Build and design

The smartphone follows the current trend, a tall screen with narrow bezels. It sports a large 5.99-inch screen with the 18:9 aspect ratio. On the top and bottom, the borders are thick compared to thin bezels on both sides. On the top, it has selfie camera and earpiece grill, along with an array of sensors. And the fingerprint scanner is placed at the bottom.

Honor View 10 is backed by a 3750 mAh battery that can stay with you for more than a day with moderate usage. In our video loop test, it managed to play video over YouTube for about 11 hours and 20 minutes. In case of low battery, you can lower the resolution to HD+ to save energy. Also, the ultra-saving mode is also there in case your battery is draining fast and you still need to juice.

It captures landscapes with accurate colors but lacks in details of distant objects. However, you get ample amount of detail with macro and other shots. You can record 4K videos with the primary camera and shoot at 1080p at 60fps.

The front 13 MP camera is fairly perfect for selfies and groufies in most of the lighting conditions. You would love the portrait mode, where the only subject would be in focus and the background goes blur.

Performance

Combining the Octa-Core processor and 6 GB of RAM with Mali-G72 MP12 GPU, the View 10 is capable to handle various apps easily. We used the phone for more than 3 weeks and loaded it with several apps. It runs smoothly without any visible performance lag. Also, we added several high graphics intensive games. It handled them perfectly, even when we played Asphalt 8 and Fifa simultaneously, along with other apps including WhatsApp, Facebook, etc. we switched between apps but there was no lag.
