PROS

  1. Stunning 120Hz OLED Display: The 6.57-inch curved display is vibrant, sharp, and supports 1 billion colors for a great viewing experience.
  2. 66W Fast Charging: The 66W Honor SuperCharge technology charges the 4300mAh battery from 0 to 70% in just 20 minutes.
  3. Return of Google Mobile Services: Fully supports Google Play Store, Maps, and YouTube, marking a major comeback for the brand.
  4. Snappy Snapdragon 778G Processor: The 6nm chipset delivers excellent, smooth performance for daily tasks and gaming.
  5. Unique and Stylish Design: Features a premium glass-sandwich design with a distinctive, eye-catching "dual-ring" camera housing.
  6. Solid 108MP Main Camera: The high-resolution primary sensor captures detailed, high-quality images in good lighting.
  7. Excellent Selfie Camera: The 32MP front-facing camera produces sharp and detailed self-portraits.
  8. Slim and Lightweight: Weighs only 175g and is under 8mm thick, making it very comfortable to hold.
  9. Vlog-Friendly Video Modes: Offers unique multi-video recording features, allowing simultaneous front and back camera usage.
  10. Fast Under-Display Fingerprint Sensor: The biometric scanner is quick and reliable for securing the device.

CONS

  1. No Stereo Speakers: The phone relies on a single bottom-firing speaker, which is disappointing for multimedia consumption.
  2. Lack of IP Rating: The device has no official water or dust resistance rating, making it vulnerable to liquid damage.
  3. No Wireless Charging: Despite its premium feel, it lacks the convenience of wireless charging, a common feature in this price bracket.
  4. Poor Secondary Cameras: The 2MP macro and 2MP depth sensors add little value and produce mediocre results.
  5. No Headphone Jack: There is no 3.5mm audio jack, requiring USB-C or wireless headphones.
  6. No MicroSD Card Slot: Storage is not expandable, meaning you are stuck with the initial 128GB or 256GB choice.
  7. Aggressive Software Beautification: The camera app often applies heavy beauty filters and post-processing, leading to unnatural photos.
  8. No OIS on Main Camera: The lack of Optical Image Stabilization can lead to shaky video and blurry shots in low light.
  9. Bloated Magic UI: The user interface comes pre-installed with many unnecessary Honor apps that may feel restrictive.
  10. Slippery Build: The polished glass back makes the phone quite slippery, requiring the included case for better grip.
