The veteran leaker has posted press images of the entire P20 lineup (Lite, regular and Pro), and all three have that distinctive cutout for the front camera. The pictures also illustrate some of the differences between models, most notably the Pro (above) — it’ll undoubtedly be the stand-out model.
The leak corroborates earlier reports that the Pro would have a third rear camera where its siblings would ‘only’ have two. Huawei has been teasing the P20’s March 27th launch event with promises of seeing “mooore with AI,” so there’s a good chance the third camera is being used for object recognition.

It shouldn’t be a slouch — the Lite will reportedly carry a 5.8-inch screen, 4GB of RAM and 64GB of built-in storage.
While there are still some details up in the air (such as availability and price in key areas), the leak illustrates Huawei’s strategy: like ASUS, it’s gunning after Apple with all-screen phones in a wider price range.
