Build and Design

Build wise, the Honor 8A is built with plastic having a glossy effect on its back. It is exceptionally effective at drawing in fingerprints and smudges. The plastic edge's shading matches the back, and it contains the volume rocker, the power button, a 3.5-mm earphone jack at the top, and a speaker just as the micro USB port at the base. The SIM card plate for two SIM cards in addition to small scale SD card is situated at the left-hand side. At the front, we locate a huge display with extremely tight bezels for a passage level gadget and a waterdrop notch. The base bezel containing the Honor logo is greater than the other three. Because of its adjusted edges, the Honor 8A felt truly comfortable in the hand.

Display

The 6.1-inch display keeps running at a usual resolution of 1560x720 with a subsequent pixel density of under 330 PPI. This may sound nearly poor, be that as it may, the presentation is splendid enough and daylight decipherability is additionally at standard with the competition. Outdoor convenience has been improved discernibly over a year ago's model gratitude to the display's higher maximum brightness.

Camera

As far as cameras are concerned, Honor 8A comes with a single camera on the back. The main camera features a 13 MP sensor with a light-sensitive aperture of f/1.8 for improved low-light photo quality. The front-facing selfie camera is equipped with an 8 MP sensor.

Performance

The MediaTek MT6765 Helio P35 SoC with four Cortex-A53 cores running at up to 2.3 GHz and four Cortex-A53 cores running at up to 1.8 GHz should offer a decent level of performance. Combined with the PowerVR GE8320 GPU and 2 GB of RAM, the Honor 8A outperformed its direct competitor, the Y6 2019 most of the time. Simple 2D games such as Angry Birds or less-demanding 3D games like Shadow Fight 3 ran smoothly on the Honor 8A, albeit some games may require reduced details to remain playable.

Battery

The device comes with a 3020 mAh battery. There is no fast charging support thus it takes much longer to charge the phone fully. Battery performance is great for a budget device having low profile LCD panel and decent internals. The phone can last a full day with normal to heavy usage.
