Honor 20i Expert Review Summary

Verdict
Let me just put this out there, Honor 20i might not receive the Android Q update as the result of the US ban. So if that`s something that would bother you, it`s better to look elsewhere. Buyers can look out for the Samsung Galaxy M30 (review), Realme 3 Pro (review) and Redmi Note 7 Pro (review). And as mentioned earlier, the Snapdragon 845-toting POCO F1 (review) is also an option if you stretch your budget slightly.That being said, Honor 20i probably has the best camera setup of the lot and that night mode is completely phenomenal. Moreover, the smartphone has been loaded with decent int...

So, let's address the elephant in the room first. These days, you will be hard pressed to tell one smartphone from another in the budget segment, except maybe for Nokia as it launches sedate slab-like devices. The latest offerings from most phone brands in the affordable segment flaunt glossy finishes with gradient hues. The Honor 20i comes from a phonemaker that started this phenomenon, and as such comes with a gradient hue that lends it a premium feel. IMHO the phone looks as good if not better than its flashier flagship siblings.

Before I delve into the imaging prowess of the Honor 20i, let me come clean on one account. We received the Honor 20 earlier and a colleague got the chance to try out the smartphone's camera in Taiwan. The camera stunned everyone with its low-light imaging prowess as he mentioned in his review. Considering the Honor 20 costs double the 20i, I didn't have high expectations from the latter to begin with, but the smartphone shut me up and how.

The Honor 20i has the HiSilicon Kirin 710 SoC ticking at its core, which is a 12nm 64-bit octa-core processor. The chipset is backed by 4GB of RAM and 128GB of user-expandable storage. The mid-range processor is quite adequate for daily usage, and during my time with the smartphone, I seldom came across any UI lag while multitasking or simply navigating through the interface.
