The Honor 20i arrived for pre-order on Monday
despite not being announced, but today the Huawei subsidiary lifted the
curtain. The device comes with Kirin 710 chipset, four memory configurations
and prices of under US$ 300.
The phone looks a lot like the Honor 10i and has a
6.21” LCD with a waterdrop notch and a 32 MP camera tucked in. The main setup
lines up three shooters - 24 MP f/1.8 main, 8 MP f/2.4 with a telephoto lens
and 2 MP f/2.4 depth sensor.
The octa-core chipset is coupled with 4/128 GB, 6/64
GB, 6/128 GB, or 6/256 GB memory, but for some reason, the variant with 128
gigs storage is not available at Vmall, Huawei’s online store. Other noteworthy
bits include include EMUI 9, based on Android Pie, 3,400 mAh battery and dated
micro USB 2.0 port.
Prices for the 4/128 GB and 6/64 GB options are
CNY 1,599 (US$ 240), while the 6/256 GB phone is CNY 2,199. Although the 6/128
GB is nowhere to be seen, its price is reported to be CNY 1,899. The Honor 20i
will start shipping in two days with three color choices - Gradient Blue,
Gradient Red, Midnight Black.
