Honor 20 and 20 Pro hands-on review

21 May 2019
For the first time, Honor departs from its usual flagship releasing scheme by launching not one but two devices at once. And as per tradition in the Android world, it’s a Pro and non-Pro version. In this hands-on review, we will be looking at the both and unlike most OEMs, Honor decided to make the size of both handsets identical, with the Pro taking an edge over the vanilla Honor 20 with better under-the-hood features.

I prefer to use GMail app. However, GMail is also available in the browsers.
So if this phone is around $200 I would definitely buy it even without Google services/apps.

    If the phone won't get further Google updates and all the google services like gamail,YouTube ,play store etc suspended for honor ,what's the purpose of buying such phone ,

      I am sick of all this "Dynamic Holographic back design" BS; manufacturers should leave all customization and prettifying to be OPTIONAL, not an integral part of the device and its price!

          I stopped reading at 79.97...my phone have 75 and I think it's too large to use with one hand.
          guess i will wait for small pixel 4.

            mrAnas31, 21 May 2019it will be a better phone if honor 20 pro was a waterproof phoneEven P30 Pro isn't waterproof. As it turned they die pretty quickly in water.

              You might need to fix P30 lite specs. Question form doesn't seem to go anywhere.
              1. Russian version does have full read/write NFC support.
              2. It needs to be merged with Nova 4e. That's same device and model number. Just different brands for different markets.

                it will be a better phone if honor 20 pro was a waterproof phone

                  Better sharpness because of rgb arrangement

                  No eye pain because of stupid PWM

                  Accurate colors that stay accurate because blue sub pixels don't die fast and makes whites turn yellow

                        Why is there still no datasheet for the Honor 20 Pro.

                            0000, 21 May 2019The side fingerprint is so much better than the In-display ... moreHave to agree. Side fingerprint on the power button is the optimal placement, and OLED is way, way overrated, a good quality LCD is the way to go.

                                  The side fingerprint is so much better than the In-display one. I also like that they put an LCD display in it instead of AMOLED. NO BURN IN AND EYE FATIGUE!

                                    The way frame was cut and the fingerprint scanner are exactly same of Sony 1.
                                    Why do chinese love to copy?

                                      In all honesty, I feel like some would appreciate the LCD. I personally don't, but burn in is a problem after all
