ISSUE 62 • ANDROID ADVISOR 59REVIEWone and the EMUI software which runs on top of
Android 9 on the 20 Lite is also exactly the same as
you’ll find on Huawei’s phones.
This means there isn’t a huge amount to say if
you’re already familiar with EMUI. We’re no longer its
biggest fans: it’s still good for anyone coming from
an iPhone but it could really do with a refresh or – in
an ideal world – removing altogether. Stock Android
is so much better.
You get a few extra features, including Ultra
Snapshot which takes a photo as fast as possible
when you double-press the power button when the
phone is off. Some apps support split screen, and
you can duplicate a select group of apps, including
Facebook, so you can be logged into two different
accounts at the same time.
Verdict
With the Honor 10 Lite now costing as little as £169,
you’re paying £80 more for the 20 lite. And it could
well be worth it if those cameras are important to
you. But in most other respects, they are very similar
phones with similar specs. Really, only a slight change
in design and upgraded cameras differentiate the two.
Both are good choices, however, and among the best
at their respective prices. Jim Martin
