If the main features that you want out of a new smartphone are:
1) Excellent battery life
2) Versality of Cameras (2x telephoto + wideangle)
3) Night Mode
4) IR Blaster + 3.5mm headphone jack (rare dynamic duo)
Then Mate 20 is best suited for you, coming from a Mate 20 user myself. Photos taken in both daylight and night time are great. Battery of huawei flagships are well known to be class leading and top notch (particularly due to power efficient Kirin chipsets), and they do not degrade easily compared to other brands.
Mate 20 does have its drawbacks. It has up to ip53 protection, hence do not drop it in the pool and take caution when using while using it outside during heavy rainy weather. Its point-and-shoot video capability is above average (and does not support 4k@60fps), and truthfully is not that spectacular compared to iphone/samsung phones, so keep that in mind. However, Huawei's superb fancy modes such as super macro mode, aperture mode and AI portrait mode somewhat make up for it, giving itself an edge over other phones out there who lack such features.
If you can afford to spend more cash, the newer P30 would be an upgrade, with an OLED screen as well as improved main/selfie cameras due to its RYBY sensors. However, it is smaller and does not have IR Blaster (pretty rare on phones nowadays, but very useful in many situations), so take note if you are considering P30. The Mate 20 Pro is also a noteworthy alternative as well, if you do not mind the notch.
If you have even more $$$, P30 Pro is the best that Huawei currently has to offer, with ip68 protection, unparalleled periscope telephoto and night mode, not to mention wireless charging and exceptional battery life (tested and proven by critics worldwide), sans audio jack.

The flat screen means you dont have to worry about screen repair as much as the note 9. Cracked screen on the note 9 means replacing the whole display and it is not cheap. The difference in ppi wont matter much especially if youre coming from the note 3. I used a mate 9 and the battery life is still going strong and it hardly lags in contrast to my s8 which slows down and the lackluster battery life.

IR blaster, Headphone jack, Great & versatile camera, Good screen but no OLED and no Curve, Stereo speakers, and long battery life.
If there's any other phone that can acheive those I'm open for your suggestions, thanks

Dear All
i need your help to decide between 2 phones. (both same price)
Mate 20 (non Pro)
Note 9 (Exynos chipset - 6 gp ram - 128 GP)
i am an average user - average web surfing - social media - playing Pubg 3 times a week - average photo taking)
my current device is note 3 (running for the 5th year now - i was able to unlock it and install customs roms without issues)
i am looking for a device which can last at least 3-5 years ahead.
my only concerns here are related to the screen type and quality and the speed of the device on the long run (after 1-2 years) . while the note 9 has super amoled screen with 515 ppi, the mate 20 had LCD with 381 ppi (my note 3 has 386 ppi).
in terms of chipest Mate 20 has Kirin 980 (7nm) while note 9 has exyno 9810 (10nm)
any advises why i should choose one phone over the other and what are the pros and cons .
i want something reliable can be used for heavy gaming sometimes and usual activity youtube, texting, facebook, web surfing , work related emails)
thank you all for your valuable help
