Huawei Honor 40 Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos

Huawei Honor 40 - a fateful moment

The Chinese company Huawei has been able to overcome many trials in recent years, but the US government continues to restrict the conditions of the corporation. For example, a world-famous manufacturer will now virtually not be able to create its own Kirin processors, which is why a significant number of new models will now acquire analogs from another developer. The hero of today's review is no exception. But will the audience like this change?

The appearance of the novelty is admirable. The square of the main photomodules, the hand-cooling metal edging, the original colors of the rear glass panel, the front 32-megapixel camera located in the upper left corner of the frameless display look at least nice. The 6.59-inch screen is made using AMOLED technology and is characterized by very high brightness and contrast. In addition, the AMOLED panel boasts a resolution of 2400x1080 pixels, an image refresh rate of 90 hertz , and a built-in fingerprint sensor .

Specifications will be unusual for fans of the brand. However, to criticize chip Mediatek Dimensity 1000+, as well as the 8 / 12GB of RAM and a graphics adapter MaliG77MC9 for low productivity is simply impossible, because the most demanding games obey PHABLET at maximum graphics presets. And everything is in order with the energy efficiency of the bundle. It is quite possible to get about 9-10 hours of active screen time from a 4260mAh battery charge.

The main 64-, 8-, 5- and 2-megapixel photomodules headed by the Sony IMX686 sensor will delight you with the details of images and their color reproduction, but the results could be even better with optical stabilization. NFC and Android 11 contactless payments make the device more attractive, but the lack of Google services, a separate headphone jack, stereo speakers, and wireless charging will negatively affect the popularity of the gadget. As a result, we got a beautiful, technological and balanced device, the disadvantages of which did not even outweigh the abundance of advantages. But for a number of users, they will be critical.
