The iPhone XS has a score of 84.2, which is better than Huawei P20 Lite's 75.4 global score. Although iPhone XS is better than the Huawei P20 Lite, we must tell that it's also just a little thicker and somewhat heavier.

The Apple iPhone XS features a bit better display than Huawei P20 Lite, and although they both have a screen of the same size, the Apple iPhone XS also has a slightly better 1125 x 2436 resolution and a just a bit greater pixels density. IPhone XS counts with a much better camera than Huawei P20 Lite, because although it has a lot less MP resolution back camera, it also counts with a larger diafragm aperture for better images and videos in poorly lited situations and a much higher video resolution.

Although iPhone XS is a better device, it costs a lot more than Huawei P20 Lite, and it doesn't have such a good relation between it's price and quality as Huawei P20 Lite. So if you want that extra specs and features, you can buy the iPhone XS, otherwise you can save some dollars and buy the Huawei P20 Lite, letting go some features and specs.
