Huawei Honor 8 Lite 5.2 inch 4G Smartphone


Huawei Honor 8 Lite 5.2 inch 4G Smartphone (4GB32GB 12MP 3000mAh Kirin 655 Octa Core)

Honor 8 Lite specifications

The Honor 8 Lite sports a 5.2-inch display with a full-HD resolution, which makes for a high pixel density. Colour reproduction is neutral but there is an option to tweak the colour temperature. If you aren’t a fan of punchy colours, you’ll like the display. It has good viewing angles but isn’t very easy to read under direct sunlight.

Powering the Honor 8 Lite is Huawei’s own Kirin 655 SoC. It is an octa-core processor with two sets of four ARM Cortex-A53 cores. One set is clocked at 1.7GHz while the other is clocked higher at 2.1GHz. It has an integrated Mali-T830 GPU, as well as a co-processor called i5 which handles sensor input when the main cores are in standby, to save power. The Honor 8 Lite also has 4GB of RAM which in our opinion is more than enough to run all kinds of apps. There is dual-SIM connectivity and the device supports 4G and VoLTE. The hybrid dual-SIM design of the Honor 8 Lite means that you’ll need to choose between a second SIM and storage expansion. With 64GB of storage onboard, chances are that you won’t need more. In case you do, the phone accepts microSD cards of up to 128GB.
