  • As flagship smartphones become more powerful [and expensive] with each new model, we thought it would be interesting to examine how this technological progress impacts the lower-cost options in the market. With such incredible technology appearing in such readiness in top-of-the-line smartphones, surely some of that magic dust is gonna land on the cheaper models, right?
    It's definitely worth checking out, so we chased Honor to take a look over their Honor Magic 5 Lite 5G handset, which comes in [at the time of reviewing] at less than £300.
    Watch our review here and let us know your thoughts on whether this might make an attractive alternative for those looking to save some cheddar.

    Nice review there, mate.

    For that price, I can't really complain.

    With mine operator cost me 6 euro monthly with 2 years plan,i have always been using samsung devices not the premium one but A series,but this time what price samsung wants for their A 54 is too much for me,so this honor magic is cheaper absolutely designed wiesly more beautifully looking phone and for my needs performed perfectly,coming from A 72 phone

    the design on this really is nice and the brightness is pretty ok all these devices over 1000 nits to be honest are nice but they dim down after a few minutes if not less I have had so many do this the peak brightness should be taken with a pinch of salt.....just like RMS and PMPO......in sound........;)
    1600 and 1700 nits etc just time how long these stay at this level for in direct sunshine.........
    I think donor did a nice job I only use the close up macro lens I don't take super sonic pictures and the snap dragon 600 series as well as a 5100 battery to have a phone that lasts all day without me having to carry a power bank strapped to my back well.....its worth the trade off to be honest it reminds me of the phones I owned back in the very early 2000
    I am growing tired of modern phones draining the battery like a ticking bomb and it over heating.
    and ive always been a flagship buyer......says it all really even for me ;)
    I have just sold my pixel 7 and bought the magic 5 lite again (this time the 8/256 version I previously had 6/128.......the pixel devices are nothing but buggy as hell!!!
    its a bit much when Samsung ONEUI has far less bugs and has a more pleasurable experience than googles offering!
    good review ;)

    something is strange with this handset because I tried to sell the 8/256 version only a few week old mint condition to a well known recycle company I entered my IMEI number and was quoted £213 but it showed the 6/128 version mine was the 8/256 the IMEI was correct /same I sent it in but I received an email a few days later and I got offered £40!!!!!
    the email read this ???
    The item we received was:
    Honor Magic 5 Lite 256GB full value of £40.00
    You Placed an Order for
    Honor Magic 5 Lite 128GB full value of £213.00
    how can there be £170 difference on the same handset but larger storage and ram!!!!
    how can this be anyone any ideas???
    with IMEI correct?

    Don't buy this rubbish. Is the worst phone ever. The camera is the worse part, it's takes seconds to take a picture and is so unclear and foggy. 2013 phone not 2023.At first you think it's fine but after a month of use you'll regret you waisted your money on this.
