Huawei Mate 20 X 5G — Full Specifications, Features & Price in Pakistan

The Huawei Mate 20 X 5G is a 7.2-inch phablet-class flagship from 2019 that pairs the Kirin 980 chipset with a giant OLED display and Leica cameras. Unlike the later Mate 30 and Mate 40 series, it launched with Google Play Services on board, which makes it a rare Huawei flagship of its era for buyers who still want Google apps. This guide covers its verified specifications, Pakistan price context, and honest buying advice for the used market.

Key Specifications at a Glance

Design and Build Quality

The Mate 20 X 5G is a big, two-handed phone: 174.6 mm tall and 233 g, with a glass back, aluminium frame, and the circular camera housing the Mate 20 family is known for. It carries an IP53 dust-and-splash rating and a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor.

Display Features

The 7.2-inch OLED panel with HDR10 support and 1080 x 2244 resolution (~346 ppi) is the whole point of this phone — it is closer to a small tablet than a typical phone, and excellent for gaming, reading, and video. Corning Gorilla Glass adds scratch resistance.

Processor and Performance

The Kirin 980 (7 nm) was Huawei's 2018 flagship chip — an octa-core CPU up to 2.6 GHz with a Mali-G76 MP10 GPU. It handles everyday apps, video, and older 3D games well even now, but it is five generations behind current flagship silicon; heavy modern games and long-term software demands will stretch it. Performance is that of a 2019 flagship: quick for the basics, modest by 2026 standards.

RAM and Storage

Huawei sold this phone in 6GB + 128GB and 8GB + 256GB configurations, and storage can be expanded with a Nano Memory card (up to 256GB) in the shared SIM slot. For a used purchase today, prefer the 8GB + 256GB variant — the 6GB base model can feel constrained with modern apps.

Camera Features

The Leica-tuned triple camera (40MP wide + 20MP ultrawide + 8MP telephoto with 3x optical zoom and OIS) was among the best of 2019, and it still takes strong daylight photos with good colour science. Night photography and video features are generations behind current phones — expect 4K@30fps video and slower night processing. The 24MP front camera handles selfies and video calls reliably.

Battery and Charging

A 4,200mAh battery with 40W wired SuperCharge was premium in 2019. On the used market, battery health is the single most important check: a five-plus-year-old unit may hold noticeably less than its original capacity, so ask for a battery health report or test before buying. There is no wireless charging on this model.

Software and Updates

The Mate 20 X 5G launched on Android 9 (Pie) with EMUI 9.1 with Google Play Services — this is the key differentiator from the Mate 30/40 series that followed. Buyers get the Google Play Store, Gmail, YouTube, and Maps without workarounds. The caveat: the phone is long out of its official update window, so it will not receive new Android versions or current security patches — factor that into any used purchase.

Connectivity and Additional Features

Full 5G support (Sub-6 SA/NSA) is the headline here — one of the earliest 5G phones in Huawei's lineup — alongside 4G LTE, dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0 with aptX HD, NFC, and USB Type-C 3.1. It also supports an optional stylus, a nice fit for the 7.2-inch screen. There is no 3.5mm headphone jack on some listings while others claim one — treat the jack as unconfirmed (see warnings).

Variants, Colours and Availability

Huawei released the Mate 20 X 5G in Emerald Green with 6GB + 128GB and 8GB + 256GB variants. The phone is discontinued worldwide — you will only find it used or as old import stock in Pakistan. Do not confuse it with the non-5G Mate 20 X (different battery and no 5G) or the Mate 20 Pro (smaller, different camera layout).

Price in Pakistan and PTA Information

There is no verified current official Pakistan price for the Mate 20 X 5G — it is discontinued, and local listings reflect used or old import stock. Zohaan Mobile Gallery's internal catalog reference for this model is Rs. 55,000 (reference only — not a current market price). Used-market asking prices vary by condition, battery health, and storage variant, so confirm the latest price with Zohaan Mobile Gallery before buying.

PTA: PTA approval applies per device and IMEI, not per model. Before paying for a used unit, send the phone's IMEI to 8484 and confirm "Compliant" status. How to check PTA approval.

Main Advantages and Limitations

Advantages:

• Ships with Google Play Services — rare among post-2019 Huawei flagships
• Massive 7.2-inch OLED HDR10 display, ideal for media and gaming
• Leica triple camera that still delivers strong daylight shots
• Early 5G support with 40W SuperCharge

Limitations:

• Long discontinued — only used units available, with aged batteries
• Android 9 with no ongoing security updates
• 60Hz display; heavy and large for one-handed use (233 g)
• Flagship-era camera performance only; weak night photography vs modern phones

Who Should Consider This Phone?

Good fit: buyers who want a huge screen for media on a budget, collectors of Huawei's Google-era flagships, or anyone who needs Google Play Services on a Huawei device without workarounds. It suits secondary-device use — a media phone or travel backup.

Look elsewhere if: you need a daily driver with current security updates, want modern night photography, or prefer a compact phone — then browse current options in the all mobiles collection or consider selling your old device via sell your device.

Final Verdict

The Mate 20 X 5G is a niche-but-genuine find: a huge-screen Huawei flagship that still runs Google Play Services, at used-market prices.

Check battery health, verify the IMEI via 8484, and make sure Google services are intact on the exact unit before paying.
