The mid-range and Honor entry are updated with two new phones. The Chinese brand introduced the Honor 9C and 9S in Russia, two models added to the well-known Honor 9A, which was officially launched last March. They are two noteworthy phones in this case, since one comes with a modern design and several cameras and the other is presented as the most basic of its kind.
The Honor 9C is an example with design with a well-made screen and three rear cameras, which reminds us of the 9A above. On the other hand we get the Honor 9S, a design phone that we already see a lot of detail and modesty, but at a much lower price.
New Honor 9A: very cheap, with a very large battery
The Honor 9A is a brand new cheap phone, far superior to its all-electric battery that promises great independence.
Two very distinguishing phones
The Honor 9C is available more mid-range, although it is kept very low. The embroidered screen has a modern look, so the product type did well in this case. In addition, it comes with a fingerprint sensor, which is available as standard on the rear models.
This phone shows its cameras, with a triple rear camera, with a 48 Mpx core sensor, 8 Mpx wide angle and 2 Mpx depth sensors. Previously, an 8 Mpx camera was used. The phone's battery weighs 4,000 mAh, and it is worth noting the NFC's presence on the phone, for mobile payments.
On the other hand we get the Honor 9S, which turns out to be the cheapest phone in the brand. This is a noticeable feature of its construction, with ancient borders and small screen (just 5.45 inches). Overall, it also leaves us with modest specifications, using the Helio P22 processor internally, and a 3,020 mAh battery capacity.
The phone comes with an 8 Mpx rear camera and a 5 Mpx front camera, which is modest in this category. As always in this market segment, It has no fingerprint sensor or integrated NFC. So we see that the most modest kind of product.
New Honor 30S: the first cheap 5G mobile phone from Honor
The Honor 30S is a new mid-range phone from Honor, which should be the first to use the Kirin 820 5G and thus bring 5G to the mid-range.
