Editorial report

Honor 50 SE 12 GB / 256 GB / China technical sheet

The Honor 50 SE suits anyone looking for a large, fluid display and a high-resolution main camera; its main trade-off is a battery with less capacity than most phones launched around the same time. Its 6.78-inch IPS LCD runs at 120 Hz and has an 89.4% screen-to-body ratio. Both the refresh rate and screen-to-body ratio stand out against most phones of its time. At 8 mm thick, it is also thinner than most.

The main camera pairs 108 MP resolution, among the highest of phones launched around the same time, with a 1/1.52-inch sensor, larger than that of most. Its f/1.9 aperture is worse than that of most phones from the same period. There is also an 8 MP ultrawide camera and a 2 MP macro camera, with 4K video recording at 30 fps. The 4,000 mAh battery has less capacity than most, while 66 W fast charging is better than what most phones of its time offer.

This version has 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage. The Honor 50 SE is also sold in 8 GB / 256 GB and 12 GB / 256 GB configurations. Its connectivity is better than that of most phones launched around the same time, while its overall hardware performance is typical. It runs Android 11 and has no Google Services. Its overall NeoScore is 5.8: a fit for people who prioritize the display, connectivity and camera resolution over battery capacity.
