Comparison review
Apple iPhone 7 is slightly better than Huawei P20 Pro, getting an 81.6 score against 81.4. Apple iPhone 7's design is much lighter and just a little thinner than the Huawei P20 Pro, although it was released just a little more than a year before. Huawei P20 Pro has a screen that's just as good as the display in iPhone 7, although the Huawei P20 Pro also has a way better resolution of 1080 x 2240, a bigger display and a greater pixels count in each screen inch.
The iPhone 7 features a way bigger memory capacity to store more apps and games than Huawei P20 Pro, because it has 256 GB internal memory capacity. The Huawei P20 Pro features a little better hardware performance than iPhone 7, because it has a greater number of cores (and they are faster) and more RAM memory.
Huawei P20 Pro takes better videos and photos than iPhone 7, and although they both have the same 3840x2160 video quality, a same size diafragm aperture and the same video frame rates, the Huawei P20 Pro also has a lot better resolution back facing camera and a lot bigger camera sensor providing a lot better image quality.
The Huawei P20 Pro counts with a much longer battery life than iPhone 7, because it has 4000mAh of battery capacity instead of 1960mAh.
Although iPhone 7 is a better device, it costs a lot more money than Huawei P20 Pro, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as Huawei P20 Pro. So if you need that extra features, you can buy iPhone 7, but if you don't you can save some dollars and get the Huawei P20 Pro, giving up some specs and features.
