Chinese smartphone manufacturer [Huawei](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/huawei-pura-70-ultra) has long prided itself on creating camera smartphones with a heavy focus on high-end photographic features, but it looks to have outdone itself with the introduction of the P20 pro, the first phone on the market to come with not one but [three cameras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/honor-magic8-pro-air).

Fitted with a trio of lenses as well as [3x optical zoom](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sandmarc-telephoto-tetraprism) to boot, the Huawei P20 Pro lets you view your dynamite photography on a crystal-clear 6.1-inch 2,240 x 1,080 display. The camera mechanism is also designed to allow in a healthy degree of light without causing unwanted distortion.

In an increasingly saturated camera smartphone market, the Huawei P20 Pro well and truly stands out due to the unprecedented degree of attention to detail granted to its photographic offerings, giving it a strong case for being the best photography-focused smartphone out there.
