Again under the performance heading, we ran 3DMark benchmark, the Sling Shot Extreme and as expected, the Honor 20e scored a middling 1080. The average for all Android devices is 2140. Sling Shot Extreme is a demanding benchmark. As such, even with an OpenGL ES 3.1 score of 989, it still outperformed 72% of phones in this test. It is all down to the timing of the launch of the handset and when the trade ban was implemented by the U.S. Government. In May 2019 the government barred companies from working with Huawei and Honor thus stopping access to Google Mobile Services and updates. The Honor 20, Honor 20 Pro and by extension the Honor 20e was announced in China on the 21 May 2019. This and other Huawei and Honor smartphones launched on or before May 2019 were allowed to use the services and access to Google Play Store, Google Assistant and updates. The IPS display offers plenty in way of sharpness and brightness. It has a dewdrop notch, one that I prefer to Apple’s big ugly notch. That 6.21-inch display is effectively full view, edge-to-edge safe for the slightly bigger chin (bottom) bezel. This gives the Honor 20e over 90% screen-to-body ratio. As for the details and colour, you get Full HD+ resolution at 2340 x 1080 pixels with an IPS panel. Watching Full HD 1080p video on the display is a real treat.

Our only niggle is our protective glass film was applied slightly off center, but you only notice this if look closely. Also, with the edge-to-edge display and using gestures instead of the three key navigation, you do feel the edge of the glass film when swiping from the edges (left, right or bottom) to the center. Cameras With a curved-edge, 6.67-inch panel, the Honor 70 is attractive to look at, with good contrast and rich colors on display regardless of what you're doing. Elsewhere, it has great camera capabilities – you're getting a 54MP main lens and a 50MP ultra-wide lens – although we weren't hugely impressed by its 2MP depth sensor. Elsewhere, the Honor 50's main camera works well, but it's the selfie camera that provides bold imagery with natural-looking depth effects that further improve things.Everything else is fairly standard, albeit reliable, but for selfie addicts, this could be a significant selling point. It is important to strictly use Honor authorised repair services. Unauthorised service providers may not be equipped with Honor certified repair tools, and may not be professionally trained or have the required knowledge to repair Honor products. This may lead to further damage, device performance issues, or safety hazards.

You can also set Bedtime mode under Settings > Digital Wellbeing and Parental Controls. Set your bedtime to silence the phone and put the screen on greyscale.

Honor 20e Review - This is a whole lot different - Coolsmartphone

You also get all the Google apps, so the fully-featured YouTube app, the Google Maps app, Gmail and so on – right out of the box… We’ve looked at a number of Honor devices lately. The Honor 9X and the Honor 9A– both very good phones considering how cheap they are. Oh and yes, as mentioned before, the Google Play Store is indeed here, so no need to worry about not having that. It means that all the links you find on the internet, all the normal apps you expect, will be there and it’ll work in the same way as every other Android smartphone.. We will look at the camera performance in detail in our next post. Here are some of the Super Night Shots that were taken with the Honor 20e. I should just mention that, even though Google Play is here, the Huawei AppGallery (mentioned in our earlier articles) is installed should you need it. Petal Search too.The second camera is an 8MP sensor with an ultra-wide angle 17mm lens and F/2.4 aperture. This allows you to capture ultra wide images such as landscape or even full body portraits close up. The effective angle is 120 degrees wide. When shooting using the ultra-wide angle lens, do not be alarmed when the framed image on the screen suffers from fish-eye effect. This will be corrected by the camera software. If I was to choose a colour though, I’d definitely go for the Phantom Blue – it just has a more individual appearance. There is a lot to like about the Honor20e. You may not get 5G connectivity or WiFi 6, these are features reserved for flagship smartphones but it is still nippy. Camera performance is better than expected. Low light performance gets a helping hand with Super Night mode, but only if the subject stays relatively still. The battery capacity could be a little higher for a premium phone and it's a fingerprint magnet, but other than that, the Honor Magic 4 Pro is still tremendous in almost every way. There’s the usual plethora of settings, including eye comfort,smart screen resolution changing (to maintain power), colour settings – even the ability to remove the network name if you don’t want that showing. All of this (and a whole lot more) can be accessed just by sliding down from the top..
