70 Smartphone, Mobile Phone 5G, SIM Free Unlocked, 8+256GB, 54 MP Triple Rear Camera, 120Hz 6.67 Inch OLED Curved Screen, Android 12, 4800mAh Midnight Black

I purchased this phone after doing research into phones under £300. My previous phone was a Huawei and this was an easy transition to make, with the advantage that it still supports Google apps and products. From the box, set up was straightforward, and the phone offered few operational differences to my previous phone. What was noticeable was an improvement in terms of feel, the body and glass feel high quality. Screen quality is an upgrade too, I noticed the brightness and resolution upgrades quickly. Websites and photographs look sharp and clear. The first weaker element came when playing video. Visually it was fine, the only speaker on the phone is adequate but by no means exceptional. However, at this price point it is not a big issue and I believe the sound via headphones is good. I haven't tried this to be able to confirm however. I like the camera on this phone. It takes good quality photos, particularly in daylight conditions. Night photos are pretty good too, however the noise in the images is obvious if you need to crop them afterwards beyond minor tweaks. Videos look good on the phone, at the time of writing I haven't watched them on a different screen. Minor drawbacks I've found... The phone does get quite warm after longer sleeps using it. Not dramatic, but certainly noticeable. The battery life is good, however without heavy media usage it easily lasts the whole day without a charge. For the price, I'd be impressed if you can find better.

Excellent little phone! If you have had an iPhone and are transitioning to an android this phone is right up your street! The layout, icon placement and gestures all mimic an iPhone. (Can be changed in the settings for the original android 13 if wanted too, with normal buttons and layout). It's pretty quick, very responsive and the camera on this phone is fantastic. Anyone that does a spot of photography or vlogging this phone will do just that! (Obviously bear in mind the camera is no SLR). I used the clone phone feature and put everything from my old phone across onto this one effortlessly. You get a charge lead in the box but no charging plug/brick. Not really a worry considering it's applicable with other chargers around the house. Other than that be prepared for this phone's finish. It's very premium and looks and feels great. Very smooth glass. However the one downside I found! 100% buy yourself a case and screen protector alongside your purchase. The oils in your fingers and hand make the phone just slip right out of your grip and would be very easy to drop. I got a screen protector and a wallet style case which worked fine. Other than that, if this phone broke or I lost it, I'd straight away buy the same phone as a replacement. It's features and specs are top notch for the price. No need to sign up for a two year contract to buy into a "brand" name with half the features and specs. The HONOR brand nailed it out the box with this one. Deffinately consider this for a next phone!

I've had Honor phones before, but decided to try an iPhone for a while (which I did like). However, I'm glad to be back with Honor. Screen size is great, clear display and superb colours. Haven't fully tested the camera yet, just a few pics, but I'm looking forward to taking out for a proper session soon. If the amazing amount of camera set-up choices are anything to go by, this should be good. Battery lasts an easy two days. Two minor gripes, which stopped me giving an overall five star rating - the music player is a bit 'tinny' when not using ear buds and why no charger, lead only? Considering I could buy five of these for the price of one iPhone, absolute bargain! Highly recommended.

I bought the HONOR 90 Lite to replace my 5.5 year old Honor 9 Lite which was starting to show signs of age. Previous to this, I was stuck in the extortion Apple bubble. Thanks to the availability of so many affordable, reliable, and high quality android brands, I decided to make the brave transition and have never looked back with any regret. Having used this Honor 90 Lite for a month, I am very pleased with the upgrade and hugely impressed by the quality / features / price ratio. The vastly improved specifications is a huge leap forward compare to the 9 Lite with only 3gb RAM, 32gb Storage, a 3000mah battery, and a 13 MP main camera. Thanks to the the main stars which are the generous 8gb RAM and the whopping 256gb storage, this phone is extremely snappy and a pleasure to operate. The 100MP main camera takes brilliant photos, while the larger screen and the ultra thin bezel deliver a much improved visual experience. With the unique Honor app DEVICE CLONE, I was able to transfer all datas ( including all my downloaded APPS) from the old HONOR to the new HONOR effortlessly using a C to C cable ( an adaptor is needed on the old phone as it is a micro USB). The only APP that I had to apply more work is WHATSAPP, as I wanted all my contacts and chat history to be transferred as well. There are some drawbacks including lack of 3.5 jack, no internal memory card slot, lower screen brightness, and the screen is LCD and not AMOLED. However, I can accept the minor compromise as I don’t feel like paying £100 more for these features found in the Redmi Note 13 5G with similar camera size, memory and storage capacity. As technology changes so rapidly theses days, the relatively affordable price of this reliable Chinese phone means that I can upgrade to newer technology more often without feeling guilty.

Update (July 2025): I've had this phone for over 2 years and I'm still so happy with it. Software updates have been useful and have improved the functionality of the phone. The camera quality is still top tier (my friends just get me to send them my photos and videos) and with extras like multi video and capturing whilst videoing, you're good. I commented on wanting expanding storage but there isn't a need. I have the 512gb model and there's still over 100gb of free storage space. Phone cases are still hard to come by but there are more available. Battery life has started to wane but this is expected after 2 years. With average use, you can just about get through the day before you need to recharge 👍 I'm anti-Apple and pro-Android so I can't comment on a comparison between the two. I've owned Honor, Huawei and OnePlus phones and I've always been pleased with the devices and how they are a fraction of the cost of the big names on the market. Camera quality is really important to me and this phone impresses me beyond my expectations. Generally the phone functions are smooth and intuitive. It's really light and fits nicely in the hand. You get a full day's battery off a full charge and the super fast charging is a treat! Ways it could be better: 1) the ability to increase storage (50gb is taken up by apps before you've even started with music and pictures) 2) I've not found a way to capture a still whilst videoing 3) I'd like some gesture features 4) there are limited accessories (phone cases) for this model so I'm making do with the clear one that comes in the box I really really like this phone and would recommend anyone getting it

The phone is a nice and simple phone to get used to difficult to find a different cover if you want to but I'm an 61 year old man who doesn't like change and it's good for me and I will like to add that the battery lasts a while.

Bought it after hours and days of research. I really wanted the Pro version, but saw mainly the refurbished version. Besides, this was on special offer and I love a bargain. Know the saying, "Buy cheap, pay twice."? Well, that's about to be my story. Apart from the minor issues with delivery, I couldn't get the data to transfer from my old mobile to the Reno wirelssly or with cables. It would start and stop halfway with cables. Wirelessly, I could not get it to transfer so I went to nearby phone shops, offering £50. I eventually found one who accepted £20, got my Pin to perform the transfer and swiped my SIM, so got it blocked and got a replacement within two hours of realising I'd been handed my phone without my SIM. Then checked progress of the transfers. Viber concluded fairly quickly, but WhatsApp is still "restoring" and transferring 4 days on! The pre-installed YouTube app worked for a day and then stopped working. Didn't realise that was a thing! The icons and other functions are pretty pants. Only thing it has going for it is the picture and video quality. Apart from that, I'm not so sure. Ready to return and buy a Huawei or give Samsung (I got an entry level "A" version that's a sorry piece of kit) another chance. It has no earphone jack, so your only option is battery - draining wireless / Bluetooth head or earphones. Would not recommend this smartphone. My rant over. I have a lot to get on with. Update I discovered you can buy USB C adapters so normal 3.5mm jacks can be used. I also purchased USB C earphones. Gave to a tech savvy family member.

Value for money. 5 stars. Easy to setup
