Moto Z4 (2019) vs Huawei P20 (2018)

While the Moto Z4 (2019) wasn't able to make it to the very top of any roundups from sources that perform quality hands-on testing, it still got featured in a large number of them. PhoneArena, CNET, Tom's Guide, PCmag, Techradar, and Android Authority have all deemed it worthy of a place on their respective shortlists.

Returning to the Huawei P20 Pro (2018) - it was really well-received by reviewers at Digital Camera World and AVForums, which are among the most highly trusted sources on the internet and are known for their in-depth hands-on testing. It was named "Ranked 2 out of 12" by Digital Camera World and "Ranked 1 out of 7" by AVForums, which points toward the Huawei P20 Pro (2018) being a high-quality product.

We conducted an analysis of all of the review data that we could find on these two products. First, we focused on sources that tested and rated both of them, like Techradar, CNET, Tom's Guide, PCmag, Lifewire, and Android Authority, and learned that they all showed a preference for the Huawei P20 Pro (2018).

Then we took a look at the highest review scores that these two Smartphones received. We found that the Moto Z4 (2019) managed to earn a rating of 9 from PhoneArena, whereas the Huawei P20 Pro (2018) got its highest, 10, score from reviewers at musicphotolife.com.

Lastly, in order to better compare them to the rest of their competition, we averaged out their review scores. The Huawei P20 Pro (2018) managed to get 8.4 out of 10 - considerably better than the 7.5 review average of Smartphones in general - whereas the Moto Z4 (2019) earned 7.2 points.

It should be said that doing a direct Moto Z4 (2019) vs. Huawei P20 Pro (2018) comparison might not be entirely fair due to the difference in their prices - some sources don't put much weight on value for money and thus tend to give better review scores to more expensive products.
