Honor has quietly introduced the Honor 600 Lite in Malaysia.

HONOR 600 Lite design

Lite but capable?

The smartphone adopts a relatively straightforward design approach. It uses a Metal-shield Unibody Structure for durability, while the rear houses a rectangular camera module accommodating two lenses and an LED flash. 

A dedicated shutter button is positioned on the right side of the frame, likely intended for quick camera access. 

The Honor 600 Lite is offered in two color variants: Velvet Grey and Desert Gold. The device also carries an IP66 rating, indicating resistance to water and dust. 

The features

The device is equipped with a 6.6-inch AMOLED display, featuring a 1.5K screen resolution. The panel supports a 120Hz refresh rate and achieves a peak brightness of 6,500 nits.

Under the hood, the HONOR 600 Lite is powered by the 2.4GHz 6nm MediaTek Dimensity 7100 Elite processor. This is paired with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage.

In terms of optics, the rear camera system is centered around a 108MP primary sensor, complemented by a 5MP ultra-wide-angle lens. For selfies, the front camera offers a 16MP sensor.

The handset is backed by a 6,520mAh battery and supports 45W wired charging for power replenishment.
