Editorial report
Honor 9S technical sheet
The Honor 9S may suit buyers looking for a compact, light phone, provided they accept a battery with less capacity than most phones of its time. It weighs 144 g, less than most, and measures 146.5 mm tall and 70.9 mm wide. Its 5.45-inch IPS LCD display has a resolution of 720 × 1440 px; pixel density at 295 ppi is below average.
A MediaTek Helio P22 pairs with 2 GB of RAM and 32 GB of storage. Its RAM is among the lowest amounts for phones of its time, while storage is less than most offer, though it can be expanded. The 8 MP rear camera is among the lowest-resolution cameras of its time, and its f/2 aperture is worse than most. The front camera is 5 MP; both record video at 1080p and 30 fps.
Connectivity includes dual Nano-SIM, 4G LTE, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS, GLONASS and BeiDou. Overall, its connectivity is worse than that of most phones of its time. The 3,020 mAh battery also has less capacity than most. Android 10, a 3.5 mm audio jack, FM radio and microUSB round out the listed features.
Its overall NeoScore is 3.2. The Honor 9S is a basic, manageable option for buyers who prioritize low weight and can live with clear limits in battery capacity, camera specifications and performance hardware.
