As a reminder, the Honor 20 series were first announced at a launch event in London earlier in May, and like most Honor’s phones, the Honor20 and 20 Pro flaunt a three-layer rear design with a holographic rear design, which will give it a distinct look. Both devices defy the trend as the maker decided to opt for fingerprint sensor mounted on the power button on the side of the phone instead of in the screen or the rear like many new phones.
Both devices, however, go with small ‘punch-hole’ trend which houses the front cameras to the top left of the display. The display on both smartphones is a 6.26-inch display, and under the hood is the same chipset on the Huawei P30 – Huawei’s current cutting-edge Kirin 980 chipset. The devices also get similar rear and front cameras, though the Honor20 Pro an edge ahead of the standard Honor20. You can get the full Honor 20, 20 Pro and 20 Lite/20i specs and feature here.
