight that it honestly doesn't justify the price increase. Same processor, same battery, same everything. Sure, the back looks strikingly good, but how often do people look at the back of their phones anyways? Plus, you definitely need a case for a fragile, glass back like the P20's. Very slight differences in the cameras but honestly triple cameras are more of a gimmick than an actual feature. Also, the additional AI functionalities of the P20 will also be passed down to the Mate 10 in a software update. I don't see $150 worth of features here!

[@joaoroman9583]

ye, and not even wireless charging on P20 pro

[@TruckerScott..]

Agreed

[@VersedNJ]

Agreed, and to me even more so, I just consider the camera one aspect. People have different needs, I don't take a lot of photo's with my phone. As far as getting another phone right now, I would like to see what the new One Plus 6 is going to be like, the new Nokia's 9 or X and if willing to spend more the Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium.

[@SomethingAlwaysGood]

Not the same processor. Look at the specs again. p20 pro has Hisilicon Kirin 970CPUOcta-core (4x2.4 GHz Cortex-A73 & 4x1.8 GHz Cortex-A53)GPUMali-G72 MP12 with 24 MP camera the other one mate 10 pro has HUAWEI Kirin 970 Octa-core CPU (4 x Cortex A73 2.36 GHz + 4 x Cortex A53 1.8 GHz) + i7 co-processor, Mali-G72 MP12 GPU with 20 MP camera

[@jspring86]

For all intents and purposes the processor performing the majority of CPU tasks is the same. These phones even benchmark within 20 points of one another.

[@23bogarka]

Having both,for me the Mate 10 pro is better in every way,..design,style,camera,battery life..

[@TheTravelingTriplets]

The rear sensor on the Mate 10 Pro is EVERYTHING. It makes all the features on the P20 moot. If they put that on the back again on the next version, it would be great!

[@nighthunder2]

And yet I bought it because it's at the front!

[@chrisyorke116]

I'll stick with the Mate 10 Pro then

[@raph84]

Hmmm 04:00 "I also find it to be a bit of a strange choice to put the front fingerprint sensor on the phone" (...) [continues to use fingerprint sensor instead of on screen buttons for navigation] I guess you demonstrated the reason without mentioning it. If the Mate 10 Pro didn't have a chin, I agree the notch would be silly, but as things are, the notch gives you more screen real estate while there is no difference to the chin, and *even more* by disabling the on screen buttons, so it does exactly what it's supposed to. I have a Mate 10 Pro and am waiting for my preordered twilight P20 Pro, since I am very keen on the camera and prefer navigating without on screen buttons. I switched from an iPhone, so the Android buttons always bugged me.

[@judliew]

you miss one thing Mate 10 has desktop mode when plug in using hdmi

[@vivaiceboy2008]

judah Liew actually P20 pro has that feature too

[@coreycobain666]

Two things struck me. The addition of a slightly bigger lower chin allows for no on screen navigation keys, this outweighs the slight size increase. Of course the majority of people actually do prefer a front fingerprint sensor, though naturally this is subjective. Also why do you guys never just set the screens not to go off? All phone reviewers are constantly tapping and clawing annoyingly at the screens to keep them on. It’s so simple.

[@jspring86]

Mainly because then I forget to go back and change my display settings to time out and drain my battery the next day. KZbin isn't my job and I'm a busy guy so tapping on the screen is a better option for me. Also, you can use in screen navigation keys on the P20 Pro I just elected to use home button based gestures. It can be switched.

[@N-e.o]

Still using my P9 lite, has a headphonejack, NFC, FM radio, fingerprint on the back, good camera..very snappy phone, fast webrosing, all day youtubing and still battery leftovers on the end of the day.. thats all i need in a phone.

[@alyozunu8180]

I thought at the beginning that Huawei's choice was a strange one putting the fingerprint sensor on the front but they did it on purpose for the user to try the new gesture-based navigation via the fingerprint sensor as android is still not made for gesture control.

[@nedimajsic7543]

I have a 10 Mate Pro which unfortunately was dropped and cracked the back and now the mic won't work. I have dropped it about 20 times withh their case on so it's not easily cracked. I love it. The major con I can think about is the video stabilizer, it's no good. Otherwise all good!

[@gbessone]

can you compare the battery life? Are they exactly the same or does the higher resolution on the p20 pro affect it?

[@Jojoeatrer]

fuRy Why is that ?

[@bananana191]

why? can u explain it

[@john74]

Agree totally

[@marinaandersson7300]

Thank you for the great review. I called Huawei, and they recommended to buy the Mate 10 Pro since it has a warranty. I'm tempted to buy the new P30 since it's selling for around $550 . What do you think?

[@mpiloz8016]

I reckon you should take the p30, the performance is a fair bit better, and it will also get OS upgrades longer than the mate 10 pro, I believe support for the mate 10 pro only goes up to Android Q(10), then it's only security patches from there on, and you'll also have a better camera

[@LCTesla]

The nav button / finger scanner on the bezel is good, but the p20 takes the aspect ratio to an even crazier extreme than 18:9 (18.7:9). This is really going in the wrong direction. The extra real estate (to the extent there is any) hardly adds anything useful, just a bigger notification bar and bigger black bars. Regular mate 10 is still my favorite; tiny bezels without all those compromises.

[@Thousandeyes85]

A front facing sensor means more screen real estate due to no onscreen "home, back, apps" buttons. Why is it that no reviewers understand that?

[@gligachaz5047]

Thousandeyes85 They disappear when you really use the full screen though, like when watching video on KZbin.

[@vdubmikey1]

I love my Mate 10 Pro...great price..and the screen doesn't have that slightly yellowy hue that Galaxy S9 / Note 9 have..very bright. The battery life is, as said on many reviews...amazing... and that is a deal breaker for me.. Oh.. and the monochrome camera is great...if like me, you are a bit old school.. hope this helps =)

[@ardent.arch93]

You missed a great chunk of info regarding the difference of the front camera. I hate how reviewers tend to put less importance on the selfie capabilities of a phone.

[@bobbiroberts3240]

How to you activate the five horizontal icons on the main menu of the Huawei P30?

[@Baleur]

3:20 this is actually complete bullshit. Because with that extra 1mm bottom physical bezel, you get a physical home button which can be used as navigation buttons in the software. But with that 1mm shaved off in the Mate 10, you NEED a whole 8mm of screen-real-estate dedicated permanently for the software buttons, which essentially take AWAY 8mm of screen space. So despite the physical display size being smaller on the P20 Pro, it actually has MORE screen real-estate because it doesnt waste 8mm of it on virtual home and navigation buttons. Really makes no sense to shave off 1mm to remove a home button, when it forces you to waste 8mm on virtual buttons. Insane design decision..

[@w0llib]

Think there was a space issue on the P20 and thats why the sensor is on the front bottom and not the back.

[@danielroberts8514]

So would it be fair to say if your not really bothered about camera or fingerprint scanner, get which ever is cheaper

[@nabeelafzal2000]

You did very good comparison. I have both phones but now i am bit confusing which i have to keep with me.

[@iamsuperduper2410]

The software will be updated on mate 10 you should have mentioned it there is also 3x telephoto on p20

Great comparison video Jeff. I do prefer EMUI 8.1 over 8.0. I was going to pick up the Mate 10 Pro at Best Buy but the price is back up to $799 so maybe not. Bummer.

[@jspring86]

Amazon had it for $649 in blue yesterday anyway.

[@VersedNJ]

I saw the Mate 10 Pro's price on Amazon for $650.00 which seemed to me like a good deal. Also Mate 10 Pro is sold and shipped by Amazon, as well as having a warranty. Which is important. Buying from a reliable vendor is important.

[@Darklighter43]

Got one yesterday with a price match from Best Buy for $650.00. Love this phone. Now all I have to do is win a pair of Aptx headphones and I will be set as this phone supports it.

[@biazinho]

Here in Portugal the Mate 10 pro price drop from 880€ to 615€ and was the best news for me because i bought this amazing phone

[@kaynskee]

The mate 10 Pro will get emu 8.1 and android 8.1 so the only difference will be the the notch and the triple camera which really does that justify an extra $200 in the US market... Is Australia the mate 10 Pro is still $749 and the p20 pro is $1399 so too us $651 for a notch a triple camera is certainty not worth it.

Yep support LTE on both. I've used T-Mobile and AT&T sims so far. Even get VOLTE on T-Mobile. Pretty much all of the bloat can be deleted. Of course you are stuck with a ton of stock Huawei apps you might not want, but if it bothers you then you can install a third party launcher and hide those.
