Honor Magic4 Lite

Honor Magic4 Lite 5G is one of the cheapest smartphones in the Magic lineup, although it loses its flagship killer edge in order to achieve that price point.

Editor Rating
3.8/5

The Honor Magic4 Lite 5G, as the name suggests, is a slightly downgraded version of the regular Magic4, which features a very similar design, although the back panel now features a more modest finish and a simple camera array that still features the circular design and layout. You do get a vibrant 120Hz display, but the panel type has been downgraded from an AMOLED to an IPS LCD. Still, you do get the same large, 4800mAh battery, with 66W wired charging supported through the default charger. Another big compromise comes in the form of the processor, which is now a mid-tier Snapdragon 695 chipset.

Bottom Line

Honor Magic4 Lite is the most affordable variant of the Magic series, although it does take a bit downgrade to reach that price point, both in terms of display and processor performance. You even get lower-tier camera sensors mixed in with the reliable 48MP main sensor, although that can be taken care of from the software side.
