Huawei P20 Lite

📅 2018 📷 16 MP 🎬 1080p30
from $280

📖 Overview

The 2018 Huawei P20 Lite is a budget midranger whose imaging centers on a single usable 16MP f/2.2 main camera (1/3.1" sensor, PDAF, no OIS) backed by a 2MP depth sensor purely for software portrait bokeh — there is no telephoto or ultrawide. A 16MP f/2.0 selfie camera handles the front, and video tops out at 1080p/30fps with no 4K, log profiles, or RAW capture. It is a snapshot-oriented phone rather than a tool for serious photography.
