Huawei unveiled luxury Honor 20 and Honor 20 Pro

The official announcement of Honor 20 and Honor 20Pro - Huawei's flagship pair of Honor brand. At the same time, the Honor 20 Lite was attached to the family as a junior version, but this is not a novelty, this smartphone is already being sold, it is simply called otherwise. In the Russian market it is Honor 10i, it costs 1,990 rubles.

The main thing that you can say Honor 20 and Honor 20Pro, they are about cameras. Especially Pro. That, in fact, is not surprising, Huawei has saddled the most demanded of user requests and is systematically moving in this direction, offering devices with more and more advanced photo capabilities. In the case of the Honor 20 Pro, this is an incredible quality of night shooting due to the large physical size of the photosensitive matrix, proprietary algorithms for which the company has already eaten the dog, and optics unique to smartphones, providing previously unattainable aperture values - f / 1.4.

Honor 20 Pro is equipped with four rear cameras.

The moderator is the same one with a 1/2 ”f / 1.4 aperture of the Sony IMX586 (pixel size 0.8 µm) with a resolution of 48 MP. The camera has both optical and electronic stabilization systems.

There is also a wide-angle module with a resolution of 16 MP - a shooting angle of 117 °, an aperture of f / 2.2.

Next comes the 2 MP peephole specifically designed for macro photography. The minimum distance is 4 cm.

Finally, the fourth camera - 8 MP telephoto withown 4-axis stabilization system. Together, the cameras are able to provide zoom up to 30x. The range of capabilities of one device in terms of shooting looks more than impressive, especially considering that for night shots, even a tripod is not needed.

At the bottom of the photoblock housed the laser autofocus window.

The capabilities of the smartphone were rated in the DxOMark test lab, generously awarding the device as much as 111 points. This puts the Honor 20 Pro in third place in the ranking.

The front camera is also unremarkable - 32 MP, f / 2.0. It includes a lot of software character of the buns: the ability to play with light 3D Portrait Lighting, artificial intelligence, night mode, AIS Super Night mode and an intelligent stabilization algorithm AI Image Stabilization (AIS).

Honor 20 Pro

As a basis for the Honor 20 Pro taken topChipset of its own production - HiSilicon Kirin 980. Proprietary processor optimization technology for the needs of the game demanding performance - GPU Turbo - has grown to version 3.0. The RAM capacity is 8 GB, the built-in drive is 256 GB. There is no expansion slot.

Screen - IPS diagonal 6.26 ″ with a resolution of 1080 × 2340 and a hole for the front camera. The scanner has no prints under it, it is not on the back panel either. It is built into the power button - not the newest idea, but it didn’t become worse with time, it’s even strange that it is used infrequently.

The 4000 mAh battery supports extra fast charging SuperCharge (22.5 W), gaining from zero to 50% charge in 30 minutes.

Sound - virtual multichannel Histen 6.0. Virtual Mode 9.1.

Honor 20 Pro "blue"

A separate description deserves the case. Let's start with the fact that the colors - two of them, are called "blue" and "black." You can't tell by the pictures.

Cunning in a complex multi-layer system using the effect of "dynamic holography." How the smartphone actually looks like, you can try to evaluate the first videos with his participation.

Honor 20

Honor 20 got exactly the same screen, samethe chipset is also equipped with four cameras as part of the main photoblock, however, the device still has to yield a little to the Pro version, so the cameras are different. There are other differences, but this is the main.

The sensor of the leading rear camera is the same 48 MP SonyIMX586, but the aperture value is more ordinary - f / 1.8. There is a 16 MP shirik and a 2 megapixel module for macro shooting. The place of the telephoto camera was taken by a modest 2-megapixel depth-of-scene sensor.

Laser pomkhnik autofocus absent.

The front camera has not changed - 32 MP, f / 2.0.

Honor 20 also has a variation with 8 GB of operationalmemory and 256 GB of storage, but it seems that it is intended only for the domestic Chinese market. On the markets of Europe will release version 6 GB + 128 GB. It's not bad too.

Battery capacity - 3750 mAh. The technology of fast charging is the same as that of Pro - SuperCharge.

The set of colors differs - Honor 20 will be offered in the colors of “flickering black and purple”, “flickering turquoise”, “midnight black”, “sapphire blue” and “frosty white”.

Both devices, of course, support NFC.

Charming detail - as in the descriptionsnow the operating system is indicated - “Magic UI 2.1.0 (compatible with Android 9)”. It is clear that this is “nine” with a proprietary interface from Huawei - just like before. But there is a hint of independence from Google, even if only in words.
