Pixel 3a vs Huawei P20

I am looking to purchase one of these phones (with corporate Telus plan; Pixel 3a is $100, Huawei P20 is $200) but trying to decide which one is the better value. I use the phone for basic things -- emails, browsing, social -- no gaming. In terms of software update, Huawai seems to claim that their phones continue to receive updates -- but are these the official Android update packages?

Thanks so much for your input!

I'd say the Pixel 3a is your best bet in terms of support. Camera is great from what I've seen, stock Android, and it's running 10.

Own the P20 (Feb 2019) & Pro (June 2018) and wouldn't consider their support all that stellar especially on the security patch front. Actually appears now they are wavering on the support end, just in the process of receiving October's Patch which supersedes the August patch I am/was on... P20 updates always come a week or more later after Pro.

Nope in my opinion you'll be better off w/Pixel as it's pretty much assured you'll get at least another 16 months worth of support if not more. Whereas the P20 Series is already 18+ months in.
