Similar design, same brain and improved cameras
At first glance, you might not see excessive aesthetic changes in the Honor Magic5 Lite compared to the Magic4 Lite, but there are. See what goes from a flat LCD screen to a 6.7-inch curved AMOLED which does not miss jerks with your price 120Hz. The rear camera module also changes so that, although it remains circular, the central part adopts the color of the terminal.
Also note the fact that the fingerprint reader becomes an optical sensor integrated into the screen. Position which, at least at first glance, seems much more comfortable than on the side button, where it was in the previous generation.
The brain is an old acquaintance of Qualcomm. This is the Snapdragon 695, a mid-range chip introduced a year and a half ago and which allows you to have 5G connectivity.
On battery, there is a slight jump when obtaining 5.100mAh of capacity (4,800 mAh had the Magic4 Lite). This, yes, has a slower charge than this previous model, given that it is limited to 40W wired, while the previous one reached a power of up to 66 W.
It also offers a 16-megapixel selfie camera which, at least on paper, looks identical. Yes, improvements are added to the rear with a main which increases to 64 megapixels. Likewise, the the wide angle reaches 5 megapixels and the bet for a lentil also comes back 2 megapixel macro.
Regarding software, it is expected to be one of the Honor mobiles that will receive MagicOS 7, a version of its layer based on Android 13. However, and according to what Honor itself reflects on its website, Comes with MagicOS 6.1version still based on Android 12.
