Huawei Honor is the
current flagship for this Chinese ICT giant. The device may be a Chinese native
but this monster phone is genuinely engineered and developed. Huawei Honor is a
modest 4-inch power house but is fast running in a 1.4 GHz SnapDragon S2 and
Adreno 205 graphics.
This device may not
be the lightest chunk around but it does promise a lighter feel with 140g and a
manageable 122 x 61 x 11 mm dimensions. You have to be skeptical when you see
the cheap-ish finish this Android device but you may want to give yourselves
the benefit of the doubt on how it would perform software-wise.
Huawei team promised
the Honor users for an ICS update since it comes out with Android 2.3.5
(Gingerbread) out of the box. It also packs HDR2 8MP rear-camera and 0.3MP secondary
shooter for video calling. Its speed is adequate enough for its single-core
CPU. You may want to question why Huawei only had a single-core for it’s
flagship, the answer is all about price and performance.
So, the mere fact
that this device is only priced Php 13,990 would cure your apprehensive thoughts.
Aside from that, it also gives you orgasmic juices with its power-pack battery
performance. According to the Huawei team, it promises up to three days on
normal use, 3 weeks on stand-by, 9 hours’ worth of talk time, 8 hours of web
surfing and 6 hours’ worth of non-stop gaming with its 1900mAh battery. The
performance is way better than any other flagship royalties.
Huawei Honor is a
heavily customized android phone which can do a 5-second boot up. It’s because
of the pre-installed quick boot-up feature. It also offers a whooping 160 GB
storage via Huawei’s Cloud + drive, all you need is to register for an account
which takes about a minute and you’re good to go. Check out the rest of the
