Is huawei mate 20 lite a good phone?
franklyn_lowe
about 2 years ago
Huawei Mate 20 Lite is a pretty easy recommendation at this price. It looks great, has a pretty solid set of cameras and seems like an okay performer, although we'll only know how fast for sure when Huawei unlocks benchmarking tools. At £379 it's pretty keenly priced too.

When Wi-Fi calling is turned on, you can make and answer calls using a Wi-Fi network when you're in an area with little or no network coverage. To turn on Wi-Fi calling, you need to establish a connection to a Wi-Fi network and select 4G (LTE) as network mode. Press the phone icon.
