Overview Huawei Mate 20 lite

Android version and market relevance

Dual-smartphone Huawei Mate 20 lite introduced a company Huawei in August 2018. It has Android version 8.1 Oreo, which, unfortunately, it will not be possible to update, because the manufacturer did not take care of it.

Well, what can I say, Huawei Mate 20 lite is a smartphone of 2018 with fairly normal characteristics, which is located in our price segment “Affordable smartphones from $100 to $200”.

Screen, body and battery

6.3-inch LTPS IPS LCD touchscreen occupies almost the entire area of the front panel of the smartphone Huawei Mate 20 lite and has a small rectangular cutout at the top for a selfie camera and sensors. It also stands out from other models on the market with its thin bezels between the outer edges of the body and the screen. An edge-to-edge screen covers from 80% to 90% of the front panel.. Body thickness 7.6 mm puts the battery in it in capacity 3 750 mAh. As a result, these three important characteristics give us such an idea of the device — huge smartphone with thick case and average battery.

This model could become a flip smartphone and get into our catalog on a separate page, where all phones with flexible screens are collected. Unfortunately, this did not happen. And therefore, if you are interested in smartphones with such top-end characteristics, we advise you to look at them in our catalog and get a deeper understanding in which direction the entire mobile electronics industry is moving. Perhaps, in a couple of years, every second person on the planet will have such flip smartphones.

Main camera and selfie camera

An excellent camera with multiple lenses (20 MP Wide + 2 MP Depth sensor) was received by Huawei Mate 20 lite. And now you can definitely stand out with your photos among your friends. At least, thanks to the fact that two or more cameras will help you shoot excellent portraits with the Bokeh effect, and take photos with zooming, without much loss in image quality. And on the front of the smartphone we see a camera with multiple modules (smartphones with dual selfie cameras): 24 MP Wide + 2 MP Depth sensor. This is a very good camera to take selfie. You will want to do them all the time and publish to the Instagram :)

Processor and Internal Memory

The smartphone performance is affected by a lot of factors, and even more so on the android-smartphone, where the developer of the Android operating system and the device manufacturer are absolutely different companies and each develops with its strategy in the market. As a result, in the smartphone you get a hodgepodge: it′s like a “clean” Android, but with a shell from the manufacturer; as though only the necessary applications, but also many unnecessary from the manufacturer. Very often Android-installed apps by default, which you do not even use, are still running and working, they occupy part of the RAM and processor time of your smartphone. This slows the work of other applications and the battery charge is wasted.

So, in Huawei Mate 20 lite is installed 8-core processor on the chipset HiSilicon Kirin 710. As for RAM, the memory module is used here 4 GB, but if this is not enough for you, then there is a version for 6 GB. You can choose the right version of the smartphone, but note that the price of these versions is different.

You can store your photos, videos, music and applications both on the built-in smartphone memory, and on memory cards microSDXC. You are only available 64 GB built-in memory, so you need to be more careful about what you store on the device.

Price for Huawei Mate 20 lite: buy or not to buy?

Price Huawei Mate 20 lite at the start of sales was $160. A smartphone with this price level got into the price segment “Affordable smartphones from $100 to $200” and got a very powerful processor, a huge touch screen, and the front camera is very cool with a decent main camera.

If you want to buy Huawei Mate 20 lite, you can choose any online store or offline electronics store, the main thing is to have a guarantee for the smartphone and the desired version of the model you have chosen.

Before buying, if you have the opportunity, it is better to hold the phone in your hands, check the screen, the quality of the photo and video, look at the smoothness and speed of the interface. Never buy a “cat in a bag”, be sure to check everything before buying. Today, good smartphones are worth a lot of money, so it′s better to spend an extra ten minutes to eventually buy the model that will work well one or two years and help you in everything.
