Comparisons Featuring Honor 7S
Short Review
- The Honor 7S features a compact design with dimensions of 146.5 x 70.9 x 8.3 mm and a weight of 142g, making it lightweight and easy to handle.
- Its 5.45-inch LCD display offers a resolution of 720 x 1440 pixels with a pixel density of approximately 295 ppi, providing decent clarity for everyday use.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6739 chipset, a quad-core 1.5 GHz CPU, and options for 1GB or 2GB of RAM, which are suitable for basic tasks but may struggle with more demanding applications.
- The rear camera boasts a 13 MP sensor with PDAF, capable of recording 1080p video at 30fps, while the 5 MP front camera is adequate for selfies.
- The 3020 mAh battery supports standard charging but lacks fast or wireless charging capabilities.
- Running on Android 8.1 with EMUI 8.1, the software experience is straightforward, though it may not include the latest features.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.2, and a microUSB 2.0 port, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device is available in Black, Gold, and Blue colors, though it lacks water resistance.
- Overall, the Honor 7S is a basic smartphone that meets essential needs without advanced features.
