Customer Review

I was slightly apprehensive about purchasing a phone from Honor having previously stuck to the likes of LG, Samsung, etc. but I was pleasantly surprised at the quality, the amazing battery life and the speed of the phone.
The phone runs Android with the addition of the Honor Magic user interface (UI) bringing branding to the phone plus extra shortcuts, screen savers, etc.
One of the thing you notice is there is no notch for the front facing camera so you get more screen space. The front camera uses a small hole on the top left and takes decent photos. On the back of the phone is the main camera and the fingerprint reader which is really responsive.
The rear camera is capable of taking 48 megapixel images and has taken some impressive photos, the only let down is the camera goes into 4:3 ratio on anything higher than 7 megapixel - that means no widescreen shots like you get on other phones. If you knock the resolution down to 7 megapixel you get a 19.2:9 ratio. If I had know this I would have looked at an alternative model.
Overall the phone is great to use and it is good to see a phone with a decent battery that can last more than 24hrs with moderate use.
