Verdict

The Honor 20 faces stiff competition from the OnePlus 7 (review), which offers slightly faster performance and a cleaner software to boot. That said, the Honor 20 offers much better cameras, so it`s a toss-up between the two handsets.Buyers should also watch out for the upcoming ASUS 6Z (first impressions), which ships with an articulating camera mechanism and the latest Silicon from Qualcomm.

The Honor 20 faces stiff competition from the OnePlus 7 (review), which offers slightly faster performance and a cleaner software to boot. That said, the Honor 20 offers much better cameras, so it`s a toss-up between the two handsets.Buyers should also watch out for the upcoming ASUS 6Z (first impressions), which ships with an articulating camera mechanism and the latest Silicon from Qualcomm. Our initial impressions of the handset were quite positive, so you might want to wait for our full review of the phone before adding any device to your cart.I`ve spent over two weeks with the Honor 20 in my pockets and for the first time in a while, the most used app on my phone has been the camera application. What`s even more fascinating is that unlike the Google Pixel 3a - which too is a fantastic camera phone - Honor didn`t cut any corners in the performance or the design department to make the Honor 20 affordable.Suffice it to say, the Honor 20 is a phenomenal flagship and I cannot recommend it enough. Unfortunately, owing to its parent company`s ongoing dispute with the US Government, some buyers might sway away from the phone, and who can blame them? That said, things could change for the better just in case the ban is rescinded in the near future. If it`s any consolation, the Honor 20 has been certified by Google and therefore, while the device might not get the Android Q update, it will get regular security patches and full support for Google Play services. If you can look past the brand`s ongoing conflicts, then at a starting price of Rs 32,999, the Honor 20 is a no-brainer.

    Pros

  • Good-looking design
  • Fantastic cameras
  • Reliable performance

    Cons

  • No headphone jack
  • Macro lens doesn`t autofocus on subject
  • Might not get Android Q update

Design and Display +

Here's the thing – you'll be hard-pressed to find a bad-looking Android handset anymore. Most, if not all Android phones feature stunning designs these days, but smartphones from Honor's stables always take it to the next level. Case in point, the Honor 20, which has been constructed using a mix of glass and metal and it looks downright gorgeous. I mean, just look at some of the design shots of the phone and tell me if it doesn't get your blood pumping.

The Honor 20 is a beast of a camera phone and the device features a quad camera setup at the back comprising a 48MP Sony IMX 586 sensor with f/1.4 aperture, a 16MP wide-angle lens with f/2.2 aperture, a 2MP, f/2.4 aperture super macro shooter and a 2MP f/2.4 aperture depth sensor. Now, while the cameras click excellent photos during the day, it's the smartphone's lowlight photography prowess that has me in awe.

Performance, Software and Battery life +

The Honor 20 is backed by the latest silicon from Huawei in the form of Kirin 980 which works alongside 6GB of RAM and 128GB of built-in, non-expandable storage. Now, the Kirin 980 is an extremely capable chip and therefore, you shouldn't find any issues with the Honor 20's performance. That said, when compared to the OnePlus 7, the Honor 20 did take a little longer to load heavy games and certain apps which can be accredited to the faster UFS 3.0 storage standard used on OnePlus' latest flagships. The difference isn't night and day, and only discerning power users will notice it, but it's worth mentioning that the Honor 20 isn't the fastest budget flagship.
