HUAWEI P20 Series Review: The revolution in mobile phone night shooting and zoom

According to plan, Huawei released the P20 series in Shanghai. The P20 Pro is the first mobile phone equipped with a rear-mounted three-camera. What can the three cameras do together? What are the characteristics of the new machine? Listen to us slowly.

Let's talk about the appearance. This time, Huawei has spent a lot of time on the appearance of the P20 series. The new color scheme it uses is quite bold. The mobile phone moves from purple to blue and green from bottom to top. According to Huawei, this kind of gradual change Some color taken from a rainbow.
In addition to attracting eye-catching gradients, the P20 series also has a new design on the back. The vertical dual camera, Leica logo, flash, and 'HUAWEI' Logo are printed in a row. Elements become the most powerful symbol of Huawei mobile phones.
In addition, the P20 Pro's rear-mounted three lenses, from top to bottom, are respectively an 8-megapixel telephoto lens, a 40-megapixel color lens, and a 20-megapixel black-and-white lens. With the addition of a telephoto lens, the P20 Pro has 3 Optical zoom and 5x mixed zoom function. In the actual measurement, its hybrid zoom is clearer than the same digital zoom, but the zoom will have more noise after dimming.
In the photo shoot, another P20 Pro 'big killer' is a 'super night shoot' feature. This feature extends the exposure of the phone, while ensuring that the photos taken are not ambiguous. The simple point is to make the night photo brighter. The details are kept even more. When you take a photo in this mode, the camera will have 4 seconds of composition time, which is a bit like shooting a small video. After 4 seconds, you will get a super night photo.
These two photos were shot using P20 Pro's Super Night Scene to enhance the screen brightness as much as possible while maintaining as much of the picture as possible, leaving more details. At the same time, the exposed areas of the picture itself will not be overexposed.
In addition to zoom and super night shooting, Huawei made adjustments to the AI ​​algorithm. Both P20 series phones support real-time AI recognition. After the camera automatically recognizes the camera scene, it will optimize accordingly. This AI can identify the scene. Increased to more than 500 kinds, and equipped with 19 optimization modes.
For example, when we use the P20 series phone to bring people with the camera, the camera will automatically identify the person taking the picture, and then automatically jump to portrait mode; if we take the sky, then the camera will automatically recognize the sky. The scene is optimized and the color is bluer.
P20 Pro proofs, the right one when shooting, the camera automatically recognizes the AI, the blue sky has been optimized to become extra blue.
The overall thickness of the P20 series is controlled within 8mm. Due to the design of the curved glass, it looks a bit thick, but it doesn't really feel in the hand, and the transition between the middle frame and the back glass is smooth. On the touch, This series gives a feeling of solid workmanship and compactness.
On the positive side, the P20 series uses Liu Haiping as a whole. Because it does not have a 3D lens set like the iPhone X, and Huawei optimized the front lens module for the handset, the P20 series 'Liu Hai' is much shorter than the iPhone X. And if you don't like this 'bangs' you can also fill it in the system settings.
Some people think that it looks good and some people think it is ugly. But from a visual sense point of view, it’s actually better than the traditional screen, or even the kind of “full screen” that stays on and off. Of course, one hundred people have A Hamlet, we will not discuss it in detail.
The P20 series retains frontal fingerprinting. The reason why the frontal fingerprinting scheme is adopted is because no one other than Apple can remove the chin of the mobile phone screen. Therefore, instead of letting the chin empty, it is better to narrow the fingerprint identification. This is Huawei. Selection on P series.
The difference between the P20 and the P20 Pro is that the P20 has only two lenses, one is a 20-megapixel black-and-white lens, and the other is a 12-megapixel color lens. The P20 scores second with a score of 102 points on the DxOMark photo leaderboard, P20. Pro ranked first with a score of 109. In addition, the P20's screen size was also reduced from 6.1 inches to 5.8 inches for the P20 Pro.
The P20 phone we got was a cherry pink gold color. If you look closely, the color is also a little gradual. The top is pink, the lighter the lower the color. In addition to the cherry pink gold and aurora, the P20 series also has a bright black and Sapphire blue color optional.
Both phones carry Kirin 970 processors. In terms of storage, the P20 uses 4GB of memory and is equipped with a 3400 mAh capacity battery. The P20 Pro uses 6GB of memory and a 4000 mAh battery. Summarizes the two phones. Differences: Compared with P20 Pro, P20 has various changes in screen size, camera specifications, running memory and battery capacity.
In general, the P20 series had a major breakthrough in photographing, especially the night shooting part, which was a solution to the problem of a mobile night shot. The appearance of new colors also made this series of mobile phones more attractive. In any case, this time Huawei made a very satisfactory answer in both 'fashion' and 'technical'.
