Huawei has long been able to make powerful smartphones. So the sub-brand Honor has always boasted a productive filling. But today is not enough. Buyers want to see not only fast, but also beautiful devices. All this is ready to offer Honor View 20, which has excellent features, an advanced camera and a first-class design. We will tell about him.

Equipment

Review Honor View 20 should start with the package. Inside the box you will find a USB cable, power adapter, telephone, instructions and a special tool for removing SIM. A pleasant surprise was the presence of a protective cover made of polyurethane.

Design

The main design “chip” of the smartphone is the iridescent letter “V”, which is located on the back of the case. The device itself is made of tempered glass, and between the panels is a metal frame. On the front there is a large frameless screen without any cutouts, but with a small hole in the upper left corner.

The bottom indentation is almost invisible, as it merges with narrow frames around the display. At the back there is a horizontal unit with one main camera lens and LED flash. Nearby you can see the second module. This separation of sensors is a rather original solution. A little lower is a fingerprint scanner.

At the bottom there is an external speaker grill, a USB Type-C connector and a microphone. The upper edge is equipped with a single 3.5 mm headphone hole. Available colors: blue, red, black. Dimensions: thickness - 8.1 mm, height - 156.9 mm, width - 75.4 mm, weight - 180 g.

Display

IPS-screen got a resolution of 2310 by 1080 pixels, as well as a 6.4-inch diagonal. Levels of contrast and saturation are quite standard. As for the clarity of the picture, it is very good. The color temperature is as even as possible, there are no overexposures. If the “hole” in the display still interferes, then it can be hidden through the settings.

Performance

Honor View 20 has at its disposal a progressive eight-core Kirin 980 processor. The chip was created using the 7-nm process technology, and its maximum frequency reaches 2600 MHz. Here is the GPU Mali-G76 MP10.

The premium modification received 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of ROM. The standard version of the smartphone has 6 or 8 GB of RAM, as well as 128 GB of internal memory. There is no microSD card slot here. There is a battery with a capacity of 4000 mAh. Out of the box, the operating system Android 9.0 with the pre-installed Magic UI 2 shell is available. In the AnTuTu test, the gadget confidently gains about 275,000 points. This confirms the highest performance of the smartphone. There is also NFC, infrared and Bluetooth 5.0.

Camera

The device has a dual camera with the main 48-megapixel Sony IMX586 module (aperture 1.8). But the second ToF-sensor is even more interesting. With its help, 3D-contouring is implemented. Such a camera is especially good at taking pictures of static objects and landscapes.

The front side has a front 25-megapixel camera with aperture of 2.0 and auto-HDR. This sensor shoots quite well.

Sound

The flagship Honor View 20 got a loud multimedia speaker. The sound in the headphones is quite high quality. The only complaint is that there is a lack of bass.
