Editorial report

Honor 9X Lite technical sheet

The Honor 9X Lite suits buyers looking for a large, slim Android phone for everyday use, provided battery capacity and fast charging are not priorities. Its main trade-off is power: the 3750 mAh battery has less capacity than most phones of its time, while 10 W charging is slower than what most then offered.

The 6.5″ IPS LCD display provides 397 ppi, a typical pixel density for its time for text, photos and video. Its 7.8 mm body is among the thinnest of phones from that period. The 48 MP rear camera combines an f/1.8 aperture with optical image stabilization. Its resolution, 1/2″ sensor and aperture are typical for the era, while the stabilization has no supplied placement against other phones.

A Huawei Kirin 710F, 4 GB of RAM and 128 GB of expandable storage make this a modest configuration: performance and connectivity are typical among phones of its time. Dual Nano-SIM, NFC, a 3.5 mm audio jack, GPS, GLONASS and BeiDou cover useful everyday connections. Android 9 arrives without direct OS updates. Overall, the Honor 9X Lite is a better fit for buyers who prioritize a large display and slim body than for those seeking a substantial battery. Its overall NeoScore is 4.3.
