The Huawei Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro, comes with a 7 nm Kirin 980 processor, support Mali G76. The 8-core CPU uses ARM Cortex A76 and A55 cores. Two of the four A76 cores work at 2.6 GHz with the highest performance. The remaining two cores are working at speed of 1.92 GHz. The A55 cores, which draw attention to low power consumption, working at the speed of 1.8 GHz.

In many respects, it is superior to the previous model P20. Coming with a 6.39-inch 2K + display, Mate Pro features a 3120×1440-pixel curved OLED display with HDR support.
