Huawei Mate 20 Pro prototype pictured: a curved screen makes for slim bezels

Peter, 10 September 2018

The glass panels of the Huawei Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro hinted at slim bezels, but the launch box we saw last week did its best to conceal the design. This dummy offers a much cleaner look at the upcoming design.

This is the Huawei Mate 20 Pro, you can tell by the wide bezel (and by the label on the screen, obviously). The non-Pro model is coming with a smaller waterdrop notch instead.

However, the Pro model will house a 3D face scanner in that notch (according to rumors). Further differences include screen resolution – 1,440 x 3,120px for the Pro vs. 1,080 x 2,244px for the non-Pro.

And as you can see, the Mate 20 Pro screen has curved sides, while the regular Mate 20 appears to have a flat screen (with a beveled edge, but flat nonetheless).

The Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro will be unveiled on October 16, the Huawei Mate 20 Lite is already official and even on sale.
