Honor has just officially unveiled the Honor 20i in China, a phone that will eventually arrive in Europe as Honor 20 Lite. The device features a nearly notchless design, with a waterdrop-shaped notch and a large screen that exceeds 6 inches. To all this we must add a triple main camera with Artificial Intelligence functions, an eight-core processor with 4 or 6 GB of RAM, as well as a capacity of up to 256 GB. The Honor 20 Lite also equips a 3,400 mAh battery with fast charging and is governed by Android 9 Pie under EMUI 9.
For now, the Honor 20 Lite will go on sale in China (as Honor 20i) at a price from 210 euros to change depending on the version. Keep reading if you want to know all the details in full.

The Honor 20 Lite has a design very similar to its predecessor, the Honor 10 Lite. The front is still the complete protagonist, with a panel with hardly any frames and a notch or notch in the shape of a drop of water. The screen has a size of 6.21 inches and a FullHD + resolution of 2,340 x 1,080 with a 19.5: 9 aspect ratio. The rear is slightly different from the Honor 10 Lite, as it has three cameras instead of two. Otherwise, it still offers a clean, minimalist look, with a fingerprint reader. Of course, the Honor logo is now arranged at the bottom in a horizontal position. It is no longer in the bottom corner vertically.
Inside the Honor 20 Lite we find an eight-core Kirin 710 processor, which we have already seen in other models of the company. This SoC works at a speed of 2.2 GHz and is accompanied by 4 or 6 GB of RAM and 64, 128 or 256 GB of internal storage (expandable by using microSD cards up to 512 GB). As for the photographic section, the Honor 20 Lite includes three sensors on its back. The main camera has a resolution of 24 megapixels and aperture f / 1.8. This is accompanied by a second 8-megapixel sensor and f / 2.4 aperture, and a third for 2-megapixel depth readings with f / 2.4 aperture. Inside the notch there is a 32 megapixel sensor for selfies (f / 2.0 aperture) hidden, we imagine that with software portrait mode.
For the rest, the Honor 20 Lite equips a 3,400 mAh battery with fast charging and is governed by Android 9 Pie along with the company's EMUI 9 customization layer.
