HONOR 20 Pro to feature side-mounted fingerprint scanner

Unlike most recent flagships, HONOR is expected to buck the trend of under-display fingerprint scanners, and instead opt for a side-mounted fingerprint scanner on the HONOR 20 Pro. This revelation comes as a Facebook user leaks out a device which is allegedly the HONOR 20 Pro in its entirety.

The images also show that the HONOR 20 Pro will lack a 3.5mm jack, but that comes as no surprise as HUAWEI has also traditionally dropped the 3.5mm jack from the β€œPro” variant of their flagships. Hopefully the HONOR 20 will come with one, but don’t keep your hopes up too high.

The HONOR 20 Pro will also sport a punch hole, similar to the HONOR View20 that came before it. With the new side-mounted fingerprint scanner, the HONOR 20 Pro might also tout an IPS display like the HONOR View20.
