00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:08,400
honor reached out to us to do a sponsored showcase of their new flagship

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:11,599
for 2019 the honor vue 20. and this

3
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:14,880
is a really flashy phone both on the

4
00:00:11,599 --> 00:00:18,440
outside and on the inside and with heat

5
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:26,560
pipe cooling let's get into it

6
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:32,880
first things first the screen and wow

7
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:38,640
that's a dynamic wallpaper if i ever saw one anyway this is actually the first

8
00:00:36,160 --> 00:00:42,559
all-screen display with a hole punch style selfie camera that we've had here

9
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:49,920
in our studio and you know what i've got to say between the intrusiveness of a giant

10
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:50,640
notch and the more gimmicky solutions

11
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:55,120
like sliding phones that have a lot of question marks still about their

12
00:00:53,680 --> 00:01:00,559
reliability this ended up looking like a far more

13
00:00:58,239 --> 00:01:04,640
reasonable compromise than i initially thought you've still got just about the

14
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:10,000
entire status bar to fill up with notifications and meanwhile it has a

15
00:01:07,119 --> 00:01:14,720
self-reported 91.8 screen to body ratio another cool thing

16
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:18,960
is that honor is still treating it like a notch so they're still giving you the

17
00:01:16,799 --> 00:01:23,119
ability to hide it and putting in virtual bezels when you're watching full

18
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:27,200
screen content in landscape mode so

19
00:01:24,320 --> 00:01:31,680
bottom line until we start to get camera under screen tech over the next

20
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:35,360
hopefully year or two this hole punch style is only going to grow in

21
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:39,680
popularity and the way honor has done it on the view 20 is pretty cool because

22
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:44,720
unlike punching a hole through all of the layers of the display except for the

23
00:01:42,079 --> 00:01:50,159
glass like samsung does on their a8 honor says that this front camera only

24
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:53,920
partially penetrates the screen which is apparently an advantage since not only

25
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:57,840
does it make it a bit less of a weak point where your screen is susceptible

26
00:01:55,759 --> 00:02:03,680
to breaking but each layer that the camera intersects with has the potential

27
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:05,840
to leak light onto the camera sensor not

28
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:09,679
a bright idea now the camera itself is pretty small

29
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:14,959
and unobtrusive it's four and a half millimeters or a little under 3 16 of an

30
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:18,239
inch for our friends in the us and a and they were able to get it this small

31
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:23,040
using a technique where the liquid crystals in the lcd's neighboring pixels

32
00:02:20,959 --> 00:02:27,680
will allow light to pass through to the 25 megapixel front camera

33
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:33,160
now some of you may have noticed that the vue 20 already comes with a screen

34
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:37,120
protector applied to its 6.4 inch

35
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:39,519
19.25 by 9 screen but it also comes

36
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:45,920
packaged with a basic plastic case which is clear so you can show off this

37
00:02:42,879 --> 00:02:48,720
crazy glass back now honor has done

38
00:02:45,920 --> 00:02:54,239
flashy iridescent backings in the past but this is the first time that they've

39
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:56,720
used nano optical lithography to give it

40
00:02:54,239 --> 00:03:01,200
this really funky chevron pattern i think it looks freaking awesome

41
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:05,440
taking it off though the sides of the phone are metal giving it a nice premium

42
00:03:03,599 --> 00:03:10,879
feeling and then around the rest of it you'll find a usb type c a single down

43
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:14,640
firing speaker so no stereo sound unfortunately but at least it's

44
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:19,440
positioned so that it won't get covered by your hand in landscape mode it's got

45
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:23,840
dual nano sims with dual standby support and finally a headphone jack

46
00:03:22,640 --> 00:03:29,920
nice wrapping up our tour of the outside of the phone we've got the rear cameras so

47
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:37,200
the vue 20 is one of the first devices to use sony's imx 586 sensor which

48
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:40,959
combines a big half inch cmos with tiny

49
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:43,120
0.8 micrometer pixels to deliver a 48

50
00:03:40,959 --> 00:03:49,120
megapixel camera that's got a ton of zany features from 960fps slow motion

51
00:03:46,159 --> 00:03:53,280
video to ai clarity mode which takes a bunch of pictures at once then uses all

52
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:57,360
of the information to make a brighter more detailed composite to the ability

53
00:03:55,440 --> 00:04:03,680
to slim a person NVIDIA

54
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:06,560
in real time so you can enhance your

55
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:09,519
body to get the perfect look anytime anywhere

56
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:14,760
james can we try this here's shaping level five

57
00:04:18,079 --> 00:04:26,240
now all of these ai focus features are of course enabled by the vue 20's chiron

58
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:28,639
980 processor which has two npus or

59
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:34,800
neural processing units as well as an 8-core CPU and making its first

60
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:37,759
commercial appearance the mali g76 GPU

61
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:43,840
it also comes with 6 or 8 gigs of 21 33 megahertz RAM and 128 or 256 gigs of

62
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:47,199
storage with each tier corresponding to different color options

63
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:51,360
the coolest thing about this device though is what honor calls the 9 which

64
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:55,199
is a cooling solution that was first showcased at the honor note 10

65
00:04:53,280 --> 00:05:00,720
conference in china back in december 2018 it's a nine layer thermal design

66
00:04:58,479 --> 00:05:04,960
including things like a copper alloy shield an f-shaped copper heat pipe and

67
00:05:03,199 --> 00:05:10,639
a graphene heatsink and it's not the only gamer focused

68
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:13,280
feature in the view 20. it also sports

69
00:05:10,639 --> 00:05:17,440
three wi-fi antennas since the usual two antennas on a handset can be susceptible

70
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:20,320
to being blocked by your hands when you're gaming in landscape mode like if

71
00:05:19,199 --> 00:05:25,600
you think about it your hands are basically made of water rf does not like

72
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:29,440
water so the extra antenna is on the back of the phone over by the volume

73
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:32,960
button here where you're less likely to cover it and the phone will

74
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:36,720
automatically switch between antennas according to which one has the strongest

75
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:40,639
signal the aim here was to deliver a more consistent gaming experience and

76
00:05:39,280 --> 00:05:45,680
you should have lots of time to gain that xp with the vue 20's 4 000 milliamp

77
00:05:43,759 --> 00:05:49,520
hour battery it's pretty generous actually like we've seen batteries this

78
00:05:47,280 --> 00:05:54,000
size on gaming phones but a lot of the time they end up being quite thick and

79
00:05:51,759 --> 00:05:57,680
the mainstream stuff like even the plus size tends to be around the 3 500

80
00:05:55,759 --> 00:06:01,520
milliamp hour range so that's pretty nice to see

81
00:05:59,039 --> 00:06:05,360
finally honors purple usb cable means that this phone supports super charging

82
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:09,759
so the phone is rated for a full charge in 90 minutes or 55

83
00:06:07,919 --> 00:06:13,120
in 30 minutes so thanks to honor for sponsoring this
