Honor is doing a fantastic job making people rethink about their brands of choice

[tapster]

I've had the honor view 20 for about 4 years and still is absolutely brilliant
Next phone will def be an honor phone

[heldercosta]

🥰 almost 4 years and it still works well and fits perfectly, I love Honor-Huawei.

Great video, I like mobile techies to review budget phones aswell as the flagships. That battery on that Honor is phenomenal.

I've had this phone for a few days now. It is absolutely amazing. After 24 hrs of normal use, on performance mode, I still had 52% battery left. The screen is superb with 120mhz refresh rate. It's extremely fast, 256gb internal memory and 8gb ram. I got mine for £229 at Argos, absolute bargain. One of the best phones I've ever had.

I have an Honor and charge my phone every two days, I think if you use your phone for calls, texts, social media and watching YouTube videos, etc you don't need an expensive flagship, I have a £7 pound a month sim free deal with my honor and I'm fine

I used HONOR holly for five years and now using HUWAWEI from 2019 and again looking forward to move to HONOR MAGIC 5...IT ticks all boxes of requirements

[hammerbear]

Getting a Magic 5 Lite tomorrow, got it for £199.99, I've got an Honor 9X from 2020 still going strong not a thing wrong with it !! Just can't update no more on this one ( stuck on Android 10 ) and no 5g that's it really ✅ Honor good quality.

When u paying for flagship you paying for the premium feel, and high resolution screen and maybe speakers ..day to day usage most people cant tell the difference between budget phone and flagship chipset performance ..the only time an average person will start to see a difference between a budget phone and flagship is at night photography...

Honor are not great with their software updates. Have the honor magic4 lite and still on android 11. While other companies and their devices are on android 12/13

[ELPCOTILLION-SD]

Priced At A Bit Over $500~Its Rather More A MidRange Device~Not Budget...That's A Bloody Understatement...

I have the Honor Magic5 lite and Redmi Note 13 pro. When it comes to the Display Brightness 🔅 Honor Magic5 lite is way better when set half way ...But at full brightness for display Note 13 pro slightly wins, but poorer when both devices are set the same level lower then full brightness 🔅 Honor Magic5 and 6 wins Vs Redmi Note 12 and 13 Pro

[newphonexp]

Android 13 has been out for over a year heck Android 14 has been released yet companies like honor have still not released it absolutely shocking especially when honor is releasing newer phones with android 13 no wonder customers turn to apple

[DrunkTomMemes]

Perhaps the major thing about honor phones is the display. I love the curves so freaking much. But the problem with Magic 5 lite is that sd695 wouldn't be able to handle 120Hz refresh rate. So I still recommend honor 70 at the similar price with sd778.

[Jerry-xpcw]

Only thing pretty much I dont like about Honor is their software, i feel like software design is pretty outdated, but thats just me. Good vid overall m8👍, keep up the good work!

[MarkoVuckovic]

I don't understand people that buy flagship phones. You pay $1000+ and they don't even give you a charger in the box. Literally every midrange android except a few Samsung phones have a charger in the box.

[Beammeupscotty-wx]

Based on your battery life and how surprised you were it's time to do a battery test against the s23 ultra iPhone 14 pro and maybe the one plus 11 .

[dronedays]

Bought one from argos yesterday £249 all seems good so far, bought it to use it at work to save risking breaking my iphone 14 pro and this does everything i do on the iphone anyway lol

[andreas]

I own this smartphone since 6 weeks and love it

[kakram]

Well said 👏 I feel like that when using a budget phone. I am currently using redmi 12 explorer and 200mp camera on it is really good. Honor 5 lite look cool.
