When it comes to pure hardware and performance each phone has its plusses here. Samsung has the sharper display, and bigger battery, but Huawei has much faster charging and more impressive camera capabilities. Samsung has the higher resolution screen, and it also has arguably the ultimate trump card: proper Android.
For instance, Oppo is offering a better phone, with advanced processor under the 10k INR price segment with RealMe 1. But, above 15K or 20K INR segment, Huawei phones are far better as compared to Oppo models. Better processor, better camera and much more with Huawei P20 and other series.
Screen: Smaller and sharperThere's a definite size difference here, with Apple going for a modest 5.8in on the iPhone 11 Pro and Huawei going large at 6.47in. Apple's 6.5in iPhone 11 Max Pro is the better match if you're seeking a super-sized screen. Huawei's screen is larger, but Apple's screen is sharper.
