The Honor 200 and 200 Professional had been nearly evenly matched in final week’s ballot. The Professional mannequin edged out its vanilla sibling by a bit, however each have round 40% approval charges.
The Honor 200 Professional is actually the higher cellphone of the 2. At £700/€800, it has a near flagship worth to match its near flagship specs, however that could be a harmful sport – older flagships get cheaper by the day.
The construct high quality isn’t fairly there with solely an IP65 score and no phrase on strengthened glass. And the pill-shaped notch perhaps wasn’t value it. That apart, each telephones had been recommended for his or her appears to be like.
The vanilla Honor 200 drops right down to a Snapdragon 7 Gen 3, which whereas an incredible chip, is a mid-range possibility. The £500/€600 price ticket does put the cellphone within the premium mid-range phase, however Snapdragon 8-series chips aren’t exceptional on this phase. The OnePlus 12R (SD 8 Gen 2) and Nothing Cellphone (2) (SD 8+ Gen 1) come to thoughts. They’ll’t fairly match the Honor cameras, nevertheless.
Anyway, a few of the omissions nonetheless damage at this worth vary – no IP score in any respect, the cool wi-fi (and reverse wi-fi) charging is gone and the show and predominant digital camera have been dialed again barely.
The Honor 200 and 200 Professional can be found for pre-order globally, open gross sales will begin on June 26 (Wednesday).
