Honor 10: Great looker and a good performer

Huawei sub-brand Honor’s flagship, Honor 10 didn’t see the kind of fan following that OnePlus phones enjoy but it is one solid performer nonetheless. For starters, the design is simply eye-catching and still one of the best around with the curved glass and aluminium frame. The phone feels great in hand and the dual-tone back adds to its charm (especially the Phantom Blue variant). In a world where phone displays are growing larger by the month, Honor 10 manages to stay compact and facilitates single-handed operation courtesy of its 5.84-inch Full HD+ notched display that manages to output accurate colours. It is powered by Huawei’s then flagship Kirin 970 SoC with 6 GB RAM and 128 GB of internal storage.

Photography department is handled by a combination of 16 MP + 24 MP dual cameras backed by AI. The camera captures sharp images in average to well-lit conditions and the output is more than respectable in low light conditions too. Of course, the low light output cannot be compared to the likes of the Mate 20 Pro or Note 9, but for a selling price less than half of those two, it punches way above its weight. The Honor 10 debuted at Rs 32,999 seven months ago and currently sells for close to Rs 25,000 that takes its value for money proposition through the roof.
