The phone is expected to be priced at around Rs 40,000.

The View 20 was announced at Honor's Artology event in Hong Kong in December 2018.

The phone has a new full-view display experience, courtesy the Honor's "All-View Display". It comes with eight world's first technologies that include 1.4Gbps cat21. modem.

This is the world's first in-screen front camera design, which is achieved by a complex 18-layer technology stack that carefully embeds the front camera in the display area of the screen and extends the display area to almost 100 per cent, the company claimed during its unveiling in December.

The device also has Artificial Intelligence (AI) computing power and graphic processing power enabled by the dual-ISP and dual-NPU of Huawei's own Kirin 980 chipset.
