Meet the New Pro From Honor

Meet the New Pro From Honor

Huawei's sub-brand Honor has been getting quite a reputation when it comes to devices that give the consumer the best of both worlds - performance with good looks. The brand struck gold with both the Honor 8 and the Honor 8 Lite in the Indian market, and now with the Honor 8 Pro, it looks like the brand has pulled off a hat-trick.

On the front, the Honor 8 Pro comes with a 5.7-inch Quad HD (2K) display which has minimal bezels on the side. The display itself boasts a near cinema standard colour gamut that reproduces your favourite movies and shows the way they were meant to be seen. Moreover, Honor 8 Pro encourages you to engage with VR content as it comes equipped with both a cardboard and the Jaunt VR app.

The mid-range flagship segment is quite a competitive space, with high-performing devices that can give premium flagships a run for their money. That stands true for the Honor 8 Pro as well. The new octa-core Kirin 960 raises CPU processing by 18 percent, while the Mali-G71 GPU exceeds its predecessor in graphic rendering by 180 percent, compared to the previous generation SoC. That paired with 6+128GB RAM+storage gives it enough boost to simply glide through the heaviest apps and games without heating or lag. Further, its Vulkan API enables console-quality visuals at high frame rates.

The Honor 8 series have all had great cameras so far, and Honor 8 Pro is no exception. It boasts a horizontally-placed 12-megapixel dual-camera setup that's comprised of a monochrome and a RGB lens that work together to create excellent images with brilliant contrast that makes the colours pop. It even shoots UHD 4K videos that surprisingly doesn't clutter your phone's storage thanks to Honor's revolutionary compressing technology. The centre placement of the fingerprint sensor keeps it at a distance from the camera, avoiding accidental smudges on the lens.

The front 8-megapixel has a 77-degree wide-angle lens and that's great for a solo selfie with a backdrop or even a group selfie. It does a great job of skin smoothening as well, which eliminates minor blemishes from the face, giving you a professional looking portrait.

You'd be surprised with its slim size, and despite its sleek design, Honor has managed to put-in a massive 4000mAH battery. The high-density battery along with the SmartPower 5.0 technology can easily give you two full days of battery backup with regular use, and close to 1.5 days of heavy use. The multiple power-saving modes in the phone ensure you're making good use of the remaining battery power, in case you're running low. Now leave your power bank and charger at home.

From the sleek, yet practical design, the amazing camera, gorgeous display and the all new EMUI 5.1 interface ensures that no function is more than three taps away. The Honor 8 Pro is a delight and a must have for power users.

At a price of Rs. 29,999, and available exclusively via Amazon.in, the Honor 8 Pro comes second to no other device in the market.
