Honor 600: Midrange phone with 200MP camera, long battery

Honor launched the Honor 600, a 6.75-inch 120Hz AMOLED midrange phone with a 200MP rear camera, Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chip and a 36h 12m runtime in looped video tests.

Honor has launched the Honor 600, a midrange smartphone priced below £500. The company released the model as part of its 2026 product lineup. A reviewer tested the standard model for two weeks and recorded the device’s key performance and camera results.

The phone uses a 6.75-inch 120Hz AMOLED display with HDR support. A reviewer measurement with a colorimeter recorded a peak luminance of about 855.75 cd/m2. The panel offers color modes labeled Normal, Vivid and Professional, and a Sunlight mode for extended high brightness alongside automatic brightness control.

The handset has a matte metal frame, rounded edges and a composite fiber back with a translucent camera bump that houses two rear lenses on the standard model. Dimensions are 156 x 74.7 x 7.8 mm. Weight is listed at 185 g for the non-EU version and 190 g for the EU edition. The front camera is a 50MP unit in a small circular cutout.

Performance is driven by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 built on a 4 nm process. The phone ships with Android 16 and MagicOS 10. Geekbench 6 scores recorded by the reviewer were 1,316 for single-core and 4,075 for multi-core. The device is offered with 8GB or 12GB of RAM and 128GB, 256GB or 512GB of storage. Connectivity includes Bluetooth 5.4 and standard Wi‑Fi.

Battery capacity differs by region: 7,000 mAh for the international model and 6,400 mAh for the European model. In a continuous looped video test the reviewer ran, the Honor 600 lasted 36 hours and 12 minutes before the battery depleted. The phone includes typical power management features and adaptive brightness controls.

The standard camera system pairs a 200MP f/1.9 main sensor with a 12MP f/2.2 ultrawide lens. The front-facing camera is a 50MP f/2.0 unit. A Pro variant adds an extra 50MP rear lens. The reviewer reported quick capture times and effective low-light processing. Video recording is available up to 4K at 30 frames per second, with higher-frame options at lower resolutions. Image stabilization uses gyro-EIS and optical image stabilization (OIS).

The reviewer described everyday use as responsive for web browsing and social apps. Honor positions the 600 series as a midrange offering in its 2026 lineup, and the standard 600 is priced below £500 in the U.K. market.
