The main question that involuntarily arises in your head when you get acquainted with the technical characteristics of the new Huawei Honor 7: why was it necessary to release it if there is an almost identical one? Seriously, analyze the two right columns of the table below - you will see that the Honor 7 and Huawei P8 are very, very similar. The fact is that in its homeland, China, Honor is already a separate brand, aimed at young people, and distributed exclusively via the Internet, due to which it is possible to reduce the final cost of the devices.
The line of devices, which was previously called Huawei Ascend P, and now simply Huawei P, was the top one in the company’s range and remains so. This means that the P8 is a gadget made with a focus on design and image. It stands on the polished display windows of trading floors, and there, in these same trading floors, they ask for money as for a full-fledged flagship smartphone. Let's put it simply: Honor 7 was originally made cheaper than P8. In Russia, the current price for the “seven” is 23 thousand rubles, and for the premium P8 – 30 thousand. Let's try to figure out what Huawei engineers saved on when creating Honor 7...

⇡#Appearance, ergonomics, fingerprint scanner
Huawei engineers have finally made the body of the next Honor series smartphone metal. And this, in general, is a significant event - previously the cases of gadgets of this family were plastic. This is where the good news regarding appearance probably ends and the ordinary news begins. The fact is that Honor 7 looks, to put it more precisely, mediocre - it can easily get lost among other Android smartphones. This is probably what the creators originally intended, because for the sake of image, there are P-series devices. Nevertheless, the appearance of the “seven” is rather boring – there is literally nothing for the eye to catch on to.
Huawei Honor 7 – front panel
The dimensions of the gadget are also quite standard, as is the weight - 157 grams. Your hands don’t get tired of it, even if you hold the device suspended for a long time. The thickness of the case is 8.5 millimeters. Most competitors are thinner. On the one hand, this does not seem to be very good for our test subject, but on the other hand, a fairly capacious battery of 11.78 Wh (3100 mAh, 3.8 V) fits in its body, so this thickness is justified .
Huawei Honor 7 – front panel
There are no hardware keys on the front panel - the operating system navigation buttons are virtual. At the top of the panel there is a slot for the earpiece, the sensitive area of the light sensor and the lens of the front eight-megapixel camera.
Huawei Honor 7 – front panel
Another interesting feature in the exterior of Honor 7 is the “smart” key. This is a hardware button located on the left side, under the middle finger of the right hand. The key is programmable; the user can assign an action to it (activate the camera, turn on the flash, launch the voice recorder, etc.) or launch an application. It is noteworthy that on this one key you can “hang” three tasks at once - single press, double press and hold. A very convenient feature, I must say.
| Huawei Honor 7 – “smart” key | ||||
Next to this very “smart” key there is a slot for installing two cards – Nano-SIM and a combined slot for Nano-SIM/microSD. Unfortunately, the smartphone, like many other Huawei devices, does not have a separate slot for a memory card.
Huawei Honor 7 – left side
The layout of the controls and connectors on the smartphone is standard. The power and volume keys are located on the right side. On the top edge there is an IR port and a 3.5 mm audio jack, and on the bottom there is a Micro-USB interface and an external speaker. The latter is not blocked by your hand, even if you hold the gadget horizontally.
| Huawei Honor 7 – side ends | ||
Another little surprise awaits on the back panel. Under the lens of the main 20-megapixel camera there is a biometric sensor, which was not previously available in Honor. But something similar was in the Huawei Ascend Mate 7 smartphone, released a year ago.
Huawei Honor 7 – fingerprint scanner
It is noteworthy that with its help you can not only unlock the device, but also answer calls, turn off the alarm, view the list of open applications (to do this, you need to swipe up on the sensor), open the notification panel (swipe down) and erase notifications (double tap on sensor). Moreover, the user can create a protected area for storing confidential information and classified applications, which will be accessed using a fingerprint - through a special section in the built-in file manager. The fingerprint sensor works quite quickly and, most importantly, accurately - on the official Huawei website it says 0.5 seconds for recognition, and this seems to be true. During testing, it unmistakably recognized the owner’s finger and did not react to “strangers.” In total, you can save up to five prints in the device memory.
| Huawei Honor 7 – biometric sensor parameters | ||
The main camera lens protrudes somewhat from the body, which is aesthetically not very pleasant. However, this does not cause any inconvenience: it will not be scratched, even if the device is lying on the table with its back down - there is a metal edging around the protective glass. Next to the camera is a two-section LED flash. We had no complaints about the assembly - the device does not creak or bend, although it does not leave the feeling of an expensive thing either.

Software
Honor 7A Software
The Honor 7A comes with Android 8.0 Oreo OS and Honor's own custom user interface – Emotion UI. It's important to note that the user interface is not as responsive as some others. Sometimes you need to swipe or tap the display two or three times to get the desired effect. The more subtle the action you are trying to perform, the more likely it is that the phone will not immediately respond to your movement.
The fingerprint scanner located on the back of the phone tends to be very picky about finger placement. Luckily, there is another feature for unlocking your phone: Face ID. Honor 7A is one of the cheapest phones in the market that has this feature and it works great. This is the fastest way to unlock your phone, but keep in mind that it is also the safest way.
Review of the Huawei P30 lite smartphone
⇡#Display
The display characteristics of the Honor 7 are in many ways similar to the display characteristics of the Huawei P8. In particular, they have the same screen diagonals and resolution - both gadgets have 5.2-inch Full HD displays. They have the same pixel density, 423.6 inches. This is a fairly high value - the picture on the screens looks sharp. There is no “pixelation” effect - individual dots on the Honor 7 display cannot be seen, even if you bring the device close to your eyes. You can see this if you look closely at the photo of the display below - the image is quite “smooth”.
Huawei Honor 7 – fragment of screen photo without compression
Huawei has still not installed a Quad HD display (2560 × 1440) in any of its devices - neither in the technologically advanced Honor 7, nor in the fashionable P8. A matrix with this resolution is already used by all the major players in the Android smartphone market - LG (, ), and Samsung (S6/S6 Edge), and HTC (One M9+), and Lenovo, and many other manufacturers, including the second tier . But Huawei’s first smartphone with Quad HD resolution is just about to go on sale – it will be the Nexus 6P.
The display installed in Honor 7 is made using IPS (in-plane switching) technology. Its viewing angles are quite wide - it’s quite comfortable to watch, say, movies and photos on the display together. There are no serious color deviations or shifts, or significant drops in contrast when looking away from the perpendicular. The screen is quite responsive, it responds quickly to touches and recognizes gestures without problems. In total, the device supports up to ten simultaneous touches. The gadget also easily understands touches with loose gloves - this is especially important before winter.
| Huawei Honor 7 – display settings | ||||
The protective glass of the front panel has an oleophobic coating, so it’s pleasant to touch the screen of the “seven”. During operation, it practically does not get dirty: even if the user left “fingers” on the display, it is not difficult to get rid of them using any cloth at hand. The Honor 7 screen is made using One Glass Solution (OGS) technology, that is, there is no air gap between the protective glass and the matrix, which reduces the number of reflections. A very effective polarizing filter also helps combat glare.
The backlight boundaries of the Honor 7 display are quite wide: the luminosity of the white field varies from 12 to 438 cd/m2. These brightness values allow you to comfortably use the device both in complete darkness and in the sun. The gadget is equipped with a light sensor, thanks to which it can independently adjust the brightness level that is comfortable for working in given conditions. The sensor works quite correctly.
The luminosity of the black field is small: at maximum brightness it reaches 0.33 cd/m2. This is a good indicator for an IPS matrix - the black color looks quite deep at any brightness, including maximum, without deviations into dark gray, dark purple or some other dark color. The contrast of the Honor 7 display is very good by the standards of mobile IPS – 1327:1.
Huawei Honor 7 – Grayscale Color Temperature
The color temperature of shades of gray is slightly higher than the reference value of 6500 K - on average it is 7500 K. Evenness is also not all smooth - very light and very dark tones are colder than the intermediate ones, and in general the picture is a little cold. If desired, the user can correct this in the display settings menu.
| Huawei Honor 7 – gamma curve of gray color (left) and color components (right) in comparison with the reference curve (indicated by dotted line) | ||
All gamma curves coincide with the reference curve - the smartphone display displays various halftones and shades correctly. That is, everything is fine with the display, except that the color temperature is too high - we have no other comments.
⇡#Hardware and performance
It’s easy to guess the technical content of Huawei smartphones and tablets in advance. This is how we reasoned in the case of Honor 7. The processor most likely will be a chip from a subsidiary of HiSilicon. Since the smartphone is intended for demanding young people, Huawei will most likely install the most powerful available solution in it - the eight-core Kirin 935 chip. This is actually what happened. We would like to draw your attention to the fact that even the fashionable Huawei P8 has the Kirin 930 installed. However, the difference between them is not very significant: the frequency of the Cortex-A53e cores is 2 GHz and 2.2 GHz, but the Cortex-A53 cores operate at the same frequency - 1.5 GHz. However, the very fact that Honor 7 has a more powerful system-on-chip is surprising.
General synthetic tests - AnTuTu Benchmark 5 and GeekBench 3 - clearly demonstrated the superiority of Honor 7 over Huawei P8: the new product is really more powerful. For example, in the AnTuTu task, “seven” scored more than 49 thousand points, while P8 scored less than 44 thousand points. At the same time, even the most powerful, the 935th Kirin, is significantly slower than the new monster from MediaTek (Helio X10 MT6795T, which runs the HTC One M9+). Look at the scores in the GeekBench 3 test: how dare we say it, One M9+ boldly beats Honor 7: five thousand points in a multi-threaded task versus three and a half!
Huawei P8 and Honor 7 have three gigabytes of RAM. Of course, fast LPDDR3 modules are used. The built-in storage capacity of the S7 test unit is sixteen gigabytes, of which less than eleven are available to the user. There are 32 and 64 GB versions for different markets, but whether they will be officially sold in Russia is not known. The user can install a microSD memory card instead of a second SIM card; there is no separate slot for a flash drive.
When performing everyday, mundane tasks, the Honor 7 behaves well. Literally a couple of times during testing, it barely noticeably froze - let's hope that this is a flaw in our pre-production sample.
The graphics controller in the Kirin 935 is the same as in the 930, and in the 925, and in the 920 – ARM Mali-T628 MP4, operating at 600 MHz. This solution, as you probably already guessed, is far from the first freshness. Therefore, it is not at all surprising that resource-intensive 3D toys on the Honor 7 are somewhat slow. Of course, this can be partially solved by reducing the graphics settings to medium or initial, but even this will not completely correct the situation. Honor 7 is not for gamers.
Honor 7S (Honor 7S), Honor Play 7 - specifications

As we can see, these are absolutely two identical phones, but with one subtle difference, which we will talk about a little later. These smartphones are equipped with a budget MediaTek MT6739 processor, which is enough for an undemanding user. True, there is very little RAM, only 2GB. This is not enough for comfortable work, so it is precisely because of this big disadvantage that we do not recommend taking a closer look at these models. But if you need a phone for calls, messages and a couple of connections to social networks, then these copies will be enough for such purposes. So how are they different from each other? Honor Play 7 supports CDMA networks, but 7S does not. This is where all their differences lie.
The data screens have a diagonal of 5.45 inches and HD+ resolution. It would seem that this is very little, but the high pixel density - 295ppi - saves the day. Yes, such parameters are not the best and there is nothing to admire here, but nevertheless, the user will see a good and rich picture, with more or less high viewing angles. The cameras on these smartphones are also not so great, but they are enough to capture some important documents or places. For beautiful landscapes, it is of course worth buying smartphones at a higher price.
In appearance, they are completely identical, on the front panel there is a regular screen with an aspect ratio of 2 to 1, and on the rear panel there is only a camera with a flash. If the Honor 7S comes in only two color options - black and gold, then the Play 7 also added a blue body and this color looks very beautiful.
⇡#Communications and wireless communications
As we have already said, the device can work with two Nano-SIM cards - the second SIM card is installed instead of a memory card. It is noteworthy and important that the smartphone has two separate radio modules installed - they work according to the Dual SIM Dual Active scheme, that is, when any activity occurs on one of the cards (for example, an incoming call), the second does not go offline. Working with SIM cards is implemented in the simplest way: after installing both SIM cards in the device, the smartphone will offer to assign which one to call, send messages and access the Internet with.
Honor 7 – SIM card management
The gadget can work in fourth generation networks – LTE Cat.6 is supported. The maximum theoretical data reception speed in mobile networks is 300 Mbit/s, upload speed is 50 Mbit/s. All bands important for Russia have been implemented - there should be no problems with 4G reception, regardless of the operator. In general, the smartphone reliably receives signals from mobile networks and does not lose it for no apparent reason. It is noteworthy that Honor 7 has a software option that allows you to improve the quality of signal reception - it is called “Signal+”.
| Honor 7 – improving signal quality | ||
In terms of wireless interfaces, Honor 7 is equipped almost to the maximum. The device supports Wi-Fi of all more or less popular protocols at frequencies of 2.4 and 5 GHz, Bluetooth 4.1 and is even equipped with an infrared port designed to control household appliances - for this it even has its own, quite convenient application called “Virtual remote controller". It is very easy to work with: the user must select the type of household appliance, find the desired manufacturer in a fairly large list, test the functionality of the proposed code and save the device. After this simple procedure, the treasured virtual control panel will appear. And all this is fine and wonderful, but the version that arrived in our test laboratory does not have NFC. Probably, modifications intended for other countries have support for Near Field Communication, as is sometimes the case with Huawei. However, our version did not have NFC - we double checked.
| Honor 7 – built-in Virtual Remote application | ||
The smartphone has a navigation module installed that can communicate with GPS and GLONASS satellites. We have no complaints about his work. A minute after launching the profile test, the gadget detected eleven satellites, but it used only five of them to determine its location. The error radius was moderate - within 8-12 meters, that is, he was oriented quite accurately.
| Honor 7 – AndroiTS GPS Test results outdoors | ||
⇡#Camera
The Honor 7 has a flagship camera set: the front camera is eight-megapixel, without autofocus, but with a number of interesting software filters. For example, it has a “perfect selfie” mode, in which the user can carefully retouch their own self-portrait: smooth out skin unevenness, make eyes smaller or larger, make them brighter, and so on. The retouching result is displayed in real time. The front camera of Honor 7 takes good pictures even in artificial light.
Honor 7 – front camera effects
The main camera of the gadget has a 20-megapixel sensor – these are rarely installed in mid-priced smartphones; usually this is the prerogative of flagship models. It is equipped with an automatic focusing system and dual LED flash.
Honor 7 – main camera
The rear camera of the smartphone takes good pictures. The automation quickly and accurately aims at the object and quite correctly selects parameters for different shooting conditions - there is no need to set the settings manually. Photos are obtained with natural colors, contrasting and sharp. The level of detail practically does not drop towards the edges of the frame, which is undoubtedly good. In bright light, photos come out very detailed. In the dark, the picture turns out a little “soapy” - the software algorithms fight noise too aggressively, but this is quite forgivable. We have no other comments about the rear camera.
Huawei Honor 7
View all images (5)⇡#Autonomous work
We have already noted that Honor 7 has a fairly capacious battery – 11.78 Wh (3100 mAh, 3.8 V). For a 5.2-inch smartphone, this is a perfectly acceptable battery. It is enough for the owner to spend a working day or even a day away from the outlet, provided that he at least sometimes lets go of the smartphone. During testing, Honor 7 did not leave us without a connection even once – and this is definitely good. A full charging cycle takes just under three hours; the gadget is powered by Micro-USB.
In our traditional test for HD video playback at maximum screen brightness, the device lasted more than six and a half hours, which is a very respectable result. At the same time, of course, its wireless modules were turned on, and data (applications, mail, and so on) was updated in the background via Wi-Fi. If you lower the display backlight level, the smartphone's battery will be enough to watch a movie throughout the entire transatlantic flight, without interruption.
| Honor 7 – power saving options | ||
Honor 7, like other Huawei devices, has three scenarios for using the battery with quite self-explanatory names: (auto-adjusting processor power depending on the task being performed) and energy-saving. The user also has the ability to automatically turn off Wi-Fi when the device is in sleep mode. In general, if you adjust the energy saving settings to suit your needs, you can extend the life of the battery by an hour or two.

These two smartphones are a very ultra-budget option, the only thing that is incomprehensible is this Pro console, if the characteristics of the cooler version are worse. These two devices are equipped with a budget Snapdragon 430 processor, which scores about 45 thousand points in the AnTuTu benchmark. This is a very small result for 2021, but nevertheless, smartphones will be able to cope with the simplest tasks. The amount of RAM was very disappointing. Honor 7A comes with 3GB of RAM, but the pro version can only be purchased with 2GB. Huawei, are you okay there? Since when is the Pro model worse???? Well, okay, let's move on.
There are no complaints about the screens, because for such a price they are very good. 5.7″ diagonal, HD+ resolution and high pixel density of 282ppi. The user will not see the disgusting image, and this is pleasing. Now let's move on to the cameras. Huawei, why does the 7A have a second module, but the 7A Pro doesn’t? How did this happen? The cameras of these two smartphones cannot be compared, since they are equally bad, and if they are important to you, then you should return to the Honor 7X.
In appearance, smartphones are no different from others. On the front panel there is a standard display with a trendy 2 to 1 aspect ratio, and below it is the Honor logo. There is a fingerprint scanner and camera on the back panel. These devices are available in only two colors - black and blue.
⇡#Conclusions
We chose the title “not enough honor” for this material for one reason: Honor 7 is too disrespectful to older Huawei smartphones. Seriously, let's face it: with the same P8, Mate S and others like them, he did what the first Volkswagen Golf GTI did with sports cars of the same time - he made them meaningless. Honor 7 is fast enough, it has many wireless interfaces, it can work with two SIM cards, it has good cameras, decent battery life, it is equipped with a good display... and official resellers are asking 23 thousand rubles for it at the start of sales! Yes, let's admit, he doesn't have a very expressive appearance. But for the above-mentioned gadgets, it is also not so outstanding that you overpay for it. This suggests a logical conclusion: why pay more? The conclusion was short, but that’s probably all we would like to say about Honor 7.
