The Apple iPhone 12 mini has iOS 14.x operating system, while Huawei P20 Pro works with Android 10 operating system. Apple iPhone 12 mini's construction is newer, notably lighter and just a little bit thinner than the Huawei P20 Pro.
The Apple iPhone 12 mini counts with a better performance than Huawei P20 Pro, because although it has an inferior number of cores (but faster) and a lower amount of RAM, it also counts with a 64-bits processing unit. The Apple iPhone 12 mini features a better screen than Huawei P20 Pro, because although it has a quite smaller display, it also counts with a quite higher pixels density and a little higher 1080 x 2340 pixels resolution.
Huawei P20 Pro has much more memory for apps and games than iPhone 12 mini, because it has 128 GB internal storage capacity. The Huawei P20 Pro has a really longer battery life than Apple iPhone 12 mini, because it has a 4000mAh battery size. Huawei P20 Pro captures better pictures and videos than iPhone 12 mini, because although it has a smaller camera aperture which is not favorable for shooting photos and videos in poorly lited environments and lower 30 frames per second video frame rate, and they both have the same video resolution, the Huawei P20 Pro also counts with a much more mega-pixels camera.
Although iPhone 12 mini is a better device, it is a lot more expensive than the Huawei P20 Pro, and it doesn't have such a good price and quality relation as Huawei P20 Pro. So if you need that extra specs, you can buy iPhone 12 mini, otherwise you can save a couple dollars and buy the Huawei P20 Pro, giving up some specifications.
