A low price, but certainly not at the expense of the photo
Honor is recognized for the excellent equipment-price ratio of its smartphones and its new Honor 200 Lite is no exception to the rule. Priced at only 329.90 euros upon release, this model is a true champion when it comes to selfies.
While most manufacturers focus primarily on the rear camera, Honor has decided for its latest addition to focus on the front. Its objective: to allow everyone, including those on the smallest budgets, to take high-quality selfies, that is to say realistic, bright and above all very sharp.
To do this, Honor is relying on a 50 megapixel front sensor, a rare definition even on the most premium smartphones of 2024, as well as on a high-precision focusing system. Everything is supported by advanced image processing responsible for bringing more depth to portraits, and in particular minimizing facial distortion. The proportions of the face are then perfectly respected and the result is as natural as possible.
The brand is therefore getting a little closer to the real needs of users, accustomed to using the front sensor to take self-portraits and group photos. That’s without counting all the professional and amateur content creators, for whom the quality of the front camera is not an option.
However, Honor has not neglected the rear configuration and has equipped its latest addition with a 108-megapixel main sensor, a second 5-megapixel sensor for ultra-wide-angle shots, as well as a last one of 2 megapixels for macro.
A lightweight design
Honor has not only taken care of the photo part of its new smartphone, quite the contrary. Already, the Honor 200 Lite has a premium feel as it is thin (6.78 mm thick), light (166 grams) and robust. Its colorStarry Blue» all in shades of blue, available exclusively on the manufacturer’s online store, is also very beautiful.
In use, everything comes together to provide the user with the greatest possible comfort. The Honor 200 Lite benefits from a bright 6.7-inch FHD+ and 90 Hz AMOLED panel. The promise: even in the summer sun, you can see your smartphone clearly. This is very practical for immediately checking how your photos look and avoiding possible disappointments once you get home. So many advantages to which is added a reduced level of flicker. So no more eye fatigue after long hours of use.
In terms of performance, the technical sheet of the Honor 200 Lite is solid considering its price. With its expandable RAM from 8 to 16 GB, a MediaTek Dimensity 6080 chip and a nice storage space of 256 GB of base, there is plenty to do, whether to record all your photos and videos without any problem, but also launch the most common mobile games.
