Honor has officially launched its latest mid-range smartphone in China, the Honor 600 Yuanqi Edition. Sporting a sleek design and an absolute powerhouse of a battery, the new device looks to attract users who demand exceptional battery life without sacrificing aesthetics. The phone is priced starting at 2,699 yuan (approximately $380 USD), with regional subsidy programs bringing it down even lower.
Here is a breakdown of the official pricing tiers:
- 8GB RAM + 256GB Storage: 2,699 yuan (Subsidy price: 2,294.15 yuan)
- 12GB RAM + 256GB Storage: 2,999 yuan (Subsidy price: 2,549.15 yuan)
- 12GB RAM + 512GB Storage: 3,399 yuan (Subsidy price: 2,899 yuan)
The Honor 600 Yuanqi Edition is available in three distinct color options. Despite packing a massive 7,000mAh battery, the phone remains surprisingly sleek and comfortable to hold, measuring just 7.8mm thick and weighing 190g. Honor achieved this thin profile by using an integrated cold-carved process, combined with a refined matte metal mid-frame and gently rounded corners.
On the front, the phone features a 6.57-inch display with a resolution of 2728×1264 and a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. Selfies are handled by a high-resolution 50MP front-facing camera. On the back, it features a 50MP primary camera alongside a 12MP ultra-wide sensor. The camera setup is marketed as a “4K Live powerhouse,” supporting 4K Live photo recording with a suite of creative features tailored for content creators.
Under the hood, the device is powered by the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 mobile platform, paired with up to 12GB of RAM and 512GB of internal storage. The massive 7,000mAh battery is supported by 80W wired fast charging via a USB-C 2.0 port, making it easy to quickly top off the cell when needed.
