Design and Display
The style.of build.on the Huawei Mate 20 RS Porsche Design looks more mature and at the same time looks more appealing.
You now have a leather covering over the glass back giving it some more grip and eliminates the issue of having smudges all over the phone.
There’s the four camera arranged the same way as in the Mate 20 Pro and Porsche logo at the lower bottom. It has a notched screen something that was avoided on the last Porsche model.
It maintains the same display has seen on the Huawei Mate 20 Pro with the in-display fingerprint reader. Furthermore, you’ll be getting DCI-3 and HDR10 support with a crisp and rich colour display.
You can quite see how good a flagship it is from the display section with a fairly big 6.39-inch size and Quad HD+ resolution.
Battery and Camera
In the area of battery capacity, the story is pretty much the same as in the Huawei Mate 20 Pro. On it you’ll get a 4, 200mAh battery and fast charge too thrown in to the mix.
One of the interesting features is the fact that the Huawei Mate 20 RS Porsche Design can wirelessly charge other smartphones and also charges wirelessly. However, the faster charging will probably through the USB Type-C port using fast charge technology.
In the optics side of things, you’ve got the camera trio at the rear just like on the Mate 20 Pro and single front snapper.
The cameras on the rear side include a 40MP main camera, a 20MP sensor and an 8MP 5x zoom lens. The other way round, it has a 24MP selfie cam just like you have on the aforementioned device.
Hardware and Software
The similar setup continues into the hardware on the Huawei Mate 20 RS Porsche Design as the Huawei chip can be found on the smartphone. The HiSilicon Kirin 980 7nm process chipset is in play with the Mali-G76 MP10 GPU handling graphics.
For the specs lovers, you’ll be having a sumptuous 8GB RAM which is more than enough of you ask me and an option to choose between 256GB and 512GB storage space.
You can add an additional 256GB of storage space using a nano memory card. You’ve got Android 9 Pie on the smartphone with the EMUI 9 layed over it
