Honor 70 in for review

The Honor 70 just made its UK debut and it's now joining our review queue. Here are our first impressions before the lengthy testing process is complete.

The phone we have is in Emerald Green color, which is the best-looking of all three available in Europe. We also love how thin the phone is - under 8mm, and the 2.5D curved sides make it extremely easy to handle.

The dual-circle design of the camera setup on the back has been around for more than a year but this time the two circles aren't joined on an elevated island.

The top circle houses the 54MP main camera with a Sony IMX800 sensor, with the 2MP depth cam sitting right above, while the bottom is for the 50MP ultrawide shooter and a dual LED flash. Honor is really proud of this camera setup and we’ll take our time exploring its performance.

The Honor 70 ships with Android 12 and Magic UI 6.1 on top, and yes, it has Google Play services out of the box. The good thing is this midranger inherited some of the great features that the Magic4 Pro flagship has, like the multi-tasking option with floating windows and the app suspension.

Stay tuned for the full review in which we’ll have our verdict on whether the phone is worth it.
