Honors' decision to forgo both a zoom and a wide-angle lens is surprising for this price range. Photos are sufficiently sharp, and portrait mode works convincingly in most cases. The camera app offers a beauty mode at different levels.
Videos are possible at a maximum of 1080p at 30fps. The front-facing camera of the Honor Magic4 Lite 5G has a resolution of 16 MP. The device does not wobble during use on a flat surface due to the camera's central position. However, the film proved susceptible to scratches under testing. Honor equips the smartphone with an appropriately-sized screen protector ex-works. The SIM card port has a rubber seal, which suggests that the model may be water resistant, but the Magic4 Lite 5G does not have IP certification. The back cannot be dented, but is particularly susceptible to fingerprints. The device cannot be twisted and does not make any noise when subject to torsional stress. The general workmanship leaves no room for criticism. The metal frame, on the other hand, which is partly matte and partly glossy, is scratch-resistant. After two weeks of daily use, our review sample shows scratches on the back's lower area and the camera's hump. The blue color variant offers nice light reflections, but does not feel particularly high-quality. This is evident in the plastic back, for example. Honor opts for a middle-class case for the Magic4 Lite 5G.
