Comparisons Featuring Honor Holly
Short Review
- The Honor Holly features a simple yet functional design with dimensions of 142.2 x 72.3 x 9.4 mm and a weight of 156g, available in white and black.
- Its 5.0-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 294 ppi, though it lacks HDR support.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6582 chipset, a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU, and 1GB of RAM, which may struggle with demanding applications.
- The rear camera is an 8 MP unit with f/2.0 aperture and autofocus, capable of recording 1080p video at 30fps, while the 2 MP front camera is suitable for basic selfies.
- The 2000mAh battery offers standard usage without fast or wireless charging options.
- Running on Android 4.4.2 with EMUI 2.3, the software experience is basic and may feel outdated.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, and microUSB 2.0, but it lacks 5G and NFC capabilities.
- The absence of stereo speakers is notable, though it retains a headphone jack for audio.
- Overall, the Honor Holly is a straightforward device with essential features for everyday use.
