Android version and market relevance

New smartphone from the company Honor got the name Honor 50 and was announced in June 2021. This model is released in the series of smartphones Honor 50.

Smartphone Honor 50 works out of the box under the operating system Android version 11. According to our information, this model has not received any updates to the software, and if you want to choose some other smartphone on this version of the OS with support for updates, then look at these smartphones on Android 11 in our catalog.

In addition the Honor 50 — is a smartphone for 2 SIM cards, which is ideal if you use the services of several mobile operators. And this model also supports 5G networks, which means that the speed of receiving data with this smartphone can reach up to 100 Mb/s. Soon, each smartphone will work in the networks of the fifth-generation (5G). Therefore, in our catalog on a separate page, you will find all 5G smartphones from popular manufacturers of Android devices.

Screen, body and battery

6.57-inch OLED touchscreen occupies almost the entire area of the front panel of the smartphone Honor 50 and has an original solution for placing a selfie camera in the form of a small round hole in the screen. It also stands out from other models on the market with its thin bezels between the outer edges of the body and the screen. A completely bezel-less case in a smartphone is still a rarity, but very soon most smartphones will get rid of their large bezels.. Body thickness 7.7 mm puts the battery in it in capacity 4 300 mAh. As a result, these three important characteristics give us such an idea of the device — huge smartphone with thick case and normal battery.

The most interesting thing is that the screen in the Honor 50 has a refresh rate of 120 Hz. The higher the value, the better. And this is very important in mobile games, because the high refresh rate makes the graphics smoother in the game. All smartphones with a display refresh rate of 120 Hz are collected in our catalog.

This model could become a flip smartphone and get into our catalog on a separate page, where all phones with flexible screens are collected. Unfortunately, this did not happen. And therefore, if you are interested in smartphones with such top-end characteristics, we advise you to look at them in our catalog and get a deeper understanding in which direction the entire mobile electronics industry is moving. Perhaps, in a couple of years, every second person on the planet will have such flip smartphones.

Main camera and selfie camera

A selfie camera is located in front of the screen with one lens: 32 MP Wide. Among all the cameras, this we attributed to the segment good cameras. This model has a front camera as usual at the top of the screen, like 99.9% of all smartphones. But, if this makes you bored, then we can offer smartphones with pop-up front camera. In these models, the front camera is located inside the body and goes up only when you activate the front camera mode. It sounds interesting, but how convenient it is and how long this mechanism will work is not yet clear.

The main camera got several modules (smartphones with four cameras): 108 MP Wide + 8 MP UltraWide + 2 MP Macro + 2 MP Depth sensor, located on the back of the body. We defined it in the segment super cool mobile cameras. Directly without hesitation can buy this smartphone and enjoy your photos and videos shot on it. Why do you need a camera with multiple modules in a smartphone? And what are the advantages of such a camera? This allows you to take very beautiful portraits with bokeh (blurred background) effect. And an additional lens with a different focal length provides a high-quality approximation (zoom) for photography. In addition, software algorithms can improve the quality of the photo after processing frames from each camera module.

Processor and Internal Memory

Brilliant multi-core processor Snapdragon 778G 5G (6 nm) installed in Honor 50. 8 GB of RAM will help make the interface work smoother. There is also built-in memory in the smartphone, which stores photos, videos, music and all your other data. The amount of this built-in memory is 128/256 GB. Memory cards in this model, unfortunately, are not supported.

Price for Honor 50: buy or not to buy?

Price Honor 50 at the start of sales was $425. A smartphone with this price level got into the price segment “Above average smartphones from $400 to $500” and got a very powerful processor, a huge touch screen, and the front camera is very cool with a super cool main camera, and you can make very high quality and creative photos with it.

If you want to buy Honor 50, you can choose any online store or offline electronics store, the main thing is to have a guarantee for the smartphone and the desired version of the model you have chosen.

Before buying, if you have the opportunity, it is better to hold the phone in your hands, check the screen, the quality of the photo and video, look at the smoothness and speed of the interface. Never buy a “cat in a bag”, be sure to check everything before buying. Today, good smartphones are worth a lot of money, so it′s better to spend an extra ten minutes to eventually buy the model that will work well one or two years and help you in everything.

Which smartphone will compete with the Honor 50 in terms of features and price? In our catalog, we found two models from Xiaomi that are most suitable in terms of screen diagonal and AMOLED technology, a main camera with a 108 MP module, and a Snapdragon processor.

The only caveat is that the Honor 50 has a better Snapdragon 778G 5G (6 nm) processor instead of the Snapdragon 732G (8 nm). And the Honor 50 also has a better front camera (32MP instead of 16MP).
