The official presentation for China is scheduled on December 26 in China, while the global event will take place on January 22 in Paris.<\/p>\n<p>Honor View 20 will feature a 48 MP camera and Sony IMX586 sensor. Its screen will have a 4.5 mm cutout for the camera, and Huawei confirmed the screen will now be called Full-View Display 3.0. The chipset Kirin 980 with its dual-NPU has the capability to operate in a 48MP AI HDR mode that can match single-lens reflex cameras.<\/p>\n<p>The Huawei sub-brand also introduced a breakthrough technology, Link Turbo. It merges Wi-Fi + 4G networks to avoid choking over poor public networks. The feature is AI powered. This artificial intellect compares the networks\u2019 speed: if one of them is slow, it simultaneously connects to the other. However, many experts warn that AI processes data slower than a simple non-smart software.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_10400\" style=\"width: 660px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10400\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10400\" src=\"https:\/\/igotoffer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/pinhole-camera-phones-huawei-honor-view-20.jpg\" alt=\"Huawei Honor View 20: meet the world's first in-screen camera smartphone.\" width=\"650\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/igotoffer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/pinhole-camera-phones-huawei-honor-view-20.jpg 650w, https:\/\/igotoffer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/pinhole-camera-phones-huawei-honor-view-20-300x185.jpg 300w, https:\/\/igotoffer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/pinhole-camera-phones-huawei-honor-view-20-620x382.jpg 620w, https:\/\/igotoffer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/pinhole-camera-phones-huawei-honor-view-20-244x150.jpg 244w, https:\/\/igotoffer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/pinhole-camera-phones-huawei-honor-view-20-600x369.jpg 600w, https:\/\/igotoffer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/pinhole-camera-phones-huawei-honor-view-20-244x150@2x.jpg 488w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-10400\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Huawei Honor View 20: meet the world&#8217;s first in-screen camera smartphone.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>As for the camera, Honor View 20 is the only modern flagship with the sole camera, and engineers did their best to pack it. A Sony IMX586 CMOS is on a massive 1\/2-inch sensor (0.8 \u00b5m\/pixel) and features the Quad Bayer color array, stacking adjacent 2&#215;2 pixels in the same color. The photos appear sharper and less \u201cnoisy,\u201d even in challenging low-light scenes. The company promises that View 20 will shoot low-noise 12MP pictures in low-light.<\/p>\n<p>Any other specs of the new Huawei Honor camera phone, including those of an in-screen camera, are still kept under wraps.<\/p>\n<p>Samsung is following its immediate competitor in Asia with its Samsung Galaxy A8s. The Galaxy A lineup includes mid-class smartphones, which sometimes feature a new but questionable technology.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_10399\" style=\"width: 660px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10399\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-10399\" src=\"https:\/\/igotoffer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/pinhole-camera-phones-samsung-galaxy-a8s.jpg\" alt=\"Samsung Galaxy A8s gets a new Infinity-O display, with an in-screen front camera in the same upper left corner.\" width=\"650\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/igotoffer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/pinhole-camera-phones-samsung-galaxy-a8s.jpg 650w, https:\/\/igotoffer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/pinhole-camera-phones-samsung-galaxy-a8s-300x185.jpg 300w, https:\/\/igotoffer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/pinhole-camera-phones-samsung-galaxy-a8s-620x382.jpg 620w, https:\/\/igotoffer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/pinhole-camera-phones-samsung-galaxy-a8s-244x150.jpg 244w, https:\/\/igotoffer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/pinhole-camera-phones-samsung-galaxy-a8s-600x369.jpg 600w, https:\/\/igotoffer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/pinhole-camera-phones-samsung-galaxy-a8s-244x150@2x.jpg 488w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-10399\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Samsung Galaxy A8s gets a new Infinity-O display, with an in-screen front camera in the same upper left corner.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Samsung Galaxy A8s gets a new Infinity-O display, with an in-screen front camera in the same upper left corner. Outside of a pinholed 6.4-inch (2340 x 1080 pixel) display, the phone is a standard device. A Snapdragon 710 comes with either 6GB or 8GB of RAM, and 128GB of onboard storage with up to 512GB of expansion via microSD. Samsung Galaxy A8s shares the same triple-camera array as the Galaxy A7 on the back, while the front selfie camera contained within the cutout features a 24 MP sensor.<\/p>\n<p>The third phone to join the set of the pinholed devices is Huawei\u2019s Nova 4 flagship, on December 17th. The design with a dot instead of a notch is curious enough, but also brings up an issue of fragility: Will a pinholed display survive a drop or a scratch? Will a drilled-through OLED matrix suffer the same stress as an untouched one? We\u2019ll see in 2019.<\/p>\n<h2>Links<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.samsung.com\/us\/smartphones\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Explore our Best Galaxy Smartphones<\/a> &#8211; Samsung US<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/consumer.huawei.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HUAWEI Smartphones<\/a> &#8211; HUAWEI Global<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/igotoffer.com\/blog\/flexible-phone-samsung\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Flexible Phone: Samsung Presents Infinity Flex Display<\/a> &#8211; iGotOffer<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/igotoffer.com\/sell-cell-phone\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Trade in used cell phone<\/a> you don&#8217;t need anymore for top price online &#8211; iGotOffer<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Samsung Galaxy A8S &#8211; INFINITY O is HERE!!!
