Although we still tend to mentally associate Honor and Huawei, the former have been a completely independent brand for months and are beginning to frequent Western markets more frequently. Already without restrictions in terms of access to hardware and software, ie. And the novelty that they presented to us at the IFA in Berlin has a name and a first name. We salute the new Honor 70.
The phone wants to continue with the previous saga of the oriental firm and for this it bets on an OLED display with curved sides, something less common than it seems, and a Snapdragon processor that places it on the border between the medium and the high end

Powerful, elegant and equipped with versatile photographic equipment
The Asian manufacturer’s new Honor 70 arrives at IFA and does so with a screen OLED with curved sides and 6.62 inches diagonally. The screen, which hides the fingerprint reader behind it, has a FullHD+ resolution of 2,400 x 1,080 pixels and refreshes at 120 Hz. In addition, the panel is compatible with HDR10+ content.
For the processor, Honor opts for the Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G+ which comes with a single version of RAM, 8GB, and two internal storages, 128GB and 256GB. No microSD trays here, by the way. In the battery we have an internal battery of 4800 mAh with fast charging, up to 66 W, which gives it a great charging speed.
We come to photography and here we find 54 megapixels for the main camera
We end by talking about the connectivity of a phone that offers 5G, WiFi 6, Bluetooth 5.2GPS, NFC and USB type C, which embeds Android 12 hidden behind Magic UI 6.1 and weighs 178 grams.
