Rumours about Hudawi p20 and p20 plus

Huawei P20 and it will come in three versions (at least). And the top model of the three will sport a notch, similar to the iPhone X.

Its screen bezels are nearly non-existent, all except the bottom one are razor thin. The fingerprint reader is on the back, below the camera (more on that in a second). And the top bezel features a notch to accommodate the earpiece, selfie camera and sensors.

Huawei has already demoed its own FaceID-like tech (that will be better than Apple’s, company officials say). That’s not visible on the schematic though and there doesn’t seem to be much room, but who knows.

Schematics: Huawei P20 • Huawei P20 Plus • Huawei P20 Pro

Anyway, back to the camera – or should we say the triple camera. It’s positioned vertically and it runs down the middle of the phone.

On the Huawei P20 and P20 Plus the camera is in a different position – off to the left on the Plus and rotated 90° on the vanilla model. Both have a fingerprint reader on the (thin) bottom bezel on the front, similar to the vanilla Mate 10.

The schematics say nothing about the functions of the triple camera, but earlier rumors suggest they will work in tandem to create 40MP photos and enable 5x “hybrid zooming”. We expect to hear more either at CES (this weekend!) or at the MWC (next month).
