After the launch of the Honor V30 series ended yesterday, President Zhao Ming of Honor talked about DxOMARK camera ratings in an interview with the media. According to Zhao, the Honor V-series devices may not participate in DxOMARK scoring anymore due to the standards that camera rating site sets for devices.
Zhao goes on to state that many of the metrics that DxOMARK use for scoring are purely hardware-based, and as the hardware specifications get higher, so too will the scores. Because of this, cameras like the Honor V30’s that don’t push the boundary in terms of pure hardware doesn’t sit well with DxOMARK’s scoring system.
While this does seem a bit dismissive and one could poke many holes in the argument, it does make some sense. The Honor V30 and V30 Pro cameras don’t really wow in terms of pure specs, but rather with all the optimizations and features that have been added. Whether the cameras live up to actual standards remains to be seen though.
