Chinese smartphone brand Huawei announced the Mate 20 Pro last month at an event in London. And then a couple of days later, Huawei said that it would bring this smartphone to India in November. However, at that time, the company didn’t reveal the exact launch date of Mate 20 Pro in India. But now, we finally know that the Mate 20 Pro is reaching Indian shores next week.
