Price: £199 from fave.co/3F5UA0i
Although not everyone will have heard of Honor, it is a very good brand that knows how to design and manufacture high quality mobile devices. The Honor Magic family offers higher-end smartphones. However, if you want a more affordable model, you need to look at the Honor 90 range, the latest family of phones introduced by the company.
We were already able to test the big brother of this family, the Honor 90, which despite its excellent screen, didn't get our five stars, but it did get a very decent score. Now, we test the Honor 90 Lite, the cheaper version of the family, which cuts back on specs to offer you a competent price of £199. But is the Honor 90 Lite worth it?
I've been testing it for weeks to answer that very question.
DESIGN
If you're the kind of person who focuses on phone aesthetics, I'd venture to say that the 90 Lite is a good-looking phone. And yes, I know that may be too simple a description, but what I mean is that it meets the standard of aesthetics we might expect in a phone in 2023. Rounded edges, metal sides and a matt back, where the protruding cameras stand out in two circular shapes that criss-cross each other.
If I had to find a downside, its that the back cover is not made of the more premium materials we see on high-end phones. The phone is made of glass materials, but the back cover feels a little more plastic than we'd like, which is not to say it's ugly. Besides, you're likely to use a case that covers the cover, so does it really matter? And, on a positive note, your fingerprints don't smudge as easily on this kind of finish, which is something I'm
