Honor is kicking off its 400 series with the all-new Honor 400 Lite. After skipping the Lite model in the previous 300 lineup, the company has decided to reintroduce it this year — and it packs a decent punch for its price.

Display
Right off the bat, the Honor 400 Lite brings a sleek 6.7-inch flat AMOLED screen with a full HD+ resolution and a super-smooth 120Hz refresh rate. The panel gets impressively bright too, peaking at 3,500 nits. Whether you’re watching videos or scrolling outdoors under direct sunlight, this display holds up.
There’s an optical in-display fingerprint scanner tucked neatly under the screen for security, while the front-facing camera is housed in a pill-shaped cutout. You’ll also find a 16MP selfie cam paired with a tiny LED flash up front — perfect for selfies even in low-light environments.
Design
The back of the phone showcases a fresh new look. Unlike the rounded camera modules we saw in previous Honor series phones, the 400 Lite sports a triangular camera island. It’s a clean departure from the older oval designs and definitely gives the phone some character.
You’ll find a powerful 108MP main sensor with a large 1/1.67-inch size and f/1.75 aperture, offering crisp shots and up to 3x lossless zoom. This is paired with a 5MP ultrawide lens that doubles as a depth sensor, adding versatility to your mobile photography.
Features
One of the standout additions is the new AI camera button located just below the power key. It’s a shortcut to instantly open the camera app, snap pictures, zoom, or record videos. Long-pressing this button activates a smart search feature that helps identify objects around you — a handy tool if you’re exploring or shopping.
This kind of AI integration shows that Honor is leaning heavily into smarter user experiences without overcomplicating the phone’s interface.
Hardware
Under the hood, the Honor 400 Lite runs on the MediaTek Dimensity 7025-Ultra chipset. It’s paired with either 8GB or 12GB of RAM, and storage options go up to 256GB — though there’s no microSD support this time around. Powering all this is a 5,230 mAh battery with support for 35W fast wired charging, which should comfortably get you through a full day and then some.
On the software side, it ships with MagicOS 9.0 layered on top of Android 15, making it one of the first mid-range devices to run the latest Android version straight out of the box.
Price
The Honor 400 Lite comes in three shades — green, black, and grey. In Austria, the 8GB RAM and 256GB storage model is currently available for pre-order at €269. After launch, it will retail for €299. First deliveries are expected around April 8–9. A wider international release is likely on the way.
