Under the hood sits a Kirin 980, built on a 7nm process and paired with 6GB RAM and 128GB storage. That's still a capable combination for everyday multitasking, and there's an NM card slot if you need more room since it doesn't take standard microSD. The 6.53-inch IPS LCD panel runs at 1080 x 2244 resolution, giving you a tall 18.7:9 ratio for browsing and video.

Huawei Mate 20 price in Malaysia starts from RM1299, and for that you get a Leica-tuned triple camera setup: a 12MP wide lens, 16MP ultrawide, and 8MP telephoto, plus a 24MP front camera for selfies. It's a versatile combo for someone who wants framing options without stepping up to a flagship price.

A 4000 mAh battery backs it all up, which should comfortably cover a full day of use. You also get NFC, an infrared port for remote control functions, and IP53 splash resistance, useful extras that some phones in this range skip entirely.
