Cubot P20 Pros and Cons
6 major benefits and setbacks of the Cubot P20 Android 8.0 Oreo Phone.
Display
The screen is definitely a pro 6.18 inches is slightly larger than the current norm of 5.0 to 5.5 inches and the resolution is 2246 X 1080 Pixels, the exact Cubot P20 PPI (Pixels Per Inch) number is 403PPI. Against the iPhone 8 Plus the Cubot P20 has the advantage of having a higher screen resolution and higher PPI rating as well as a larger screen the iPhone 8 Plus has a screen resolution of 1920x1080 a PPI of 401 and is of 5.5 inches.
A negative is not the screen itself but what the screen lacks, a screen protector also known as tempered glass. If one is not included with a seller you need to get one separately what good is a high-quality screen rife with scratches and easy to smash. Phones usually protect screens with Gorilla glass however with the P20 that is not the case, speaking of which.

Cubot P20 Screen Protector
Dual sim is a super feature a business and personal number is a huge plus, you may not want everyone having your actual number and being able to delegate numbers is useful. 2G 3G and 4G networks are all usable with the Cubot P20 and two sims from different networks is a great way to increase network coverage when one sim is not great for a call or internet services the other may be. Android 5.0 and above tell you which sim is being rung and let you choose which sim to ring from. Each sim is given a different colour but you can change it to a colour of your choosing.
A fault shared by many dual sim phones is that often a dual sim slot doubles as SD card slot which is exactly how it is with the Cubot P20 you can have either two nano sims or a nano sim and SD up to 128GB inserted at once. I see this as major con you have the Cubot P20 phone long enough and you will use up all the 64GB internal memory or maybe that's enough for you. You can work around this floor to some degree with cloud storage services if you are willing to depend more on your data.

Cameras
Dual cameras work particularly well with 4G phones a video call is well enhanced when you have a 13MP front camera or if you happen to want to take pictures of yourself. Back cameras also very impressive in terms of resolution with 20MP+2MP dual rear cameras the Cubot P20 is doing very well. This could be a pro or con depending on other factors high-resolution camera specs do not always equal high-resolution photo taking capability and dual rear cameras a definitely do not always outperform one good camera.
No Field Communication
NFC (Near Field Communication) is not a feature present in the Cubot P20, NFC gives users the option of interacting wherever they see the symbol it can be used for transport, Android Pay and other services. If you have wanted to get the most out of NFC in any environment NFC tags are the best way you can set them up to instruct NFC phones to do things you want or send information. For example instead of giving the WIFI password to guest they can touch an NFC tag with their phone and have the password sent to their phone which is NFC unlike the Cubot P20, Id' like to say in my loudest inside voice CONNNNNNNNNNNN.

NFC Tags
3.5mm VS Type-C What Would You Choose
3.5mm headphones were the norm until type- C became more pronounced in the Android phone market with some opting to completely remove 3.5mm ports in favour of type-C USB ports with most models coming with a type C to 3.5 mm adapter.
Type-C USB is faster than USB 3.0 which can transfer data at 3.0GB per second it's also interchangeable so you always plug it in the right way around. Google Chromebook Pixel and MacBook use type C USB s the technology is becoming increasingly more compatible.
Here's what I will say you can get a Type-C to 3.5mm adapter but you cannot get a 3.5mm to Type-C adapter so if you had to pick a phone with one or the other which would it be?

Type-c- 3.5mm adapter
Sensors
Light sensor, Distance sensor, G-sensor
fingerprint
Light sensors adjust display brightness of the display depending on the brightness of the environment.
G sensor is the standard sensor responsible for to the screen changing between a horizontal and vertical view when turned.
Distance sensor also referred to as proximity sensor is a sensor that relay the proximity of the P20 and the user so for example when you put the phone to your ear the 6.18-inch display backlights turn off to save power.
These three sensors are pretty much the standard but always nice to have.
Fingerprint Sensor pretty obvious unlocks the phone using the owner's fingerprint.
Gyroscope Sensor VR
A gyroscope is a sensor sorely missed in the Cubot P20 which offers users the ability to turn the phone like a steering wheel to turn the camera on a video with VR feature enabled.
Cubot P20 Battery
Battery capacity is 4000Mah and a 5V/2A Charger is included, a larger battery requires a faster charger.
5V/2A Charging compatibility means 5V/2A Charging accessories are compatible so you can use power banks or car chargers. The biggest flaw with wired chargers is wired chargers always break eventually making wireless charging a truly wonderful feature.

Cubot Max 5 OTG
You need to use OTG with the Max 5 and I'll tell you why. Cubot's Max 5 is an OTG phone which is not surprising given Cubot's track record and the specific selling point of the Max 5. OTG Can be used to enhance the 256GB internal memory with a flash drive, this specifically is important because you cannot increase the internal memory with an SD card. OTG works with Android and even console controllers so if you plan to use the Max 5 because of its selling point this may be a must-use feature.
