Huawei P20 features a little bit better camera than iPhone 7, and although they both have a F1.8 aperture, a 12 MP resolution camera in the back, the same video definition and the same 30 fps video frame rates, the Huawei P20 also has a much bigger back-facing camera sensor capturing way better quality photographs and videos.
