#PUNCH HOME DESIGN ARCHITECTURAL SERIES 4000 V10 REVIEW ANDROID#

Borrowed from other Huawei devices, its fingerprint sensor can be used for one-finger navigation in place of the standard Android navigation bar. The 3.5 mm headphone jack that gets ignored too often shows up here, as does USB-C charging. The rest of its design consists of some familiar, yet welcome elements. Naturally, this gives the View 10 a reassuring build quality, though the metal back can be quite a fingerprint magnet. The View 10 comes with an all-metal chassis too. The thin strips surrounding the screen are only as thick as they need to be in order to squeeze in its front-facing camera, ear speaker, and the ovular fingerprint sensor. Like many of 2017вЂ™s best phones, the Honor View 10 dismisses thick bezels from its design formula. Billed as вЂњyour first AI phoneвЂќ, the View 10 borrows many premium characteristics from the Huawei Mate 10, including its 18:9 aspect ratio, the Kirin 970 processor, an embedded NPU (neural processing unit, hence the AI smarts) and will come stocked with EMUI 8.0, the companyвЂ™s user interface running on Android Oreo. It somehow bottles up flagship specs and design into a more affordable shell. The Honor View 10 is one of HonorвЂ™s most expensive and good-looking phones yet. User can use this phone as a universal remote. This lets it mimic the signals sent by standard home entertainment/TV remotes, using the Honor Smart Controller app. However, on the top of the View 10 user will see an IR blaster. Honor doesn't offer any clever third-party music or video apps, leaving user to use Google's suite or one of own favorites. As is the headphone jack: don't undervalue it now it's an endangered species. Keeping pace with the middle-range crowd, this speaker is reasonably loud and has some extra mid-range presence, making podcasts and quick blasts of music more enjoyable. Back to the conventional stuff, the View 10 has a single mono speaker on its bottom. With games and all non-streamed media, the View 10's 128 GB of storage is also a massive benefit. The Huawei Honor View 10 is powered by 1.8 GHz octa-core Huawei HiSilicon Kirin 970 processor and it comes with 6 GB of RAM. However, for a while now EMUI has let user switch over to an interface view with a vertical apps menu, just like other Android phones. As standard it rips out the app drawer, making the system seem as though it's missing a limb. This too is at version 8.0, the same used by the Huawei Mate 10 and Mate 10 Pro. The Honor View 10 runs Android Oreo with the Huawei-made Emotion UI (EMUI) interface pasted on top. Honor talks up the use of 'AI' in the camera, but aside from sharpening text using the 2x zoom this boils down primarily to fast scene mode selection: nothing too exciting. One uses a 16 MP color sensor, the other a 20 MP black and white sensor. On the back of the View 10 sits a bug-eyed pair of camera lenses. However, the camera is actually one of the areas where user can get perceptibly better performance from one of the more expensive alternatives. The Honor View 10 has more megapixels combined than virtually any other phone user can currently buy: 49 of the things in total. Like other Honor phones, the View 10 also has a color temperature wheel that lets user make the screen appear warmer or cooler, or give it a slightly more specific color skew. Colors look great, the display is sharp despite having far fewer pixels than a Samsung Galaxy S8, there's barely any brightness loss from an angle, and contrast is excellent. The quality of the Honor View 10 minimizes their importance. This display is similar to that of the OnePlus 5T, except that it uses an LCD panel rather than an OLED one.

The Honor View 10 has a 5.99-inch IPS LCD screen, with a stretched-out Full HD resolution of 1080 x 2160. That being said, the metal back design is quite robust in a sense that once user look at it, they instantly know that it's a Honor smartphone. It looks naturally stylish, very fashionably trendy especially for the Red Crush model but we only got the black one as review unit. Flagship designs usually go for the premium look but not so much for the View 10, as it is targeted as the millennials or the younger generation. It's out to provide much of the hardware and features of the biggest names, but at a much lower price. It's hard not to love the core aim of the Honor View 10. The Honor View 10 smartphone was launched in November 2017. Honor View 10 Hands-on article by Jagadisa Rajarathnam
