Xda-Developers | Honor View20 Review: The First Flagship Smartphone with a 48MP Camera
The Honor View20 has already been officially available in China (as the Honor V20) since late December, but now the device has been launched internationally in Europe as well. We got our first hands-on with the device at CES 2019. Now, our own TK Bay has published a video review on the XDA TV YouTube channel. The Honor View20 has a lot of unique features such as a 48MP rear camera joined by a 3D Time of Flight sensor, a 4.5mm punch hole for the 25MP front camera, a Kirin 980 chipset, and a 4,000mAh battery. Check out the video below to see TK's thoughts on the View20 from Honor.
We'll have a full camera review coming later, but we spent a lot of time with the View20 ahead of its launch event to see how its 48MP camera performs on the streets of Paris. We are choosing not to upload the original resolution photos here as to not significantly increase the page load time, so if you want to view the uncompressed photos you can do so here. We took a lot more photos than what we're showing here, but again, we'll have a full Honor View20 camera review at a later date.
For your reference, we have added the table we made that lists the specifications and features of the Honor View20.
