Unboxing
HONOR 90 Lite 5G, packaged in the familiar white box with the prominent HONOR 90 Lite branding on the front and sides. The tech specs and contents are written at the bottom of the box and provide a glimpse of what's inside.

Inside the box is the HONOR 90 Lite 5G, alongside a USB-C cable, SIM pin, 22.5W HONOR SuperCharger, a transparent protective case, the warranty card, and the user manual.

Design and Built
The Honor 90 Lite 5G features a design that is both trendy and posh. With sharp-looking straight edges, the back has a smooth surface that captures no marks or fingerprints. 

It is remarkably thin and lightweight, weighing only 179g and measuring 7.48mm in thickness, making it easy to hold and carry.

The design of the Dual Ring Camera, which draws inspiration from the world of fine jewelry, is a nice touch. This feature not only adds a touch of luxury to the Honor 90 Lite 5G but also sets it apart from the competition. In addition, the device is offered in three exciting colors inspired by nature: Cyan Lake, Titanium Silver, and Midnight Black, allowing you to choose a shade that resonates with your style.

On the right side of the device, the volume rocker and power button are conveniently positioned for easy access. In addition, the power button is also a fingerprint reader, providing a secure and efficient means for unlocking the device.

On the left side, you will find the SIM slot with two nano-SIM card slots for your 5G connectivity needs. Sadly, it does not support microSD cards for additional storage space.

At the bottom of the device, you'll find the standard USB-C port for charging and data transfer, along with a speaker and microphone. Meanwhile, another microphone is located at the top, ensuring crystal-clear audio quality during calls and recordings.

Edgeless Display
The HONOR 90 Lite boasts a spacious 6.7-inch Edgeless display, giving you a generous screen area with an impressive 93.6% screen-to-body ratio. The display has advanced technology that shields it from water, dust, and dirt, enhancing its durability.

 

Moreover, it's designed to be gentle on your eyes, featuring a TÜV Rheinland-certified Low Blue Light display. This certification means it incorporates helpful features like Circadian Night Display and Dynamic Dimming, which work together to reduce eye strain and improve your sleep, especially if you use it for extended periods.

And for those who appreciate vibrant colors, the HONOR 90 Lite won't disappoint. It incorporates HONOR Display Color Calibration technology, ensuring that the colors you see are both accurate and visually stunning.

Triple Camera systems
People who love taking pictures will be really happy with the camera systems on the Honor 90 Lite 5G. There's a 100-megapixel main camera that captures lots of details, especially in low light.

Then, there's a 5-megapixel wide-angle and depth camera that can make your photos look cool with a wide view and special depth effects. If you want to take super close-up shots, the 2-megapixel macro camera with an f/2.4 aperture is perfect for capturing tiny details. And don't forget the 16-megapixel selfie camera on the front, which makes your selfies look great and ready for Instagram.

Performance
The HONOR 90 Lite 5G is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 6020 chipset, backed by 8GB of RAM and a spacious 256GB of storage. This setup allows you to switch between tasks effortlessly and provides plenty of room for your apps and content. When it comes to staying powered up all day, this device has you covered with its 4500mAh Li-ion Polymer battery.

But that's not all - this device runs on MagicOS 7.1, a user-friendly system built on Android 13. It offers customization options to make your experience truly your own.

First Impressions
The HONOR 90 Lite 5G continues the brand's tradition of delivering a stylish and powerful smartphone experience. My first impression of the HONOR 90 Lite 5G is that it looks stylish and feels light. The camera looks nice for taking different types of photos. With its Dimensity 6020 chipset, it can handle multiple tasks easily, and the battery can easily last for a whole day of use.
