The Huawei P20 and P20 Pro, announced in Paris in end-March, will be launched in the country on April 28. But as early as April 21 — until April 27 — you may already preorder any one of them from 31 selected Huawei stores and kiosks. The list of participating shops can be found here.
The caveat: Huawei Philippines has not revealed their local pricing yet. Elsewhere, however, the regular model costs €649 (P41,635 or $801) while the more feature-rich Pro variant is priced at €899 (P57,673 or $1,110).

The Huawei P20 features a dual-rear-camera system that combines a 12-megapixel color sensor with a 20-megapixel monochrome one. The top-rated Huawei P20 Pro, on the other hand, boasts a triple-rear-camera configuration that consists of a 40-megapixel RGB sensor, a 20-megapixel black-and-white unit, and an 8-megapixel sensor with telephoto lens. Both still benefit from the Chinese company’s partnership with German camera manufacturer Leica.
