Honor 4C hands-on: one hell of good offer for a 7K flagship

Honor 4C is a budget flagship from Huawei with very nice specs and good looking design for the sub PHP 7K price tag. In the time where we can find flagship smartphones everywhere but not all will perform well after a while, we want to give you a closer look in to the devices we think can be good deal for their money. And let’s start with this Honor 4C.

Huawei Honor 4C is available in Philippines for less than 7K

The first impression every user can have from a smartphone is its design. To be very fair, Honor 4C does not look really special compared to others mid-range handsets. It has quite a thick body and looks a bit bulky regards of its real size. However, the Honor 4C feels safe and stable in the hand, which makes it worth considered.

With 5” and 720 IPS display, the Honor 4C screen resolution is quite good for its price range. Real experience shows that the colors displayed on the screen is mild and pretty, which goes well with public demand.

In terms of specs, Honor 4C features octa-core with Kirin 620 processor from Hisilicon – the baby company of Huawei – specialized in producing chip sets for smartphone producers. Although Hisilicon is not as well known as MediaTek that many other budget flagships packs, the processor works quite well under the speed of 1.2GHZ and 64 bit bases.

With dual SIM 3G, 2GB of RAM and 8GB  internal storage (SD card slot supported also), hands-on testing shows that the Honor 4C runs quite smoothly. The device is powered by 2,550mAH. This is far away from 4000 mAH in flagships like Lenovo K80 but is above average for a sub PHP 7k smartphone.

Huawei Honor 4C cameras are pretty nice too. The rear camera features 13MP with Sony BSI CMOS and 88 degree wide lens with 5MP resolution for selfie shooter.
