Huawei Mate 20
The non-Pro Mate 20 is a cheaper alternative which still packs a punch. It gets a flat 6.5″ Full HD+ display and it runs on the same top-of-the-line Kirin 980 processor with 6GB RAM and 128GB of storage. The cameras are a step down with a 12MP f1/.8 main, 16MP f/2.2 ultra-wide-angle and an 8MP f/2.4 telephoto camera for the rear.
Unlike the Mate 20 Pro, there’s no IP68 dust and water resistance and it gets a slightly smaller 4,000mAh battery that comes with a 22.5W SuperCharge charger. For biometric security, the non-Pro model gets a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor. — SoyaCincau
