Huawei has just unveiled the new Mate series smartphones at a launch event that took place in London on October 16. The phone's highlight is its triple camera setup at the back and the optical fingerprint scanner beneath the display. Though the phone has launched in the UK, there are no details if and when the smartphone will arrive in India. So, here are the top 5 alternatives you can buy right now.
Huawei P20 Pro
If you are looking for a smartphone with a triple camera setup, the closest competitor to the Mate 20 Pro is the company's own P20 Pro smartphone. The Huawei P20 Pro sports a 6.1-inch Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 1080x2240 pixels. The smartphone is powered by the Kirin 970 chipset and packs in 8GB of RAM. The phone is currently available for a price of Rs. 64,999.
Samsung Galaxy Note 9
While the Note 9 does not feature a triple camera setup, it is one of the best flagships of 2018 which is why it deserves a spot over here. The Samsung Galaxy Note 9 is powered by the Exynos 9810 octa-core processor. The device packs in 6GB or 8GB of RAM coupled with 256GB or 512GB of onboard storage. The Note 9 is available in India at a starting price of Rs. 67,900.

If you do not want to spend a fortune on your next smartphone, you should look for the OnePlus 6 instead. The smartphone brings flagship grade specifications for a price lower than Rs. 40,000. Sure the OnePlus 6 does not have as good cameras but if you care more about performance, the Snapdragon 845 won't disappoint you.
Google Pixel 3
If you are looking for the best smartphone camera, the Pixel 3 should do the justice. The phone comes with a single camera at the back but Google's AI does the magic. The phone is available for pre-orders for a starting price of Rs. 71,000.
