Honor 8 Review

  • Good
  • Excellent display
  • Striking aesthetics
  • Powerful performance
  • Very good cameras
  • Good software features
  • Bad
  • No FM radio
  • Single SIM functionality

Honor has had some pretty interesting budget offerings in the past but none of them have stood out quite like last year’s Honor 7 (Review). It was a well-crafted phone with good performance across the board, except in the battery department.

Honor 8 Summary

The Honor 8 is the successor to the Honor 7 and boasts of dual 12-megapixel camera sensors at the back. The design and build quality have improved, with curved glass on the front and back of the phone. The Honor 8 is powered by an octa-core Kirin 950 SoC, 4GB of RAM and 32GB of storage. It runs on Android 6.0 Marshmallow with a custom skin called EMUI. There are plenty of gesture-based shortcuts. The fingerprint sensor works well and also doubles as a button which lets you launch apps and features. This is a single SIM smartphone with support for 4G and up to 128GB of expandable storage. At Rs. 29,999, the Honor 8 offers very good all-round performance.
