First 5 things you should do with your Huawei Mate 20 Pro

1) BRING BACK THE APPS MENU

Go to Settings > Home Screen & Wallpaper, then tap on Home Screen Style. You’ll see options for Standard and Drawer. For long-term Android’ers like us, the Drawer mode definitely feels more “standard” to us.

2) HIDE THE NOTCH

Go to Settings > Display > More Display Settings > Notch to find the option to banish the poor old notch.

3) SETUP THE IN-SCREEN FINGERPRINT SCANNER

Settings > Security & Privacy > Fingerprint ID. You just have to press your finger into the screen a bunch of times.

4) USE SMART REMOTE TO REPLACE YOUR TV REMOTE
The pre-installed Smart Remote app is dedicated to this feature. Fire it up and you can search Huawei’s own directory of TVs, cameras, projectors, set-top boxes and more. This app even lets you create your own mutant virtual remote, stitching together controls from a whole bunch of real-world ones by teaching the Mate 20 Pro commands button-by-button.

5) TRY OUT DARK MODE, FOR BETTER BATTERY LIFE
