If you know your smartphones, you would have read or heard that HONOR is known to have really good camera systems in their devices; and with each new launch from the brand, the cult following for HONOR just grows.
The latest series to launch is the HONOR 200, which includes the HONOR 200 Pro that holds one of the highest specs for a smartphone; we’re talking Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 processor, 6.78-inch AMOLED Quad-curved Floating Display, 120Hz refresh rate, 5200mAh battery, 100W Wired HONOR SuperCharge, 66W Wireless HONOR SuperCharge, Reverse Charging Support, and both a 50MP main camera as well as selfie camera.

The HONOR 200 Pro is made in what the brand calls, a “Natural Artistic Design”, and it comes in Moonlight White and Ocean Cyan (featured here). The back features two textures, both of which are impervious to fingerprints.

The rear camera features a 50MP (f/1.9) Portrait Main Camera, a 50MP (f/2.4) Telephoto Camera, and a 12MP (f/2.2) Ultra-wide and Macro Camera. These are decent specs for any new smartphone camera launch today, but HONOR also throws in an AI Portrait Engine, which enhances shadows and highlights, and other optical effects suitable for the picture taken.

Taking portraits with the HONOR 200 Pro is a breeze. Just select “portrait mode”, focus on the subject’s face, and snap away. The AI Portrait Engine runs automatically in the background, and will help you take the best picture in the given lighting.

Here’s an example of a portrait taken at night after a dinner food tasting. We approached Chef Steven from SIRI HOUSE to pose for us, and here’s an example of HONOR’s Light Enhancement at work:

The best way to test any camera system is by the way it handles low light situations and to adapt to them. The HONOR 200 Pro recognises ambient lighting conditions and captures photos accordingly.

We also cycled down East Coast late at night and captured the following photos:

As it stands, HONOR has proven that it’s a strong contender in the smartphone market with its super thin HONOR Magic V2 foldable — and now again with the HONOR 200 Pro. Photos and portraits taken with the HONOR 200 Pro are undeniably good. We also can’t get over how fast the battery on this smartphone charges. There are also AI capabilities that rival those from larger, dominant brands (this is a full-fledged Android device after all).
