Design
Huawei P20 is one of the most innovative smartphones released in 2018. At first sight, the phones look very similar – both with glass back panels and with IP67 standard protection. However, differences are more numerous, especially when it comes to front design.
Huawei makes an emphasis on the camera, reminding that this smartphone has advanced photo features. Both devices has got a black panel at the top, face ID and fingerprint scanner. Somehow, Huawei managed to make the design more functional and ergonomic.
Performance
Both devices are the most powerful flagmans of each brand. The specifications are quite similar. Nevertheless, Huawei’s device is better in running ten and more apps in a background mode, while iPhone doesn’t have enough RAM and quickly reloads each.
Camera
Both devices have first-class cameras, perfectly functioning in any conditions. iPhone is known for advanced camera settings that can make this phone a good alternative to a DSLR camera. Huawei seems to tag along. P Smart has also got a dual camera and shows impressive results in low-light environment.
Bottom line
According to experts, the increasing popularity of Huawei smartphones can be explained by the diversity of models in all price categories. Meanwhile, iPhone sales are decreasing due to the lower interest to the brand. Last year, Huawei became the biggest phone manufacturer in the world.
There are many reasons to choose P Smart instead of iPhone X, including design, powerful battery, high performance, and good camera. And remember that the majority of iPhone models available in Nigeria are replicas or refurbished. It means that you cannot be 100% certain about the quality.
