Comparison review
Huawei P20 Pro is just a bit better than Sony Xperia Z4v, with an 81.4 score against 78.8. Even though the Huawei P20 Pro is heavier than Sony Xperia Z4v, it's just a little thinner and also notably newer. Both devices we compare here work with Android OS, but Huawei P20 Pro has newer 10 version while Sony Xperia Z4v has Android 5.1, providing the user a couple additional features.
The Sony Xperia Z4v features a more vivid display than Huawei P20 Pro, because although it has a quite smaller display, it also counts with a higher resolution of 2560 x 1440px and a better display density. The Xperia Z4v has a little faster CPU than Huawei P20 Pro, because although it has less RAM, and they both have a Octa-Core processing unit, the Xperia Z4v also counts with an additional GPU.
The Huawei P20 Pro has a much better camera than Xperia Z4v, and although they both have the same video frame rates and the same 3840x2160 video definition, the Huawei P20 Pro also has a back facing camera with a lot better 40 MP resolution, a way bigger back-facing camera sensor which gives a lot higher photo and video quality and a bigger camera aperture for better photos and video in poorly lited environments.
Huawei P20 Pro has a superior memory for applications, games, photos and videos than Sony Xperia Z4v, because although it has no slot for external memory cards, it also counts with 128 GB internal storage capacity. The Huawei P20 Pro counts with longer battery performance than Xperia Z4v, because it has 4000mAh of battery capacity against 3000mAh.
Although Huawei P20 Pro is a better device, it costs more than the Xperia Z4v, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as Xperia Z4v. If you are trying to save a few dollars, you can buy the Xperia Z4v, giving up a couple features, but you will get the most with your budget.
