Buying a smartphone is always a bit of a risk. If I’m honest, there’s a risk of them all looking a bit “samey” and you might not know if the phone is really going to suit your needs or not. Buying online is something else to consider, and …
Honor have a competition on right now. Perhaps it’s to find the letter “U” from their name. Who knows. What I can tell you is that they’re giving away some limited edition flip cases (they look a bit like this but more .. errr.. limited edition-ee) and some …
Huawei have released their P9 and P9 Plus and we will be seeing them in store very very soon. The phone looks to be a fantastic bit of kit and we are very excited about as you may have been able to see from Leigh’s extensive coverage. However, …
Sorry. It’s Sunday though, so we’re allowed. Just to clear this one up. It’s Honor – For the brave.. ..and Doritos – For the Bold.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4R2RaOWb94 So that’s… Honor – For the Brave… Doritos – For the Bold.. OK. I’ve got that out of my system now. I’m …
Remember how Wilkin Lee promised to have his hair styled if the Honor UK Twitter account hit a certain amount of followers? Well, they’re nearing 5,000 followers now and Wilkin has gone and done it. His time at the barbers is shown here on Twitter and he’s now …
Right, you know the deal. The Honor 5X is already a crackin’ bit of kit for the money. It’s got a 5.5″ 1080×1920 display and is powered by an Octa-core 1.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 616 CPU. There’s a 13 megapixel rear camera sensor (f/2.0 with dual-LED flash) and a …
Recently I was at the Honor 5X European launch in Munich, Germany. Since then, as well as recovering from a Red Bull Cola high, I’ve been working on the review of the Honor 5X. In this article I’ll give you my review of the hardware and my impressions. …
The Honor 5X is a great phone at a great price and today Three UK have announced just how much you’ll be paying if you’d like it from them. The deal includes all the usual Three benefits such as the Feel At Home service which lets you use …
Wilkin is the Sales and Marketing Manager for Honor UK. At the recent Honor 5X launch he spotted Booy Beerling sporting this rather cool hair-cut .. Wilkin said he loved the branded haristyle, and said that it could very well be his next haircut. However, the rest of …
I’ve got to admire Honor. Yes, they’re “really” a brand from Huawei but that, in a way, just makes them even better in my book. They deliver good phones at good prices and that’s something that you can’t really argue with. The Honor 5X has already appeared in …
We’re here, live in Germany, for the announcement of another well-priced marvel from Honor. All the latest news and our thoughts will be added to the live blog below, so keep an eye on the updates. Be warned: Matteo may make a few comments about mockodile too…
Just a short while ago we had an excellent author, editor, podcast creator and general phone guru writing for us. You may remember him. He goes by the name of James Pearce and sadly only managed to write 1,707 articles before the boys at Honor went and offered …
We’re all feeling far too fat. There’s still boxes of chocolates everywhere and for breakfast we had turkey on toast. Still, despite the fact that we should probably all be relaxing, loads of you will be out in the sales to finally demolish any remaining allowance you had …
Right, you’ve only got a few hours on this one, so be quick. We know that the Honor 7 has been dropped in price from the vMall already, but this offer is now direct from Amazon and includes free UK delivery. The Honor 7 has been dropped in …
Don’t know who Honor are? For one they are the company that pinched our own James Pearce, secondly they are part of the phone manufacturer Huawei. They’re based more on-line than having retail outlets, but they’re still able to supply high spec’d devices with reasonable price tags. As …
Welcome to the Cool Smartphone Podcast Episode 161. In this special episode John, Matteo & Gary are joined by Wilkin and our old friend James from Honor UK. In the Interview Honor discuss how they have set up their brand in the uk and also give a little …
Honor are as you would expect haveing a bit of a thing for black Friday and are inviting people to claim vouchers through their vMall store to get some tidy discounts off the Honor 7. It seems like the sign-up bonus will discount the price of the Honor …
Hmm.. The Honor 7. I’m sure someone told me this was a “mid-range” handset. It was almost as if they didn’t want me to get to excited about it. Let’s have a look at the specs first then.. Screen – 5.2″ 1080×1920 (424 ppi) CPU – HiSilicon Kirin …
Hello. I’m reviewing the Honor 7 handset at the minute and, as I always do, it’s my main device for the next week or so. As part of my testing, I’ve been playing with the camera. The camera, let me tell you, is really rather good. At the …
What’s that? I shouldn’t be writing articles after just two hours sleep? Pah. What’s the absolute worse that could happen here. I don’t need no sleep to write proper. We were at the Honor 7 launch just a few short days ago and, we have to say, it …
I enter into the Huawei Cloud Park. It’s a modern office complex with relaxed-looking staff holding coffee as they scan through security terminals. I walk past some PR girls wearing the now familiar Honor T-shirts. They’re holding teddy bears and flowers. I’m not entirely sure why, but it’s …
Welcome to the Coolsmartphone Podcast episode 152. In this Episode John is joined by Gary and Podcast newcomer Mike to discuss: Mike’s experiences of SmartWatches The News from the Honor and WileyFox launch events including: The currently unnamed Honor Smart Band The WileyFox Swift and Storm How the …
Last night, at the Honor launch event in London, we learned more about the Honor 7, plus the fact that you can actually buy the thing at vMall – an official Huawei and Honor store. Buying handsets direct is something people are more confident about doing now, and …
The rumour mill in the build up to IFA has officially started. In the Sony camp we have already seen the earlier gossip, but now we’re hearing from Huawei too. They have a busy schedule lined up over the next few months. First they’ll be working with Alphabet …
Do you fancy cheering yourself up over the next few days? If so, then we have a wee contest for you to check out. Our friends at Skyscanner, Honor and Three have all collaborated to put a prize fund together. The prize fund will include an Honor 6+ …
Chinese phone manufacturer Huawei has managed to sell out of Honor 7 handsets incredibly quickly. They shifted over 200,000 of their new flagship handset – the Honor 7 – in just two minutes during a recent promotional sale. The Honor brand has been gaining ground recently and this …
Honor decided to step up their game with the 6+, in a world of fancy curved glass or metal devices they had to release a really good looking device and at a decent price point too. Quite how a relatively new brand make a mark on the mobile …
Let’s set your expectations shall we? This is £149.99. It’s not going to compete with a Samsung Galaxy S6 and it’s not going to challenge the very latest iPhone either. What it does, even with a slightly older version of Android, it does well. This is from a …
I seem to be bumping into phone bloggers who are getting widely recognised by PR people, networks and manufacturers for adding a few YouTube videos and making a couple of posts on Facebook. No website. No slaving away for hours writing huge reviews. Just a quick video, a …
This weekend, while you’re enjoying an Easter break painting fences / wallpapering rooms or perhaps even spending several days in the pub.. if you’re lucky. Today Honor, a Huawei owned company, have announced the pricing and availability. As you lovely people know already, it’ll have a network exclusive …
Three have just announced they will exclusively offer the Honor 6+ on a monthly contract here in the UK, away from having to purchase the phone outright. We’ve already had a hands-on with this thanks to the guys in Barcelona. The Honor 6+ is a device not many …
If you’ve got yourself £250, the new Huawei Honor could be your next phone. But wait – now that the phone has arrived here in the UK, something rather magical has happened… It’s no longer called the “Honor”, but instead will be known as the correctly-spelt “Honour”. You …
This one has been out for a few months now, but we figured it was worth a few shots if you’re considering one. Here’s a rather bright version – you can get lots of different rear panels and they had a selection on the stand. Specs then, 8 …
