Honor V20 specifications Honor has already unveiled that its V20 is powered by the HiSilicon Kirin 980 SoC, which is the company’s latest flagship chip with dual NPU and ISP. The phone also features a 48MP rear camera which employs the Sony IMX586 sensor. The camera makes use of AI with the help of dual-ISP and dual-NPU on the Kirin 980, and is said to automatically perform multi-frame image processing for capturing better, more detailed images. The device's main camera features a massive 1/2.0-inch CMOS sensor with 0.8 µm/pixel configuration and 4-in1 Light Fusion, which is basically pixel binning technology. However, a new report suggests that there might also be a ToF (Time of Flight) 3D camera sensor on the back. In terms of the display, Honor says that the V20’s screen extends to “almost” 100 percent, thanks to the punch hole design for the front camera. Additionally, the new cutout design is said to have been achieved with the help of an 18-layer technology stack. The front camera cutout is 4.5mm in diameter and as mentioned earlier, the new display design is being called Full-View Display 3.0. The handset also features a new Link Turbo option, which is said to assess network conditions to automatically switch between Wi-Fi or 4G networks. A similar option comes built-in in Android phones. However, what’s new is that Honor’s Link Turbo tech is said to be capable of boosting download speeds by adopting both networks. It’s not clear whether both Wi-Fi and cellular networks are used simultaneously or not. While the Honor View20 has bagged the title of being the first phone with a 48MP camera, Xiaomi could also soon come up with its Mi 9 smartphone. The Mi 9 is rumoured to feature a 48MP camera sensor on the rear and could be launched running on the Snapdragon 8150, which is now confirmed to be the Snapdragon 855. However, unlike a single camera on the View20, the Mi 9 might come equipped with a triple rear camera setup with 48MP Sony IMX586 as the primary sensor. The device is also tipped to feature an under-display fingerprint scanner, which suggests at the presence of an AMOLED display.
