Honor ups games performance

It also touted the potential of the smartphone’s 3D Time of Flight (ToF) camera, which is said to “herald a new era of AR life”.

The update comes as Huawei’s youth-focused brand revealed that 1.5 million View20 devices have already been sold, following its launch in January 2019.

“We are moving one step closer to our goal of becoming a top five smartphone brand in three years,”

George Zhao, president of Honor, said, noting that in some markets it has already achieved this ambition.

Gaming+ improves gaming with a GPU efficiency upgrade, GPU load optimisation, high-definition and AI loading prediction technology. This is said to improve SOC energy efficiency by around 20 per cent.

The ToF 3D camera enables real-time depth sensing at 30 frames per second, skeletal recognition and real-time motion capture capabilities, enabling interactive functions such as 3D shaping, AI calorie counting, Magic AR and 3D motion-controlled gaming.

In future, Honor plans to partner with more third parties to create an “integrated 3D ToF ecosystem that opens up a new era for AR measure, social media and shopping”.

“I believe that ToF 3D is a future-oriented technology,” Zhao added.
