HONOR has just introduced a mobile phone that bets on a huge battery. We are talking about the HONOR 90 Smart, a device that arrives to compete in the mid-range segment with an elegant design and the promise of offering battery life that is above average. Let’s see what it has to offer.
The HONOR 90 Smart is the brand’s new mobile phone. Its large battery is one of its main attractions, but so is its appearance. It is a device that does not go unnoticed. It maintains the straight edges that any trendy mobile phone has, without sacrificing an ergonomic finish given by slightly curved edges. Its triple camera setup also generates a lot of buzz, as it is contained within two circular photographic islands, which, in turn, are located within a rectangular frame with a reflective finish. Let’s take a look at the rest of its features.
The HONOR 90 Smart has everything it needs to be one of the most interesting mid-range value-for-money phones of the year. It was introduced with a huge 6.8-inch screen that leaves no one indifferent. This is a TFT LCD display with a FullHD+ resolution of 2412 x 1080 pixels, providing a 20:9 aspect ratio. Additionally, it features a 90 Hz refresh rate and has been certified by TÜV Rheinland, indicating low blue light emissions that can cause eye fatigue.
Under the hood of the HONOR 90 Smart, we find the MediaTek Dimensity 6020 chipset, a component built using a 7-nanometer process and featuring an octa-core configuration that operates at a maximum clock frequency of 2.2 GHz. This processor is paired with 128 GB of internal memory and 4 GB of RAM, which can be expanded up to 8 GB thanks to the support for 4 GB of virtual RAM.
The battery is one of the most prominent features of this mobile, as it is larger than usual. It has a capacity of 5,330 mAh and offers, at a minimum, one day of intense autonomy. With standard use, its autonomy can be extended up to two days on a single charge. According to HONOR, it can retain more than 80% of its health after three years of use.
The camera of the HONOR 90 Smart is also noteworthy. In this device, we find a main sensor of 108 megapixels with an f/1.75 aperture aimed at taking photos of exceptional quality. The other two sensors on its back are a macro and a bokeh, both 2 megapixels with an f/2.4 aperture. Then we have the front camera inside the hole-punch display, which is 8 megapixels with an f/2.0 aperture.
Other features of this device include a side-mounted fingerprint reader and facial recognition functionality. It also comes with 5G connectivity and the typical options of Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.1, NFC, GPS with A-GPS and GLONASS, USB Type-C port, and support for dual SIM, among others. Additionally, this mobile is equipped with a 3.5 mm headphone jack and two stereo speakers for an immersive audio experience at all times. It runs on Android 13 under MagicOS 7.2.
The HONOR 90 Smart is now available through the official HONOR website. The mobile was launched at a price of about 250 euros for the 4 GB RAM model with 128 GB of internal memory and is available in emerald green and midnight black colors.
