Comment

Model: I don't know where to start. Another day, another device with "Lite" tag attached to it. But the term "Lite" seems to have a different usage here.

Back in the day, when we were talking about lite devices, we thought of a smaller version of a flagship. But now, to me, it seems like we no longer know exactly if the term used for size or hardware. This is the case for Honor View 10 Lite.

The Honor View 10 is already a good device with a strong hardware backed with a nice 18:9 screen, dual cameras etc. Now looking at the View 10 Lite, it becomes a bit interesting. First of all, instead of a Kirin 970 SoC, we get a Kirin 710 Soc, which is totally normal considering the Lite tag, right? Rest of the hardware? Pretty same, actually totally same. Unless you check out the cameras and screen.

Cameras. The big brother has dual 20 MP and 16 MP rear cameras, one for monochrome and another for RGB and a 13 MP front camera for selfies. The little brother has a minor difference here. You get 20 MP dual cameras and a 16 MP front camera for selfies. Now this doesn't sound like a "lite" feature. Then the screen. Here is the surprising part, while the View 10 comes with a 5.99-inch 18:9 screen, the supposedly lite version comes with a 6.5 inch 19.5:9 screen. What? How on earth can you call this a lite version? To answer this question, my only guess is that the View 10 Lite is for people who do not need high processing power and plan to use their devices only for media consumption. I can't think of any other explanation.

Don't get me wrong, both of the devices are great to use. I was just shocked to get a bigger device from the big brother and it to be called as "Lite". If you are already a Honor View 10 user and want to switch to a bigger screen, now you can! Of course camera quality will differ a bit as the camera usage is better on the big brother, but I am not sure if it will make a big difference on your Instagram photos.

Overall, I would recommend Honor View 10 Lite to anyone. First of all, it is not like any other "Lite"device on the market. A middle class SoC won't get you troubles for your day to day usage. On the other hand, I think it makes sense for media consumption. Bigger screen, bigger resolution translates into better views. Of course if you are okay with carrying a 6.5-inch device with you all times.

ARM Mali-G51 MP4: Integrated mid range graphics card with 4 clusters. Beware the results in the Mate 20 Lite, that detects benchmarks and boosts the performance.

Non demanding games should be playable with these graphics cards.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.

Kirin 710: ARM based octa-core SoC containing four Cortex-A73 cores for performance tasks (up to 2.2 GHz) and four Cortex-A53 cores (up to 1.7 GHz) to save power. Furthermore, the SoC integrates an LTE radio (600 MBps down) and a ARM Mali-G51MP4 GPU. The SoC is manufactured at TSMC in 12nm.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.

6.5":

Only a few smartphones have larger screens.
Large display-sizes allow higher resolutions. So, details like letters are bigger. On the other hand, the power consumption is lower with small screen diagonals and the devices are smaller, more lightweight and cheaper.

0.175 kg:

Only few smartphones are more lightweight than this.

Honor:

In 2014 Huawei created the sub brand Honor and offers certain smartphone series under this name. Occasionally the products are also called Huawei Honor.

The market share of Honor products is manageable, but there are several reviews on Honor smartphones with average ratings (as of 2016).

82.33%: This rating should be considered to be average. This is because the proportion of notebooks which have a higher rating is approximately equal to the proportion which have a lower rating.
