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.

Honor 9 Lite Smartphone Review

Smarter. The Honor 9 Lite is not a bad buy at $290. Its SoC belongs to the upper mid-range and its other specifications are promising as well. In addition, the phone has four cameras to offer. Find out how the smartphone fares against its competition...

bright, high-contrast display ; slim design ; FM radio ; hybrid SIM ; fast LTE Cat. 13 ; expandable storage ; good selfie dual camera

Honor 9 Lite review: Leader of the affordable Android pack

As Huawei's budget brand, Honor handsets are well known for offering good value for money. With the Honor 9 Lite the 'good value' theme is raised a notch, thanks to an 18:9 aspect ratio 5.65-inch screen and no fewer than four cameras.

Compact, lightweight design ; Dual SIM ; Dual-lens cameras front and back ; 18:9 aspect ratio screen

Camera image quality could be better ; No fast charging ; No water resistance

HONOR 9X Lite Review — Simple Is Best?

In this HONOR 9X Lite review, we take a look at the latest offering from the company which comes with a big storage and a 48MP camera. Will it impress?

+ Simple yet attractive design ; + Ample storage provided ; + Good enough camera performance (in good lighting) ; + Notification LED ; + Affordable price

- Battery efficiency isn't the best ; - Still using microUSB ; - Notch (some may hate it) ; - Fingerprint magnet on the back ; - Speaker isn't satisfying enough

HONOR went back in time in terms of some of the specs but offers what some users want in an affordable device.

Honor 9 Lite hands-on review: complete package, competitive price

Not just one, but two dual cameras? Chic design with curved glass and great colors? Android 8.0 Oreo? Too expensive, you say? It doesn't have to be, because the new Honor 9 Lite costs less than $200. We got our hands on the latest lightweight iteration...

For the price, the Honor 9 Lite offers a convincing overall package, at least at first glance. The smartphone is not the fastest, but it has a chic design, comes with the latest Android version and two dual cameras. On the downside are the old...

Honor 9 Lite Review

There are very few smartphone makers who cater to all the three segments – Entry-level, Mid-range and High-end. One such company among them is the Huawei's online brand Honor. A couple of weeks before the launch of Honor 9 Lite, the company pulled the...

Good design ; Android 8.0 Oreo ; Light-weight body ; Quad-camera

Glass back is a fingerprint magnet and scratch-prone ; Hybrid Dual SIM ; No fast charging

Overall, the Honor 9 Lite is one of the best phones under Rs. 11,000 currently in the market. It has all the features one would expect in a mid-range smartphone and it works well too. At a starting price of Rs. 10,999, the Honor 9 Lite has a gorgeous...
