Introduction

In April of this year, Huawei held a presentation of three smartphones in Russia: Honor 6 Plus, Honor 4x and Honor 4C. Those who are interested to familiarize themselves with them and not read full reviews, go on the link below:

IN huawei review Honor 4X I described the positioning of 4x and 4s in detail in detail - these are devices for those who want to get a powerful stuffing for relatively small money, at least it is now difficult to find the device for 9,000 rubles with two Gigabytes "RAM" and 8-nuclear processor. I would like to repeat once again that the price will not change, despite the rumors that supposedly Huawei conducted a promotional action in order to attract more attention to himself and gadgets, and later raised the price of 4x and 4c.

It should be noted that there is a small deficit to these devices, therefore, the "Honora" online store comes by parties. Next will be after the May holidays. And so, at the time of writing a review in the presence of devices was not.

And further. Official comment on the question of how to correctly call Honor gadgets, with or without reference - just Honor. So, while in the title "Huawei" will be present: Huawei Honor 4C, Huawei Honor 4x, Huawei Honor 6 Plus and so on. However, Honor is no longer a line of devices, as it was before.

Design, dimensions, control elements

Externally, 4C and 4X almost do not differ from each other, the difference can only be seen in the dimensions: 143.3x71.9x8.8 mm in the younger model and 153x77x8.6 mm from the senior. The weight is about the same - 162 grams 4c and 170 grams of 4x.

In Honor 4C, a slightly different structure of the rear panel plastic was used. If at 4x she resembled linen fabric, then here "drawing" is much simpler: transverse notches that form a lot of rhombuses, and the inscription "Honor" is not so large.


The rest of the apparatus is a typical non-"brick". I think everyone understands what I mean.





The device in circulation is quite convenient due to compact sizes (Yes, I believe that when the screen diagonally, up to 5 inches, the device can be considered compact), it is well lying in hand, the angles are not strongly dug in the palm. The housing is not slippery, but this is not the merit of perforation of the back of the device, it is simply plastic itself. The official site says that "the smartphone body is created from a three-layer composite material", "The screen takes 76% of the front panel of the smartphone, and the logo on the back panel is inspired by the traditional Chinese embroidery."

The screen is protected by glass Gorilla Glass 3. In a couple of weeks of active use, 4C nothing terrible with the display did not happen: neither scratches, nor chips, no wiping. Oleophobic coating is, however it is not the highest quality: even after wiping the surface of the screen, a bright flare can remain with a rag from the microfiber. The finger on the display slides without difficulty.




On the official website for sale two options for the Honor 4C colors: black and white. There is still golden, but not in Russia.





From above in the center there is a speech speaker. Its volume is medium or slightly above the average, the timbre is closer to high frequencies, lacks low. The interlocutor is heard clearly, but not too picky.


To the right of the speaker - the front camera, on the left - the lighting sensors / approximation, as well as the transmitted event indicator.

The display is typical android buttons: "Menu", "Home" and "Back". They are performed in the style of Lollipop, designated silver paint, and they have no backlight.


Micro-USB connector and microphone - on the bottom, on top - lonely 3.5 mm audio output on headphones or headset.



Left there are no items. The right is the power button and the volume keys of the volume. Comfortable.


From the reverse side - the camera module and a flash on a separate "island", the second microphone and speaker below.



Housing collapsible. To remove the cover, it must be hired for the micro-usb recess. Left - two slots under microsimcars, and between them - a connector for installing a memory card.

Display

This device uses the screen, the diagonal of which is 5 inches. The physical size is 62x110 mm, the frame from above is 16 mm, from the bottom - 17 mm, on the right and on the left - about 4.5 mm. There is an anti-reflective coating, but not very effective.

Huawei Honor 4C - HD Display Resolution, that is, 1280x720 points, aspect ratio - 16: 9, density - 294 pixels per inch. IPS matrix without air layer.

The maximum brightness of white - 353 cd / m2, the maximum brightness of the black color is 0.63 kD / m2. Contrast - 560: 1.

White line is the target we are trying to achieve. Yellow line - actual data this screen. You can see that we are located directly under the target curve, this means that with each value between 0 and 100, the image is not bright enough. Yellow line - in fact, the average amount of red, green and blue.



The average gamma value is 2.4. Schedule for mobile screen fairly stable.


Judging by the level of level, there is a small excess of blue and explicit drawback of red.


The temperature practically does not change depending on the brightness and is approximately 7500K.


Judging by the diagram, the data obtained does not quite correspond to the SRGB triangle. It is quite displaced right up.


The viewing angles are average, under certain inclons you can even notice inverting, not to mention that on the right we will observe a more purple picture, and on the left - yellow.

If you do not go into details, it is an extremely budget matrix with low indicators.

Battery

This model uses a non-removable lithium-ion (Li-Ion) battery with a capacity of 2550 mAh. There is no official information about the time of work of the device, so they tested themselves:

  • Playing 720p video (MP4) on the maximum brightness of the screen and volume in the headphones - approximately 6 hours
  • Browing via Wi-Fi - about 18 hours
  • Browing through 3G - about 10 hours
  • General average device operation (3G, calls, SMS, letters, twitter) - approximately 20 hours.

In general, Honor 4C showed excellent results. The role and chipset, and the capacious battery, and the low screen resolution played.

Communication capabilities

This model Works in 2G networks (850/900/1800/1900 MHz) and 3G (HSPA + up to 42 Mbps). Both symcar slots function in 2G / 3G. Unlike Honor 4x, there is no LTE support in Honor 4c. NFC chip is also missing. The remaining parameters are ordinary: Wi-Fi B / G / N, Bluetooth 4.0, GPS and GLONASS.

The official site says: " Laser technology And the double design improves the reception of the signal - the power of the antenna by 3 dB is higher than that of the smartphones of this class, which guarantees a steady connection in the zones of weak network coverage. For higher efficiency, GPS and Wi-Fi antennas use special asymmetric technology. " Unfortunately, or fortunately, I cannot confirm or disprove the word data - everything is typically for any such device.

Memory and memory card

The developers did not save on random access memoryTherefore, in this model you can find 2 GB of RAM. For a device worth 9,000 rubles - just an excellent indicator.

The built-in memory is 8 GB, about 5 GB is available for the user. There is a slot under the microSD memory card. The maximum card volume can be 32 GB.

Cameras

The main module is 13 megapixent (F2.0 diaphragm, angle 27 mm), front with 5 MP (aperture F2.4, a very wide angle of 22 mm).

Apparently, in Honor 4x and Honor 4C, there are equal camera modules at least, I did not notice a big difference. It is possible that automatics work a little worse in Honor 4C: sometimes woven with white balance, especially in insufficient lighting conditions.

For the apparatus, the cost of which is about 9,000 rubles, the personnel are obtained quite at the level of smartphones for 15,000 rubles.

Rear camera removes video in FullHD resolution at 30 k / s. Quality is usual, nothing interesting. The front camera removes rollers in HD quality.

Performance

In the Huawei Honor 4C, in fact, as in Honor 4x, the Hisilicon KIRIN 620 chipsets are used with eight processor cores. The configuration of this solution includes eight Cortex-A53 processor cores (technical processor 28 nm) with a frequency of up to 1.2 GHz and GPU Mali-T450 MP4.

In order not to repeat the above-mentioned Honor 4x review, I note that the device is 4C smart and absolutely not braking, the shell friezes are absent. With performance in games, everything is not so unambiguous. Of course, most of the toys go fine, but there are applications in which the number of frames decreases quite noticeably, some effects disappear. For example, Dead Trigger 2 did not start at my sample. Honor 4x behaved similarly.





brief information

Performance tests

Software platform

The device works on the Google Android operating system version 4.4.2. As a shell, a corporate UI called EMUI version 3.0 is used.

Multimedia

Honor 4C smartphone is equipped with standard music player own production. The volume of the sound output through the speaker is high enough, the quality is good (sound ring and clean), at least no overload and wheezing.

In the headphones, the volume is high. The quality is excellent. In the settings, you can easily enable the Melody playback mode with the DTS effect: the sound acquires more high and low frequencies.

If you are looking for a smartphone up to 10,000 rubles, then I recommend to look at the Huawei Honor 4C. For your money, the device turned out to be successful.

Huawei Honor 4C refers to the class of inexpensive smartphones with a powerful stuffing. This apparatus was announced in April 2015. The device has an attractive design, and also looks truly expensive.

Appearance and Ergonomics

The housing of the rectangular shape with neatly rounded corners is implemented from a composite material consisting of three special layers. The entire perimeter decorates the spectacular aluminum edging. About 76% of the total area of \u200b\u200bthe front part occups a screen that is completely covered with protective glass.

A controversial solution is the presence of a black frame around the display. This makes the matrix visually even more, but only in the off state. But the back cover received an interesting pattern in Chinese style, reminding silk coating. The case has undergone progressive processing and polishing. Thanks to this, keep the apparatus in hand with a special comfort for a very long time.

It is worth highlighting a separate metal unit from the back, where the camera is located along with the flash. Dimensions Huavay Honor 4C: Height - 143.3 mm, thickness - 8.8 mm, width - 72 mm, weight - 162. Case color - gold, white, black.

Display

The smartphone is equipped with a rather standard 5-inch screen with an IPS matrix. 1280 permissions at 720 pixels for such a diagonal turned out to be quite enough. As for the image, it is surprisingly high-quality. The display got a juicy color palette, as well as a solid brightness stock, so as not to get into the sun. There is I. manual settingswhere not only brightness is regulated, but also the color temperature.

Iron and productivity

Works Honor 4C under android management 4.4. This operating system is strongly modified using the EMUI 3.0 shell. The hardware base consists of a KIRIN 620 processor (eight nuclei, clock frequency 1200 MHz), 2 GB of RAM, MALI-450 MP4 graphics accelerator and 8 GB of integrated memory. There is the possibility of expanding free space up to 32 GB (MicroSD).

In all everyday tasks, the gadget behaves very well. Applications and interface do not brake, any slowdowns are missing. In ANTUTU (version 5.7), Honor 4C is gaining about 31,000 points. The demanding games are also launched, but the number of frames does not always please. It is important that the processor is practically not heated during operation.

Communication and sound

Huawei Honor 4C sound capabilities are impressive, although the device refers to the budget segment. There is a system of surround sound DTS, as well as a multimedia speaker with a good volume of volume. The microphone with a unique noise cancel system makes the user's voice clean and clear. The interlocutor is also clearly audible. At the same time, the support of two SIM cards is advantageously distinguished by this smartphone. The device can only work in 3G and 2G networks.

Camera

In Huavay Honor 4C installed a 13-megapixel main camera with a diode flash and a luminosity of 2.0. There is a rich set of settings, among which there is a popular HDR mode, as well as various decorations. You can change the focus point. In this case, the camera starts truly quickly. Instantly make the pictures themselves. In case of insufficient lighting, noises are immediately visible, and the photographs are very good quality. The frontal 5-megapixel camera is distinguished by a wide angle, so more objects are captured in the frame.

conclusions

For 10,000 rubles Honor 4C - excellent a budget optionwhich is suitable for everyone. It is worth noting that many other smartphones with a similar stuffing are several times more expensive. Included is the charger, instruction, uSB cable and warranty.

Pros:

  • Fast and high-quality interface.
  • High performance.
  • Good cameras.
  • Pleasant and clear sound.
  • Excellent display.

Minuses:

  • There is no LTE.
  • Little built-in memory.

Video reviews

Find Advanced I. inexpensive smartphone easily. You just need to pay attention to the company and its series. Special popularity has earned a model 4c. Despite the price, the phone is something to surprise.

Appearance Honor 4S.

Design is a weak point of budgetary devices, but the brainchild of Huawei did not touch this problem. Looks 4C, as a middle class representative. The housing from high-quality plastic is supplemented with a metal edging. The model attracts attention at the same time as its simplicity and elegance.

Influenced the appearance and coloring of the phone. Available Honor 4c in white, gold and black version. The first two colors perfectly complement the rounded lines of the device. White and gold make the apparatus sophisticated and stylish. And the black color is deletent the cute apparatus.

Front of a smartphone placed display, front-line, sensors, controls, spoken speaker. The nest of the headphones is in the upper end, and uSB connector With a microphone on the bottom. The back is assigned to the outbreak, the main chamber, logo and speaker. The power button together with the volume knob was sheltered on the right sideway.

The texture of the back cover resembles a drawing in the form of rhombuses. A notch is intended to improve the comfort of working with the device. Together with a slight weight, only 162 grams, the textured panel allows you to use the device with one hand.

The simo and flash drives are hidden behind the removable lid. There is a device battery. The manufacturer left the technical characteristics under the lid.

Worried a manufacturer and displays. The entire front side is covered with glass Gorilla Glass 3. Worried about the appearance of scratches and chips should not. Ensures protection also from traces of fingers on the display.

Autonomy

Honor 4c received a battery from the manufacturer at 2550 mAh. It will work the battery with minimal use about a day. Enabled Wi-Fi Reduced Model Life up to 18 hours, and working 3G to 10. Most of all on autonomy is influenced by watching rollers. The smartphone is enough for only 6 hours of uninterrupted video.

Camera Huavay Honor 4C

The main matrix of the device is 13 megapixel, and the frontal 5 megapixels. The device of the device is not inferior to the quality of the snapshots of the medium-class devices. Slightly lamely white balance, especially when lacking lighting.

Honor 4C phone has a diode flash and autofocus. The photo application is not bad worked. The program received many filters and shooting modes. Also, the camera is capable of shooting Full HD rollers.

Communication

Support for several sims is no longer possible to surprise users. Standard set Functions are also predictable. Smartphone supports Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS and GLONASS. Actually there is little interesting. In the apparatus there are no functions of LTE and NFC, although it is predictable. It is difficult to equip a cheap budget advanced features.

Honor 4C display

Screen diagonal in Honor 4c is 5 inches. The manufacturer has installed an IPS matrix in the product. The screen does not blind on the sun due to the brightness stock. Like all devices with IPS technology, the viewing angles are high. Pixels are invisible, because the screen resolution is 1280 to 720.

Said the company on anti-glare coverage. It is in the device, but with its task copes not in the best way. It is also confused by the pixel density. The screen has only 294 PPI. Although the shortcomings are forward to such an interesting state employee.

HUAWEI HONOR 4C hardware

Honor 4c works at the Hisilicon Kirin 620 chip. The eight-core processor with a frequency of 1.2 GHz. As a video screen, the manufacturer selected MALI-T450 MP4. The new employee is equipped with a two gigabyte RAM. The built-in memory of 8 GB with the ability to expand due to the card to 32 GB.
Honor 4C performance is impressive. Even middle-class representatives are not always able to boast of such results. Smartphone without problems launches all applications necessary for everyday use. Problems may occur only with demanding games. In the process of operation, the device is almost not heated.

System

The "Android" version 4.4, installed in Honor 4C, does not cause much delight. The owners of the device remains to wait for the system update to the fifth version. Although there is a smartphone, something interesting. We are talking about the corporate shell EMUI 3.0.

The interface has changed the curtain notification, the location of programs and minor improvements. The phone supports gesture management. The shell allows you to run applications without removing blocking. The system has become more optimized and smooth.

Nowadays, there are already few progress of mobile technique, few people are surprised not expensive and pretty high-quality equipment from leading brands from "under the heavenly". Such firms as Meizu, Xiaomi, ZTE, LETV are rapidly moved to the background of their competitors from Japan, the United States and Korea. But today we will get acquainted with the smartphone of the largest company from China Huawei and its anti-crisis phone honor 4C Pro.

How it is not difficult to understand from the name, it is a continuation or a more advanced version smartphone honor 4C. Since the smallest model was very big popularity, and therefore additional claims were not at the improvement and company Huawei listened to his admirers and tried to take them into account and at least partially correct. And this feature has this smartphone.

Brief characteristics.

Plastic and glass housing. Display on an IPS matrix, 5-inch, resolution 1280 x 720 points. Processor 4 MEDIA TEK MT6735P cores with a frequency of up to 1.3 GHz. (Cortex-A53), 64-bit. Video. - "Mali-T720". Operational android system 5.1 With the shell "EMUI 3.1 Lite". RAM 2 GB. The volume of the built-in memory is 16 GB. There is a micro-SDHC slot. Communication modules GSM, UMTS, LTE, two SIM cards are supported. Wireless interfaces - "Wi-Fi 802.11n", "Bluetooth 4.0". There are GPS and GLONASS for navigation. Cameras are at the back of 13 megapixels, front for 5 megapixels. Rechargeable battery for 4000 mAh. Sizes of smartphone 143.1 x 71.8 x 9.6 millimeters. Mass - 160 grams.

Design.

The smartphone is very similar to his more younger brother, the case is still made of plastic. Behind this plastic is a little glossy. Rear panel You can remove it, but there is no replace the battery, only in the service. The smartphone slides slightly in hand, but it is easily solved by the purchase of a silicone bumper.

The diagonal of the display will enjoy its 5-inch. The resolution for this size is quite enough 720p. And the grains are not observed. The margin of brightness in the matrix during the bright sunlight is not enough and for this indicator he reminds of its predecessor. The viewing angle is also not bad, but sometimes cleaned purple shade.

In this device, the battery is 4000 mAh and this for such a state employee cannot but rejoice! If you are slightly loaded in the middle mode, then it will be enough for you on a half, or even two days. And with an active game in games and watching video, plus the Internet then most likely it will be enough for a day full of utilization. So in his shell there are various inergoseling modes, so if you use them, then in the conversation mode + SMS it will last for a very long time. It also supports the function (which should be included in the menu) Charging other devices that is, can serve as a Powerbank and all this thanks to its powerful accumulator.

The main serves a module for 13 megapions. With aperture in F2.0, which is already very good. The resulting photos had good color reproduction, contrast and sharpness. Smartphone pretty not badly determined white balance that budget phone It is rare. If you take a picture with a small illumination, the results will delight the results. small quantity Noise and accurate focusing. The front camera is 5 megapixel. It does not stand out, with a diaphragm on F2.2, and for self-shooting it is enough. But the video in this device is not very advanced, since the Honor 4C Pro removes only with a resolution of 720p and with a frame rate of 30 k / s, and that, in our time, Full-HD is already quite hot enough.

The processor in the smartphone is not the most productive, so that in the games it is not enough stars, but thanks to a small screen resolution in the antutu tester scored 32,287 points. And it is enough for simple toys.

By March 2017, the price of this smartphone varies from 9950 - 11,000 rubles, and in the festive sales sometimes falls to 8500 rubles.

Chinese Huawei chose Russia for the global announcement of the new budget smartphone According to the brand Honor - 4c. We got the opportunity to study the device before the official presentation and find out how the tube with such good characteristics could be made so cheap - 8,990 rubles with the order only via the Internet or by telephone and free shipping throughout Russia.

The reason for the low price is in the selected sales model. In Huawei, they decided not to contact distributors and retail networks, organizing delivery directly from production in China alone, and sales - through the online store. Such a scheme has both cons - it is impossible to feel the device before purchasing, and wait for delivery much longer than the campaign to the nearest store. But this is an acceptable fee for the possibility of saving. Receiving orders will start on April 15, and in Huawei they are going to warm up demand, making the first batch of a limited 5 thousand pieces - who did not have time, this will have to wait for the sale of the second.

By buying a smartphone for 9,000 rubles, especially after what happened to the Russian currency at the end of 2014, anyone is preparing to compromise. Still - after all, the "flagships" from top brands cost five or six times more, "middle peasants" - at least twice as well, and after all, "middling" already means that something in terms of functionality will have to come. Let's see what inside the Honor 4C.

Honor 4C specifications:

  • Model: CHM-U01
  • Display: 5 inches, IPS matrix with a resolution of 1280 per 720 pixels (HD, ~ 293 PPI)
  • Processor: 64-bit KIRIN 620, 8 Cortex-A53 nuclei of 1.2 GHz, produced by 28-nm technical process

  • Battery: 2 550 mA * h

  • Colors: White, Golden Copper, Black
  • Price: 8 990 rubles

Honor 4c is made of plastic, pretty decent to the touch, but looking really pleasant only in Belaya and, possibly (taste) "Golden" color. The black smartphone looks unspoic. The back cover is textured for fabric, thanks to this, the gadget is safer in the palm of palm. Personally, me the appearance of the device does not particularly inspire. Something he is similar to an unexpectedly caused to Moscow at a meeting of the district level official - spent on the road from the station to decent shoes, but it was not enough for a new tie, put on his favorite, brilliant (this is me, if that, about the pseudometallic edging around the perimeter Display). At the same time, it is impossible not to admit: in this price category, this option is one of the most pretty. And the quality of the assembly at the height, the device is felt monolithic.

The device is far from the very narrow for such a diagonal of the screen (for example, the Nexus 5 housing width is 69.2 mm, here almost 3 mm more) and not the most thin - 8.8 mm. As a result, the device is felt more massive and less convenient than topics with a 5-inch screen. At the same time, at such a price and with such characteristics, nothing more compact on russian market Find until it will be possible (read about competitors and possible alternatives).

The eight-core processor confidently copes with a quick and smooth drawing of the interface, should not roll up in games - the screen resolution is not the most record, but with rendering of three-dimensional graphics in HD in modern chips have not been no problem for a long time. An additional guarantee from the "brakes" of the system and applications serve as worthy 2 gigabytes of RAM. Built-in memory of 8 GB - in this price category it is standard, you can expand it microSd map volume up to 32 GB

The display at Honor 4C, let's say, adequate - not the worst is not the worst (reliable color rendering, good contrast, good viewing angles) IPS matrix. But the permission is not flagship, bringing the smartphone to the eyes and strongly strain the individual pixels can still be considered. Yes, on screens with a pixel density above 400 dpi fonts look clearer, but most of the smartphone buyers for 9,000 rubles are unlikely to find fault - for a state employee, the picture is very clear. A few years ago, about the same density of pixels (306 PPI) in the iPhone 4 was considered a breathtaking.

The camera with the Sony sensor, according to the first impressions, photographs well - not "lying" colors, does not hurry when shooting indoors. But for some more serious conclusions you need, of course, cook full Overview Honor 4c.

A little upsets the fact that in April 2015 Huawei launches the machine with Android 4.4 on board - that is, with operating systemwhich is already noticeable for more than a year. It remains to hope that after the Announcement of the flagship Huawei P8 on Android 5.0 firmware based on latest version "Robot" will overcome over time and to the budget Honor 4C.

But the main disadvantage of Honor 4C, from my point of view - the lack of support for LTE. And the ability to connect to the 4th generation networks used in the KIRIN 620 system system used in the device, but in this smartphone (at least in the Russian market) she fell victim to marketing considerations. Wishing to get high-speed mobile Internet Huawei offers to look at the larger - Honor 4x apparatus with a 5.5-inch screen for 11,990 rubles. Almost all its characteristics (processor, the scope, the built-in drive) are identical to Honor 4C, only the battery is more prominent - 3000 mA * h. There is a suspicion that if Honor 4C becomes truly mass in Russia (and the price of this has it), craftsmen may eventually find a way to unlock LTE program methods. Because without LTE Mobile The Internet, at least with the Russian network infrastructure, is not the Internet, but torment.

In conclusion, let's talk about competitors. As already mentioned, such a combination of design, assembly quality, characteristics and prices for the Russian market is still unique. Devices like recently published Sony Xperia. E4 with their underestimated characteristics and overwhelmed due to coursework prices will have to be very tight. At the same time, having 9 thousand rubles, you can afford one of the rather wide range of good smartphones.
