Honor 9 Lite Launched In India: Price, Specification And Review

Seldom we see a smartphone manufacturer bring flagship features to the mid-budget or entry-level segment and the last two companies we remember, who have been successful at this are, Xiaomi and OnePlus.

It seems that Huawei’s sub-brand Honor has decided to go all in with some of the best specifications that one could see on a smartphone and double it up with an attractive price tag to appeal the masses.

Now, with the Honor 9 Lite, Huawei is looking to challenge one these formidable players of the industry and in order to do that, this smartphone has been infused with quad cameras along with a more than decent hardware package to offer the best that there is and the best that we have seen.

Honor 9 Lite has been launched in India with stunning looks, Android Oreo out of the box and a dual camera setup on both sides of the handset. Moreover, there is an almost bezel-less display that offers 18:9 aspect ratio for the ultimate media consumption, making Honor 9 Lite a package that is hard to ignore.

But can the Honor 9 Lite better Xiaomi’s record of numbers of units sold and take the company to the top of the ladder in India? Let’s see.

Honor 9 Lite Price And Availability

That said, the 4GB/32GB variant of Honor 9 Lite didn’t make it to India but we expect it to be added to the lineup soon.

Honor 9 Lite Review

The stunning looks and dual-camera setups of Honor 9 Lite really stand out in the competition, which already has the likes of Xiaomi Mi A1, Moto X4, Moto G5S Plus along with Huawei’s own Honor 7X and Honor 9i.

While the plastic frame, standard battery life, average camera performance with regular photography, and slow charging are some of the definite drawbacks, Honor 9 Lite is still a worthy mid-range smartphone that offers decent software and specifications, along with a good screen for multimedia consumption.

Honor 9 Lite is an impressive device which hits almost all the right notes, and is definitely recommended to those who are looking for a premium smartphone with a great ability of portrait shots, but at an affordable price.
