The Honor V20 was officially
unleashed. The new phone adopts the glamorous punch-hole screen design and is
equipped with the Kirin 980 processor. The starting price is 2999 yuan (US$ 435). In terms of appearance, the Honor
V20 adopts a 6.4-inch punch-hole screen, with a screen aperture of 4.5mm and a
high screen ratio. With a streamlined body and back V-shaped texture, it offers
Charm Sea Blue, Charm Red, and Magic Night Black color variants. In addition,
Honor has also cooperated with the Italian fashion brand MOSCHINO to launch the
customized version of this handset, namely the Honor V20 MOSCHINO. The latter
has two color options of Phantom Blue and Phantom Red. It features a special
double-layer diaphragm design and Teddy Bear exclusive wallpaper.
The Honor V20, as we have heard before, is packed
with a Kirin 980 chip. Compared with the previous generation, the CPU
performance is increased by 75% and the GPU performance is increased by 46%.
There is also a built-in 4000mAh battery, supporting 4.5V5A super-fast charge.
One of the noteworthy features of the Honor V20 is the use of THE NINE liquid
cooling technology. But also we’d like to mention the WALN three-antenna
design, which makes the phone bid farewell to the ‘death grip’.
The newly announced Honor V20 is also very
attractive in terms of camera. It uses Sony’s 48-megapixel IMX 586 sensor with
1/2-inch pixel size, supplemented by a ToF stereo deep sensor. But this camera
also supports the fourth-generation dual-channel ISP, dual-brain NPU, and AIS
handheld super night scene. There is a 25MP AI selfie shooter on the front.
The rest of amazing features of the Honor V20
includes the GPU Turbo 2.0, ‘cloud computers’ that can turn the phone into a
Windows 10 computer, and GPU Cloud that turns the handset into a super game
console. The Honor V20 supports AI dual-frequency GPS and uses the
self-developed HI 1103 GPS chip for more accurate positioning. It comes with
YOYO voice assistant.
As for pricing, the Honor V20 6+128GB variant costs
2999 yuan, while the 8+128GB model is offered at 3499 yuan (Us$ 507). It is
already available for pre-order and will hit the market on December 28.
