          I've used this phone for over a year now and the view 20 is by far the best phone ever here's why
          First we have the display I know it's lcd and it's not that bright but at least it doesn't drane your battery and it got a 90/92% screen to body ratio and also if u break the screen at least it's cheaper than the amoled like we're talking about way more and it's 60hz refresh rate so it's fast at multitasking
          Second the software it got a kirin 980 chipset (wich is a pretty expensive chip) and it run ur apps smoothly and its a beast when it comes to games (like literally It puts everything to ultra settings) and also it got a liquid cooling system and it got fortnite
          Third the battery last u a maximum 2 days in one charge
          Fourth the camera it's impressive 48 mp lense shoot some amazing pictures and shoot 4k videos and don't forget about the back of the phone it's ridiculous so in the end it's a beefy phone with a fair price plus u can use it as a remote for your TV and it got a headphone jack

            Its July 2020 and this phone is getting the 3.1 update. UI still feels smooth, battery still lasts a day or two.

                      - I don't see anything unbelievable in it. Maybe they did it simply for economy purpose, or they don't want to give NM cards support for Honor subbrand at all (since there is no Honor smartphone with NM card support to date).

                      > "They must have ditched the NM memory idea completely if they don't provide it with their last models."
                      - Again, you are wrong: latest Huawei P30 and P30 Pro have support of NM cards.

So even in the thread people weren't sure until they found out. Well, it seems it doesn't have, and this is a real fiasco, they've lost their minds, that's why it was hard for me to believe. They must have ditched the NM memory idea completely if they don't provide it with their last models. Why did they invest in it if they don't use it? They're mentally insane.

                              Just how long is "long term"?

                                I wrote that already:

                                "In comparison - page of Mate 20 which has support of NM cards: https://consumer.huawei.com/de/phones/mate20/specs/
                                "

                                They specify only presence of NM card slot, if there is no slot - they don't write about it. So View 20 has NO NM CARD SLOT, OPEN YOUR EYES AND MIND ALREADY!

I saw the manufacturer's page from the start, but they often leave out certain specs, I've seen this practice a lot. It doesn't say No on some Memory extension chart field, it simplu doesn't specify anything.

                                    Anyway, Huawei-Honor itself states on their websites that View 20 has no NM card slot - so stop arguing!

                                      Nicolas F, 04 Apr 2019Facepalm... No, it's FACE-DOUBLE-PALM ! I watched this v... moreWhat is supposed to happen after inserting a card? When I insert my SD card, nothing happens, except that the extra space appears on the file explorer menu.

                                        I watched this video - where guy puts NM card in Honor View 20 - AND NOTHING HAPPENS! There was no indication of View 20 reading that card AT ALL!

                                        I even went to German website of Honor - and it also says NOTHING about NM cards support! Neither does Russian website, or British, or French.
                                        https://www.hihonor.com/de/product/honor-view-20 - click on "Technische Daten".
                                        In comparison - page of Mate 20 which has support of NM cards: https://consumer.huawei.com/de/phones/mate20/specs/

                                        By the way, why didn't you check official sites in the first place, before accusing GSMArena of being unprofessional?! Yes, they made mistakes in specifications lists, but not like this. And there was no way they could not recognise if there was NM card slot in View 20 - WHEN THEY OPENED ITS SLOTS TRAY!

                                        This is just ridiculous!
