HONOR 20 Review: Pros & Cons
7.9
out of 10
MSP SCORE
Pros
The Honor 20 features fast performance, great still cameras, feature-rich software, long battery life, and fast charging mechanism. It even looks amazing, thanks to dual-tone colorway.
Cons
The company has definitely cut some corners, and those corners are the display, UI design, video recording quality, loudspeaker, and lack of IP68 certification as well as headphone jack. Even the microSD card slot is missing, so you can't expand storage space.
Verdict
While the Honor 20 looks sleek and fashionable, it would have been even better if the company had opted for an OLED panel. The phone is fast, has dozens of useful software features, and a great set of cameras that take excellent still images. However, video recording quality could've been much better. Moreover, there's no microSD card slot, no IP68 certification for dust and water resistance, no stereo speakers, and no 3.5mm headphone jack, something phones like the ASUS 6Z offer.
Honor 20 Details
Honor 20 Has 6.26-Inch IPS LCD Display
The Honor 20 features a 6.26-inch IPS LCD display with Full HD+ resolution. As you might expect, the display is nearly bezel-less, and it has the same punch-hole in it for the camera as that in its sibling, the Honor View 20. The screen is protected by a scratch-resistant glass panel. The Honor 20 features a metal chassis for added strength. The back of the phone features a dual-color tone that changes colors when light bounces off on it. It looks quite sleek and attractive, especially when there's enough light or light sources around.
Honor 20 Features 48MP AI Quad-Camera
The Honor 20 features a 48MP + 16MP + 2MP + 2MP quad-camera setup. The 48MP sensor is the main unit with a wide-angle FoV, the 16MP sensor is a camera with an ultrawide-angle lens, the 2MP depth sensor helps with bokeh mode, and the other 2MP sensor has a fixed-focus macro length. The rear camera setup of the Honor 20 can record 4K videos at 30fps. The front-facing camera is a 32MP unit, and it can record Full HD videos.

The device runs on Android 9 Pie operating system along with a custom theme from Honor, the Magic UI 2.1. The brand has equipped the smartphone with CPU and GPU Turbo. This technology makes use of AI to help the CPU and the GPU run at their optimum frequencies, based on the application you are using. This not only enhances the performance but also increases the power efficiency of the device. For uninterrupted gaming performance, Honor has also packed the smartphone with Gaming+ mode, which when enabled, mutes the notifications while you are playing a game.
Honor 20 Is Powered By A 3750mAh Battery
The Honor 20 packs a 3750mAh battery and the device supports 22.5W fast charging with the bundled 40W SuperCharge wall charger.
