Honor 9 Lite review: still a budget winner? Trusted Reviews

The Honor 9's stripped-back sibling offers plenty but does it still make the grade?

All-screen design for less than £200 ; Crisp 5.65-inch 18:9 display ; Camera reasonably proficient

EMUI doesn’t show Android at its best ; Glass back questionable design decision ; Second camera only partially successful

The Honor 9 Lite’s bezel-light design and twin-lens camera tricks are eye catching, but it’s perhaps too quirky to fully take on the Motorola G-series at the top of the table. A good affordable phone, but the Motorola is better.

Honor 9 Lite review

A stylish phone at a great price

Premium design ; Excellent 18:9 screen ; Latest version of Android

EMUI is heavy ; Glass back is a fingerprint magnet ; Poor low-light camera performance

Honor has become accomplished at churning out excellent-value smartphones, and the Honor 9 Lite is no exception. It's not perfect, but with a decent quad-camera setup and a very handsome design, it delivers exceptional bang for your buck.

Honor 9 Lite review: Setting a high bar for budget phones

In many ways the Honor 9 Lite sets a new standard for sub-£200 phones. Its striking looks are well beyond its asking price, delivering a degree of

Superb design that looks well beyond its asking price ; High-res 18:9 screen ; Well-placed fingerprint scanner for rapid login ; 3.5mm headphone jack ; Quad camera fun

Light on battery life ; Some low-end graphics in gaming ; Touchscreen sometimes lacks responsiveness ; Micro-USB so no fast-charging ; So-so camera performance

In many ways the Honor 9 Lite sets a new standard for sub-£200 phones. Its striking looks are well beyond its asking price, delivering a degree of flagship quality. However, there are quirks that hold it back from perfection, while the headline quad...

Honor 9 Lite review

After a budget blower? The Honor 9 Lite might be the sub-£200 smartphone to slide into your pocket

Tempting price ; Expensive-looking design ; 18:9 aspect screen

Performance compromise with high-end games ; Speaker can sound harsh

Cutting-edge design at a price that won’t shred your wallet. Even with its average gaming performance, this is an excellent budget phone

Honor 9 Lite Review: Another brilliant budget blower?

The Honor 9 Lite is another great value Honor smartphone, although we're wondering if the company needs to launch quite so many handsets. Here's our in-depth Honor 9 Lite review, so you know how this blower compares with its siblings and rivals.

Smart design ; Strong battery life ; Media friendly

Deja-vu ; Dual selfie cameras make little impact

The Honor 9 Lite is a solid budget smartphone, offering full functionality for media lovers who want a big-screen experience on the move. Of course, there’s not much to differentiate it from other recent affordable Honor and Huawei smartphones. That...

Huawei's Honor 9 wants to take out the OnePlus 5

A portrait mode for selfies gives the midprice Honor 9 a little something extra.

Four cameras and a glass body from the budget Huawei Honor 9 Lite

It's not too pricey, either. This phone has the makings of a good deal.
