Honor 70: opinions and analysis in Spanish

In this review we return to the high-quality mid-range with a device that is very close to the results of premium models. We talk about Honor 70, a state-of-the-art smartphone that stands out for having a series of additions that greatly improve its quality compared to past releases. The Honor 50which we also analyze here, we already liked it a lot for everything it offered in its different sections. Can the Chinese brand Honor be overcome with this new model? Read on to find out with a part-by-part analysis of this beautiful mobile that has come into our hands.

A continuous design

We are facing a very continuous design with respect to past models of the brand, especially the aforementioned Honor 50. It has small changes, but it must be admitted that they are devices that are very similar visually. The Honor 70 has measurements of 161.4 x 73.3 x 7.91mm and a weight of 178 grams, which could be somewhat less if it were not for the powerful battery that it has, which we will talk about in later sections. It is a similar size to what we have already seen, ideal for comfortable use. The materials are also almost the same, very soft and reflective plastics that achieve mirror mode. In addition, the curved finishes and the general shape of the mobile give it a much higher-end air.

Since everything is distributed, it achieves that the minimalist touch stand out, something that is also more common in expensive mobiles. On the left side we find nothing, on the right only the volume and unlocking, a single microphone above and it is at the bottom where the USB type C connector, SIM cards, a speaker and other microphones are accumulated. It is a very refined device and it is noticeable from the first contact, although we still do not understand the reason for putting two camera modules with a certain relief that take away a lot of space at the back. Its softness can be a problem, since it becomes a slippery model and we recommend that when in doubt you use the silicone cover.

Premium quality screen

The screen is another great point in favor of this mobile although, again, it follows what was previously established in recent launches. Technology FHD+ resolution OLED (2400 x 1080) in an aspect ratio of 20:9, the usual in mobiles that are in high ranges, or that want to get closer, as is the case with the Honor 70. The size does change, increasing slightly and settling in the 6.67 inches, so it’s a pretty big screen. The refresh rate is also high and keeps the 120Hzwhich will greatly improve our experience in daily use, whether playing or surfing the net without any interruption.

The last thing we are going to highlight is the decision to put curved edges. Honor thus intends to achieve the effect full view, a method that allows you to see much more screen and make it appear larger, without borders and with much more remarkable finishes. You get good viewing angles that, added to almost unbeatable visual quality and color, make this screen one of the best in this price range.

High-end camera set

Seeing the level at which the Honor 70 is, it is logical that it will have a set of cameras according to its offer. In fact, we have a set of rear sensors that are very impressive for their quality and power. We start with a 54 MP IMX800 main sensor, a decrease in power compared to other models but that does not affect the quality of photography at all, which remains very high in any circumstance. In addition, this descent has as a good consequence a support sensor 50 MP ultra wide angle and macro, an advance that will allow us to expand our photography ranges much more without denying an almost unbeatable quality today. Finally, it has a 2 MP depth lens that finishes completing this good rear camera.

Refering to front cameraa also we have a big bet. It is a 3 sensor2 megapixels with super selfie lens who takes very high-quality photographs and self-portraits. In addition, it also allows you to record very smoothly at 1080p, with this, the use is much broader and is not limited only to taking improvised photographs. We will be able to record ourselves while doing some activity and the level of detail will not depend exclusively on the ambient light that we have.

And speaking of the photo and video modes, it should be noted that we can do 4K videos with the rear camera, also taking into account that it has a very precise and useful EIS stabilization system. Going between modes through the menu has been very simple and intuitive for us and that is always appreciated. In short, a set of cameras that is very up to the task, reaching much more expensive mobile results.

Clear performance improvements

Without a doubt, to be a mid-range mobile, the Honor 70 stands out as one of the best in terms of performance within its price range. It has a latest generation Qualcomm processor, specifically the Snapdragon 778G Plus, an evolution of past models that is noticeable and much. The 8GB RAM They also help all the processes to work in an ideal way, being able to play games or carry out a somewhat more standard use without worrying about lag problems being noticed. Nor is the temperature a problem, which does not rise excessively thanks to a fairly optimal cooling system.

5G is already presupposed in the network bands, so much so that it is no longer highlighted or in the branding of the box. We have the model 256 GB of internal memory, although there is a somewhat cheaper 128GB model that is also quite complete. As we usually tell you, they are very large ROM memories and you don’t need much unless you work with your mobile device and accumulate many documents, videos and photos. In addition, as a latest advance, Honor has added the personalization layer to this device MagicUI 6.1a latest update that improves what was previously offered, also working with android 12.

Connectivity and battery of the Honor 70

The connections of this model are the typical ones, but all of them are well updated so that they work perfectly. By cable we only have the USB Type-C, we miss the 3.5 mm Jack, but we already know that some companies are choosing to eliminate this connection in favor of the use of TWS headphones. Wirelessly, we do have more varied options, such as the Wifi 6, Bluetooth 5.2, multiple geolocation systems and NFC to make payments by wallet or to access websites by contact. In general, it is a connectivity that is up to date and that, except for a small absence, is well above average.

Honor 70

As for the battery, it must be admitted that it also stands out for having a very powerful battery of 4800 mAh and a fast charge of 66 W. That it has so much load is a double-edged sword because we already know that this usually affects the size and weight of the device. As we have already seen, it is not excessively wide, but it is somewhat heavy, so it is something to take into account. At least it is a model that will not suffer from the battery part since it is very difficult for it to run out of charge and if it happens, it recharges in a few minutes.
