HONOR 10 Lite announced: Flashy gradient colors and Kirin 710 for under $300
Earlier today, HONOR quietly announced the HONOR 10 Lite. Aimed at a younger audience, the handset features mid-tier specs paired with a flashy design that should grab the eye of anyone who sees.
Around front, you will find a 6.21-inch LCD display with a resolution of 1080×2340. It isn’t quite flagship-level quality, but it’s on par or better than other mid-tier smartphones.
Internally, the HONOR 10 Lite is powered by the Kirin 710 CPU, 4GB or 6GB of RAM, and 64GB or 128GB of built-in storage. If that’s not enough space for all of your photos and videos, you can expand it using up to a 512GB microSD card.
Speaking of photos and videos, the handset features a dual lens setup with a 13MP f/1.8 sensor paired with a secondary 2MP shooter. Around front, the HONOR 10 Lite sports an AI-powered 24MP camera.
