Clarity/resolution - Honor View 20 Real Life Review

The Honor View 20 has a crazy crisp display. Just kidding, this is automated text so who knows if this screen is any good. So, you be the judge! A higher rating indicates that it's extremely sharp and clear, and that you cannot see pixels with your naked eye.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

Why Honor makes their icons and fonts so huge is beyond me. It's like looking at a VGA screen.

I agree that the fonts are really huuuge but everything else is great.

Screen is fine. You can adjust the font size and display zoom as required. Also making sure smart resolution is off, and 1080p is selected helps for crispyness. Replacing the prefitted plastic screen protector with a glass one helps.
I watch movies on Netflix and Amazon Prime with no issues. I also edited my last YouTube video on the View 20 again with no issues as screen was excellent to see everything.
My only wish is they had some control for icon size on the EMUI launcher. Some of the themes do adjust the fonts and icon/folder size, just wish there was a built in option.

Hey, just a quick question: can you confirm, that Netflix and Prime Video work in HD quality on this phone? I know Netflix supports HD on Kirin 980 devices, but never had chance to try it.

Hey, did you do anything to get it working? I bought my V20 today and Netflix doesn't play in HD. There's no "HD" badge next to the title like on my LG G6.
It's stock View 20, official UK distribution, I've got Nova launcher but when I opened Netflix in default launcher it didn't make any difference...

Nothing special. I also have UK stock from Carphonewarehouse. I did have a firmware update when I first used phone. I'm on firmware 9.0.1.125
In Netflix app, I did make sure settings correct.

I can't get it... I even turned off dynamic resolution change and it still doesn't work ;/ Well, maybe it will fix itself with time.

The clarity is fine. Nothing that will blow your mind. Would be nice to see honor go back to the UHD displays like they had with the Honor 8 Pro.

DISPLAY: Clarity/Resolution

The Note5 has a 1440x2560 display with a pixel density of 515ppi. If you don't know what a pixel is, you should probably look it up somewhere. Rate this thread to express how clear and crisp you think the Note5's display is. A higher rating indicates that it's extremely sharp and clear, and that you cannot see pixels with your naked eye.

Clarity is insane. I can't see pixels even if I enable my superman goggles. Great screen, tack-sharp.

Videos appear quite grainy, even if they are 720p or 1080p. In some cases I can see dancing grains. Sometimes the colours burst/blow up for pictures/photos taken from different device or websites.
I had similar issues with Galaxy Tab-S, which was even worse in video and picture quality. My older Note-3 on the other hand is giving crystal clear image.
Great job with dat display Samsung.

Video appears grainy? Could it be the source? I'll give you an example. If you watch the film Green Zone, the source of the blu ray transfer from film is heavy amount of grain. NOT the phone's fault. I know this is NOT a HDTV forum, or maybe we should start one for video/audiophiles. Just because it's grainy, doesn't mean it's the phones fault. I've seen films like Sucker Punch, where the film is low grain on the film source, before the transfer to blu ray. But it's my cents about it. Either way, it looks fantastic on this phone.

YEs they did a fantastic job on this display. The clarity and resolution is very good. I'm not using displaymate or THX app or programs to do this testing. Just watching youtube vids, high quality Blu ray films, twitch, Netflix and alike. The screen on the note 3 was good. On the note 5, its beautiful to watch

4K screen - Who really has noticed a difference?

I came from a Samsung s6 Edge+ and it had a pretty good screen with 518ppi
Sony made a big deal about the 4k screen. But do you really notice it?
When i first got it a few days ago. I was not sure what to expect. Would i notice it or not, because it's not always in 4k.
Theres a lot of people out there saying it's a gimmick and you wont notice it because your eyes cannot see the pixels to notice it.
Well it was the first thing i noticed. The fact i couldn't see any sharp edges on the text. Everything was so smooth and fluid. Even though the pixels on my edge+ are small, and i put it side to side and although its minimal, but i could notice the difference.
I had a friend show me a video on youtube today, it was a good quality video ect. Then i showed him a video about our topic, not talking about the phone. As soon as he watched the video, he right away commented on the screen how it looked so realistic and smooth.
So In my opinion, Yes i can see the difference with a 4k screen. It's not a gimmick. What are your thoughts?
Sure I can see it, problem is that when you've seen the 4k content you can actually notice going back to full hd...
It's the text on the screen most especially ?, it was soooo clean I had to double check on my ex (the OP3T). The difference can clearly been seen. It's a very good display

The display is amazing
I used ADB to set the display to be 4K all the time. Yes there is a difference, but unless you use really small display scaling/text, it won't be very evident. Still, this is probably one of the sharpest displays available to consumers in the world. You will never see a jagged edge.

You need to smoke something and you'll see the difference haha. It's more or a gimmick and I wished there was more 4k content. But the experience is new and strange. I feel the urge to stick my eyes on the screen to see more details, or use a magnifying glass. But for recreational purposes, it's a cool thing. A neat trick.
Yeah there's a difference. My way of explaining it, the experience is surreal. You don't really notice it, but your brain kinda do. I don't know how to really explain this. When I enabled the 4K using adb, I can see that the display is so great, like a printed paper as per said by Erica Griffin - she's very nitpicky when it comes to display. So when this display got an approval from her, it's a big thing.
Watch this video on YouTube if you haven't: Peru 8K.
What I can tell is my head hurts after watching it lol. Now I really hope I can easily move to Peru! Your brain got confused, it knows that what you see on the screen is not real, but the display image reproduction is so damn real that it's like looking through a window rather than a display. When your little friendly brain got confused, you'll get headache. Need some time to getbused to it. So for me, yes it is noticable.
I actually prefer this over Samsung's OLED display. This display kinda produce more colour, it's vibrant but still kind on the eyes. My eyes hurt and get tired after watching something on the S8. With a display this good, I don't even notice this phone's large bezels!
I don't know guys, I'm still on the fence and can't really tell. Maybe it's my eyes lol, or my super high expectations.
I tried watching Peru 8k in YouTube but it kept buffering. Bummer. It looked amazing but experience limited by size of screen.

Lol I saw this video some time ago and was wowed[emoji23]....
Amazon prime video finally showed a video in 4k HDR and I was left in Wonderland. I could tell the difference in quality right away because some parts other video were in full HD before snapping into 4k mode.
After the adb switch to 4k, the most noticeable difference is how everything's SUPER CLEAR. It's the exact same thing that happened to me when I switched my pc monitor from FHD TO 4K. The text and other elements on the screen are soo defined.
I left it in 4k because it had very little to no effect on my battery and performance. I rather enjoy the full 4k display [emoji16]

I might misunderstood you but here's how to do it.
You just install the .apk on your pc, then transfer the .apk file into your phone's storage once you connect these two devices using usb cable and allow file transfer. Be cautious since some people tinker with the app and change it into malware so install TubeMate .apk only from it's Google+ page. Next, find the file in your phone and execute it within your phone. Make sure beforehand you go to Settings>Lock Screen & Security to toggle on Unknown Sources.

Did you watch in 8K or 4K? cause I think HDR kicks in 8K am I right? I downloaded both 8K and 4K and I can see the HDR difference in monitor! I am gonna transfer both files and see.
Need more 4K HDR stuff

Honestly I'm not sure how exactly HDR in this phone works ie whether it is turned on all the time or only kicks in if the content supported it. I'm keen towards the second one.
I use professional mode (sRGB) and the colour reproduction is just realistic and outstanding I'm in love with everything I see now ? and HDR is the best under-appreciated thing ever.
I can only watch in 4K since I'm using the phone to both download and watch. Prior to downloading, the max resolution I am allowed to choose is only 4K. I think if you transfer the 8K video into your phone it will be played in only 4K, but the quality is still top-notch.
What I think is worth mentioning here is I realised after enabling 4K all the time, 480p video on YouTube looks sharper and clearer compared to when 4K is disabled.

Photo quality

Say "cheese", then rate this thread to express how photos taken with the Asus ROG Phone come out. A higher rating indicates that photos offer rich color (without over-saturating), sharp detail (with all subjects in-focus), and appropriate exposure (with even lighting).
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
I haven't been able to play much with the phone, since I haven't got a cover for it yet.
But in the super resolution option, the camera is using 49MP? or is it actually just upscaled resolution from the 12MP? I hope future update will bring 960fps slowmotion.

it appears that it takes multiple photos at different exposures kind of like an hdr image, but stitches them together in a way that produces an nMP x 4 resulting image, in this case 12MP x 4 = 48MP. Don't know where you got 49, is the sensor maybe like 12.2MP or something?
So anyway, its not a true 48/49MP image, but its not just an upscale either.
I'm sure updates will start rolling out in a few months, it will interesting to see what they can bring. I don't know much about asus phones, but I'ved owned a ton of asus products, and I'm sure the rog phone will at least get something cool :good:

Hopefully you can see the picture. And in the corner it shows 49M. I wish Oneplus 6/T would release their gaming mode for all Androids. It is much better done than the gaming mode asus has.
Yea I see, I'll correct myself. "I don't know where IT got 49
Is gaming mode like when you go to developer settings and enable CPU high performance mode? sounds like it essentially does the same thing... I'n which case I wouldn't care because it will already be way faster than my m7 haha
maybe you could upload some pics with super res on and off, seeing as this is a photo quality thread?

Go for it, it's a great phone like the colored great sounding speakers, design symmetry which is rare to find now a days. There are a lot of pros going for this phone. I would say it's worth its price, could it have been better? sure!. But the same argument applies to every phone out there.

Currently using 1st gen RazerPhone and although the screens a bit dark I was mainly looking to get this phone for Netflix and Google/YouTube Premium. Now I know HDR isn't everything but how is video and sound on this phone for Netflix. With Amoled screen I feel it would be better and curious if any black borders on screen during YouTube or Netflix playback. While also going back to 1080 from 1440.

I'm currently using an m7 and the speakers are definitely blown after all these years (almost 5). I have an ROG phone in transit right now, was supposed to be delivered today but the canada post stike is messing with all the couriers right now so fedex hasn't shipped it yet. probably tomorrow. almost for sure. I will definitely let you know how everything is when I get it though! plus I plan to root it and find mods and see what else the phone is capable of.
In regards to black borders on youtube and netflix, since the phone is 18:9 it will definitely have them on netflix, since everything on there is pretty much all 16:9. Youtube has a mix now of multiple aspect ratios so it depends. I'm sure you could zoom in to crop it to 18:9 but I'd prefer the black borders over that personally. (maybe future phones could have ai that fills in the black with generated content? haha)

I remember TVs doing this and started to watch what I could of blizzcon 2018 where my friends TV was cutting alot of the screen off the picture off as menus where not right as per it's display from the laptop so made everyone wait will I fixed the TV. I agree I'm too use to 16:9 now and although I won't be selling my RazerPhone it will probably always be with me as a 2nd phone in my tech bag as you never know when it's needed plus being on a true unlimited data plan with not tethering limit its handy to just have spare if I need it or someone else needs it if traveling. I'll have to live with some bars as 18:9 is still new but did see this.
Any video letterboxing is moot as the actual size of the video doesn't change relative to a 16:9 screen, and actually the extended width can help for movies that are shot is a wider aspect.

yea exactly, since the video resolution doesn't actually change its just best to live with the bars. you still have to do it when watching 4:3 content on a 16:9 anyway so its kinda like the same thing.

Yeah I am currently going through some old Star Trek on Netflix and completely forgot about the 4:3 bars. I will probably drop my pre order once I hear back from Asus regarding their 4G supported bands and if they match my Carriers bands. I don't want a phone which doesn't work on 4G. Plus there's and LTE issues with non partner/devices bought from manufacture direct that don't have their branded image on them may not work. trying to get ThreeUK and Asus to confirm i wont have an issue. Plus I know i have 15 days to return it with Asus but want them to advise if i have to pay p&p to return it if it doesn't do what I need.

you can double check, I found that the rog supports 4 of 6 lte bands my carrier offers which means slightly restricted throughput/signal strength in certain areas of the city but still lte everywhere.
try googling your carrier + lte bands and see if you can't find some useful information. also google the bands that it does offer to see which ones are most important and you can use that to make a decision.

Its a nightmare buying any phone these days with everything done online. I honestly wish that some reviews would actually test and use the devices a bit more rather than the same boring un boxing videos plastered up on YouTube and only a handful of them are actually technical. The ones that are any good are those who start to use the devices as a daily driver for a while.

Just got my phone, I'll test and report back after work. Still need to get a new sim though.
EDIT: so I've been playing around with the phone. I don't have a usb type c connector or a micro sim so theres only so much I've done with it so far but it is impressive. Also for some context, screen on max brightness, rgb logo on colour cycle, and 90hz refresh has used about 25% after 3hrs screen on time. That would have totally drained my old phone
also the wifi is fast on my 5ghz band, 9ms ping and maxed out dl and ul
I did the system update and it made the screen dimmer :/ hope I can fix that after rooting
If theres something specific you'd like to know about just ask
My camera is Not sharp. It looks Like autofocus doesnt work.

Clarity/resolution

The Samsung Galaxy A50 has a crazy crisp display. Just kidding, this is automated text so who knows if this screen is any good. So, you be the judge! A higher rating indicates that it's extremely sharp and clear, and that you cannot see pixels with your naked eye.

It has super amoled display
This same display galaxy flagship has been using
No other company out there have super amoled display
Even one plus offers amoled display
The display is undoubtedly best in this price range
PPI is 401 which is same as other mid range and some other flapship phone like one plus
So until if the phone has quadhd display this is better then any other display out there

A50 doesn't support 4k natively, but you can use any third party camera to record 4k video.
The best app i found was "Open camera ".
Exynos 9610 infact can do 4k @120fps, lets hope Samsung enables 4k rec in their native app in future for Galaxy A50.
Btw, you're in a wrong thread !
Anyone else noticed some unpleasant purple/green artifacts at places where dark meets bright? see attachments
I can totally see that from a normal phone usage distance. Not sure if it's a defect or a "feature".

I have not observed any of the color artifacts you describe on the white-black interface. The picture is absolutely perfect, the Samsung display really did. Try resetting your phone or making a claim.
Anyone else can comment on this thing? Maybe I'm just super sensitive to stuff like this.
Haven't noticed anything similar on my S6, maybe because of the insanely high ppi (577ppi on S6 vs 403ppi on A50)

Try to turn off Adaptive Display because it shifts color temperatures depending on the amount/type of light received by the sensors.

Hi everybody
Do you have the same issue like me: sometimes the rendering or images processing is too bad on my mi note 10...i mean it's like a little blur effect and poor quality
Not on images taken by the camera but images and pictures like wallpapers downloaded, images on internet sites, twitter, Facebook etc...
IS it a known issue or just my device

point: are you sure you're not running something like data saving in phone or browser? because to me seems compression to save datas as you said it's all relegated to thing downloadeds or anyway from a browser ( twitter, download images etc )
if not, try to hard reset before but if that the same thing you seen after the reset get it back and replaced.
