If you've seen the mobile phone deals we've been shouting about recently on iPhones and Android devices reaching the heady heights of over £1,000, and thought 'who would pay that?', then these late-in-the-day Cyber Monday deals might be for you.
Honor is a sub-brand of Huawei, and while many might now recoil at the thought of buying a phone without Google Services installed, fear not – three of the four devices here have exactly the same access to Google apps as Samsung, Google Pixel, Sony and any other Android offerings.
Available from Amazon.co.uk, these Honor deals deliver huge value, and are perfect for those who just want to take a decent picture, browse the web, do some light gaming and – God forbid – make a phone call or send a text.
The cheapest is the Honor 8A, which sees a £30 reduction down to £99.99. Next is the 9A, which drops £20 to £109.99, but falls foul of Google's restrictions. Then there's the 20e, which drops £30 to £129.95, and finally the 9X Lite, which drops a huge £50 to just £149.95.
We'll run these down in detail below – all you need to do is take your pick.
What's so good about these Honor deals?
Honor is Huawei's budget brand, and delivers a lot of the Chinese giant's tech for a substantially lower cost. Honor is now effectively what Huawei was several years ago: a relatively unheard-of brand that's selling serious tech for cheap.
Great cameras that outperform the competition are a signature of Honor, but even if they were just mediocre, a ticket price of less than £100 will definitely be more than enough sway a lot of bargain hunters.
Unfortunately, Honor is subject to the same restrictions in terms of using Google's services as Huawei is, so newer devices will not have access to the Play Store. However, some pretty much brand new devices like the 20e have managed to get around this claiming to be mid-life refreshes of a device that was released before the ban was put into place.
Either way, we can't see this happening in the future for newer devices, so right now is definitely the best time to buy a powerful Honor phone that's also able to access everything any other Android phone can.
