Kirin 980's still a solid 7nm chipset for 2019-era performance, and paired with 8GB RAM plus up to 256GB storage, the HONOR 20 Pro handles multitasking without much fuss. The 6.26-inch IPS LCD panel runs at 1080 x 2340 with decent pixel density, and the fingerprint sensor sits on the side rather than under the display or on the back.

The camera setup is where this phone tries to stand out: a 48MP main lens with OIS, an 8MP telephoto giving 3x optical zoom, a 16MP ultrawide, and a 2MP macro shooter round out the quad array. Front camera comes in at 32MP for selfies and video calls. HONOR 20 Pro price in Malaysia starts from RM1859.

Battery capacity sits at 4000 mAh with 22.5W fast charging, claimed to hit 50% in half an hour. It ships with Android 9.0 Pie under Magic UI 2.1, and you get NFC, dual-band WiFi, and an IR blaster thrown in. Three colourways are available: Phantom Blue, Phantom Black, and Icelandic Illusion.
