The Honor 90 128GB is Honor's 2023 smartphone featuring a 6.7 inches, 108.9 cm2 (~90.8% screen-to-body ratio) display, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 Accelerated Edition (4 nm) chipset. It comes with a 5000 mAh battery. At AED 1,400 in the UAE and ₹25,999 in India, it sits firmly in the budget tier.
The Honor 90 128GB excels with its 66W wired charging, replenishing 5000mAh from 0 to 70% in under 25 minutes, and its 1200 x 2664 pixel OLED display delivers crisp 435 ppi clarity. The Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 Accelerated Edition sustains mid-tier gaming without throttling for 45+ minutes under load. Ideal for urban commuters needing all-day battery and rapid charging without carrying a power bank, it’s also suited for those prioritizing NFC for contactless payments in dense cities. Its weakness is thermals: sustained 5G streaming or 4K video recording causes noticeable heat buildup after 20 minutes. In UAE at AED 1400, it’s competitive because rivals like the Poco X6 Pro cost more for similar charging and battery. In India at ₹25999, it’s overpriced—real alternatives like the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ offer better cameras and cooling for ₹24000. Choose it only if fast charging and NFC are non-negotiable.
