The Huawei Mate 20 Pro captures much clearer photographs and videos than Apple iPhone XS, because although it has worse 30 frames per second video frame rates, and they both have the same 3840x2160 (4K) video resolution and a F1.8 aperture, the Huawei Mate 20 Pro also counts with a way larger camera sensor providing a much higher image quality and a back camera with a much better resolution.
