Huawei recently announced its new P60 smartphone line-up alongside its Mate X3 foldable.
The P60 series follows on from the company’s P50 line and consists of three phones – the Huawei P60, the P60 Pro and the P60 Art. The line-up was officially unveiled in China in March before getting an international launch in May, with the P60 Pro now available on European and UK shores starting at £1199/€1199 with 8GB RAM and 256GB of storage or £1299/€1299 for the top-end 12GB/512GB combo.
So how does the regular P60 compare to the P60 Pro? We’ve broken down all of the key differences in this guide.
The Huawei P60 Pro has a bigger telephoto camera
Both the Huawei P60 and the P60 Pro take advantage of large triple cameras fronted by 48-megapixel “Ultra Lighting” sensors and assisted by 13-megapixel ultra-wide angle sensors.
Where the two differ is the telephoto camera. The P60 uses a 12-megapixel camera to get up close and personal with its subject, while the P60 Pro quadruples that pixel count with a 48-megapixel sensor.
Otherwise, the cameras appear to be identical, with the same selfie camera, photography features and video resolution available across both models.
The Huawei P60 Pro is available with more RAM and storage
While both phones are powered by the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 4G mobile platform with an octa-core processor, Adreno GPU and 7th Gen Qualcomm AI Engine, the Huawei P60 Pro is available with more RAM and more storage.
The Huawei P60 is available in a single 8GB/256GB configuration, whereas the P60 Pro can be bought with either 8GB/256GB or 12GB/512GB.

The Huawei P60 Pro charges faster
Both smartphones pack large 4815 mAh batteries (unlike the Huawei P60 Art which comes with an even bigger 5100 mAh battery).
However, the Huawei P60 Pro has the fastest charging speeds of the two at 88W to the P60’s 66W. Both phones also support 50W wireless fast charging.
The Huawei P60 is cheaper
While it’s only the more premium Huawei P60 Pro getting an international launch, we do know that the Huawei P60 costs less than the P60 Pro in China. The P60 starts at CNY¥4,488 (~£531/$651) in China, whereas prices for the P60 Pro start at CNY¥6,988 (~£826/$1014).
