Hand in hand with an increased nutrition awareness, the world is witnessing a rise of fitness culture. Fitness influencers are being followed by millions on Social Media, workout applications are increasingly popular and gyms have never been busier. Outdoor workouts are getting increasingly popular too, especially in good weather. Whether on the beach, in the mountains or at parks, people are getting that blood flowing. The world is getting healthy and we are loving it – and since technology is now an integral part of our lives, we scanned the market for the latest most efficient outdoor gadget, one that would accompany people on their day in the sun to make the experience more productive and pleasant. Out of all smartphones and gadgets nothing could hold a candle to the Huawei Mate 20 Pro, and here’s why.
The entire landscape in one shot
When on a beautiful hike, fill your lungs with fresh air and feast your eyes on the beauty of nature. Wish you could immortalize this moment? You now can. The Huawei Mate 20 Pro integrates the world’s first Leica Wide Angle Lens on its 20MP lens, one of the three Leica Triple Camera lenses (the others being a primary 40MP one and an 8MP telephoto one). The Leica Wide Angle Lens, as its name indicates, lets the camera see ‘wider’. Meaning that you can fit your field of view into one shot, without having to leave any of it out. All those trees and mountains you can see will fit into one beautiful shot, saving this precious moment into a beautiful postcard-like image. Simply choose the 0.6x option on the mid-left button to activate the Wide Angle Lens and capture the landscape in its entirety. This works just as well for videos. Shoot the beautiful landscape while crossing cities on your motorcycle and get the full view in one video.

Steady-as-a-rock shots
You’ve improved at Kite Surfing or Mountain Biking and want to get a picture of your hard earned progress? Don’t settle for a blurry one. Capturing extravagant motion shots is easy with the AI 4D Predictive Autofocus feature as the system performs AI analysis and is able to spot the shape and details of the subject in real time when taking photos. This powerful object recognition feature can accurately identify multiple objects, and track the moving subject in real-time when previewing the pictures, giving you a perfectly still and clear shot amidst the chaos of movement.
A battery with an endurance like yours
If you’re going to be timing your circuit training, filming your Yoga practice at the park, or tracking the kilometers of your run, you will need a smartphone with the same endurance as yours. One you can trust to withstand intensive usage knowing there are no plugs around. With a 4200mAh battery – one of the largest on the market – the Huawei Mate 20 Pro has your back throughout the day, even when being used intensively. Take pictures and videos of your hike, time your sprints, upload your workout tips to Instagram and follow today’s cross fit challenge on your app, without getting the unpleasant surprise of a dead phone and being left with a pitch black screen displaying nothing but the reflection of your sad face.
A charger that sprints
If you’re going rock climbing or kayaking, chances are you will need to leave early to catch the sun. The last thing you want to add to your morning rush is a wait until the phone charges. The 40W Supercharge adapter will top up your Huawei Mate 20 Pro’s battery to approximately 70% in only 30 minutes. Don’t be scared of the charging speed, it is extremely safe as the Huawei Supercharge and the entire Huawei Mate 20 Pro were certified by TUV Rheinland, a German certification organisation with some of the world’s strictest safety standards. The fast and safe charging technology charges the device while maintaining a low device temperature, so you can charge your phone with peace of mind.
Charge your teammates’ smartphone with yours
Sportsmanship is all about sharing, isn’t it? And what better way to display yours than by charging a team member’s dying battery on a football field or in the mountains, where no plugs are to be found? With the Reverse Wireless Charging feature, your Huawei Mate 20 Pro can charge your friend’s smartphone battery (regardless of its brand) as long as their device supports Qi. Simply run the feature, place your smartphones against one another and become the hero of the day as their phone begins to charge. Practicality at its best!
