Both phones have a similar spec. The price is similar too. Any recommendations or advice? Anyone here have any experience with them? No environmental 'advice' please.

Loving my Vivo.

What you choose depends on your individual preferences.

Do you place more importance on screen size? Camera resolution? Charging speed? etc...

Screen to body ratio is higher with Vivo X20 (~18% bigger than Huawei P10) with fingerprint sensor positioned in the rear. Newer phone models abandon the home button to make room for the screen.

However, future Vivo models may even abandon both traditional front & rear fingerprint readers with Qualcomm's innovative under-display finger sensor technology. This will allow you to conveniently unlock/pay just by touching the bottom 1/3 of your screen,

granted this under-display technology of integrating beneath OLED screen will slow down the fingerprint sensor speed.

Camera resolution is much better in the Huawei P10 with ~66% more mega pixels.

Huawei P10 touts super fast charging speed, battery lasts entire day with just 20 minute charging.

Clock speed for Huawei P10's HiSilicon KIRIN 960 chipset is 4.55% faster, albeit made from the older 16nm process technology by Taiwan's TSMC pure-play semiconductor foundry.

Vivo x20 sports the more reputable Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset from San Diego... despite the newer 14nm process technology, the maximum rate that date can be read from or stored into memory is 3 times slower than Huawei's KIRIN chipset.

11.11 is my most anticipated day of the year! Remember to place your Tmall deposit tonight at 12am to reap the discounts on 11/11.

Fyi, rest assured with Huawei P10's chipset made by TSMC.

Qualcomm is a fabless semiconductor company that engages in chip design, not manufacturing. For the Snapdragon 660 used by Vivo X20, Qualcomm contracts the chip manufacturing to Samsung for the 14nm process technology. However, Qualcomm will switch to said TSMC for the next generation 7 nanometer process nodes in their 2019 Snapdragon lineups. The all powerful A11 chip for iPhone X is also made by TSMC's 7nm technology.
