It’s official: two of Honor’s new flagships will be available in the coming weeks: its mid-range smartphone, the Honor 70, and the highly anticipated Pad 8 tablet.
Moreover, during an event that the brand organized in London, they confirmed that the cheapest range of Honor mobiles, with its Honor X8 model, will also be available.
And the truth is that we like to be able to dispose smart phones and devices that, without being mid-range, offer qualities as excellent as those of Honor. This does not mean that the brand only releases low-cost mobiles, in fact, as you can see in our ranking of the best Honor mobiles, in the lead we have the Honor Magic 4 Pro which costs more than $1,000.
However, if we return to the Honor 70, we are faced with a mobile that costs half and will be an excellent mobile for almost all consumers. Its Spandragon 778G Plus 5G processor and Sony’s 54MP IMX800 sensor in its camera are the reason. The cameras promise to be brilliant with a 50MP wide-angle sensor and a macro camera that will allow you to take super close shots with all sorts of detail.
The 120Hz OLED display also stands out, and you can choose the option of a much more striking model with a diamond-shaped reflective pattern that Honor has called Crystal Silver.
At first glance, the Honor 70, which starts at $549, seems like a strong contender against the best mid-range phones. Honor has completely divested itself from former parent company Huawei, so its phones can freely use Google Services and the Google Play Store (which is pretty important).
For that price you get 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, but there’s also an 8GB/256GB version if you need a bit more space. Both have a 4,800mAh battery with a 66W fast charger. The phone is will be able to reserve on August 26 and will go on sale on September 2. It is available in silver, green or black.
We have a guide with information on the sale and availability of the Honor 50, in case this model interests you.
It also reaches the European market Tablet Pad 8, which is a tablet with a 12-inch screen, not 8-inch (don’t get the name wrong). This screen is 2K resolution and the unit packs eight speakers with DTS:X Hi-Res Audio support, a very promising start considering it will only cost $XXX with 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. storage when it goes on sale August 26.
