Huawei had a big event today and the first product to be announced was none other than the Huawei Honor 8 Lite model, which we are already familiar with, thanks to the recent listing in Finland.

Huawei revealed that the Honor 8 Lite comes with a 12-layer mirror coating to make it look premium. The phone comes in four color options, Midnight Black, Streamer Gold, Sea Blue and Pearl White. The phone features a 5.2-inch 1080p display up front with curved glass on top. Under the hood, the Honor 8 Lite version features the mid-range Kirin 655 processor. In comparison, the Huawei Honor 8 flagship came with the powerful Kirin 950 chipset. One of the highlights of the device is that it runs on the new Android 7 Nougat version based on EMUI 5.0.

At the back, the phone features a single 12MP f/2.2 aperture camera while up front, there is an 8MP wide-angle shooter. The front camera uses the light from the LCD to light up your selfies even under dark lighting conditions.

Other features of the Honor 8 Lite are already known to us. So, the phone comes with 3GB RAM, 32GB internal storage expandable up to 128GB and 3000mAh battery. There should be a 4GB RAM high version as well, but the company is yet to confirm this.
