At the bottom of the P20 and P20 Pro, you'll find a front-mounted fingerprint scanner, which is a bit odd considering other Huawei launches. The P20 Lite, which will likely be the cheaper option, will have a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner, in line with most other modern Android phones.On to the rear of the P20, we can see a vertically-oriented dual-camera setup with a flash below. The P20 Lite is similar, but the P20 Pro is where things get interesting. As per previous leaks, the P20 Pro will have three cameras on the rear, arranged as a dual setup with an additional single lens.It's unclear what purpose Huawei will have for the three lenses — we'll have to wait to find out more.It's possible that Huawei is planning to implement some AR fun in its new devices. Such a move would come as no surprise after seeing Apple's Animoji, Samsung's AR Emoji, and Google's AR Core.The P20 is rumored to feature a 6.01-inch display, while being powered by the Kirin 970 chipset. On the software side, the P20 will feature EMUI 8.1, which is based on Android 8.1 Oreo.Huawei's event will be taking place on March 27th in Paris. It's going to be interesting to see how Huawei responds to Samsung's recent Galaxy S9 launch.
