Continuing its commitment to dominate as a leading trendsetter by coming up with stylish, intelligent, and high-performance products for today's youth, HONOR unveiled a new smartphone that marks milestones and usher us in a new era of mobility, the HONOR 8C.
Hot on the heels of its successful consecutive unveilings of exciting smartphone models, HONOR is bringing to the Filipino consumers the all-new HONOR 8C this month. Following the footsteps of its predecessors, the 8C stays true to the trendsetting attitude of HONOR.
Meet Meowington
Launching another first in the smartphone industry, the unveiling of the HONOR 8C marks the debut of Meowington, the cat ambassador of the new smartphone, making HONOR the first smartphone brand to introduce an animal ambassador. The HONOR 8C and Meowington are officially welcomed by the members of the local media in an exclusive event, wherein Honor's partnership with the organization Compassion and Responsibility for Animals (CARA) was revealed as well.
Consistent with its use of a cat ambassador, the HONOR 8C is the first smartphone to feature the Cat's Eye design. Available on the Cat-Eye Blue variant, the HONOR 8C is destined to turn heads with its gem-like glow, a subtle effect achieved by using the innovative 3D printing and nano-level pattern design technologies. The smartphone is also available in Midnight Black.
Snapdragon 632
The HONOR 8C is the world's first smartphone powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 632 chipset. Featuring an octa-core Kryo 250 CPU and 3GB RAM, the Snapdragon 632 brings up to 40% performance improvement over smartphones models that come with Snapdragon 626. The new chipset promises to speed up web browsing, make the user interface more fluid, and extend battery life – resulting in an enhanced overall mobile experience.
4000mAh Battery
Speaking of battery, the HONOR 8C may be ultrathin, but it never goes slim in terms of capacity. With a thickness of 7.98mm, one of the thinnest smartphones in the entry level category houses a massive 4000mAh battery. Such an ample capacity makes the Honor 8C capable of handling up to 12.5 hours of video playback, 11.1 hours of gameplay, 50 hours of music playback, 50 hours of standby time or equivalent to more than two days even without recharging!
Full View Display
Sporting a 6.26-inch FullView display with high-definition screen resolution, the HONOR 8C does not only provide users with a crisp and vibrant view of content on their phone, but also takes care of their eye's health. The HONOR 8C features a new generation eye comfort mode, certified by TUV Rheinland, which reduces blue light radiation emitted by the screen to protect the user's eyes and prevent eye strain, especially in lowlight conditions.
Dual AI Camera
The HONOR 8C carries a dual-camera system on the back. But going beyond the megapixel count of 13MP+2MP, a key strength of the smartphone's imaging prowess relies on artificial intelligence (AI). The dual AI camera system of the HONOR 8C is capable of recognizing and optimizing images based on 500 scenarios in 22 categories. Coupled with an aperture of F1.8, HONOR 8C's camera ensures that users will capture remarkable photos regardless day or night. Anticipating users will shoot tons of images, including selfies with the 8-megapixel front camera, HONOR has equipped the 8C with 32GB built-in storage that can be expanded up to 256GB via microSD.
Face Unlock and DND
Extending intelligence from the imaging realm to security, the HONOR 8C also features a smarter face unlock system. Equipped with the new LCD Light Compensation feature, the HONOR 8C supports face unlock in lowlight scenarios. The HONOR 8C also intelligently stops notifications, alerts, and calls from interrupting your game when you turn on the Do Not Disturb (DND) mode.
Just in time for the graduation season, the HONOR 8C is an ideal gift to students whether they are moving up to a higher level or exiting the school life to become a young professional.
