HONOR has introduced a new line of smartphones, which begins with the HONOR 100 series. Both models have HONOR’s new C1 chip that helps decide which network is best to use when making calls.
First, we have the sub-flagship HONOR 100 Pro, which is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. It is paired with a large 5,000mAh battery with a whopping 100W fast charging and an impressive 66W wireless charging that can provide a full charge in only 42 minutes.
There’s a large 6.78-inch OLED screen on the front, with a pill-shaped notch for the sharp 50-megapixel selfie camera and a 2-megapixel depth sensor.
On the back, there’s a 50-megapixel main shooter with OIS, a 32-megapixel with 2.5x telephoto lens, and a 12-megapixel ultra-wide shooter.
The HONOR 100 Pro has a price of CNY3,399 (~Php26,300) for the 12GB/256GB and CNY4,399 (~Php34,100) for the 16GB/1TB.

For the HONOR 100, we have a Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 — making it the first phone to have it. It also has a 100W charger, as well as the special RF chip C1.
It lacks the telephoto lens but has a similar 50-megapixel IMX906 sensor and 12-megapixel ultra-wide. We have a regular punch-hole on the front for the 50-megapixel selfie camera sans the depth sensor. Everything else is similar to the Pro model.
