GSMArena showcases the Winners and Losers of every year which i always follow, as it gives a glimpse on how the OEMs did with their products. As, 2021 was important for HONOR, as it came back as an individual company. Hence, let's see what GSMArena says about HONOR for 2021.
To say 2021 was a bounce-back year for Honor would be an understatement. The former Huawei sub-brand rose up from the smog of the Huawei US ban and got on track releasing phones with Google Mobile Services (GMS) once again. The Honor 50 series came first followed by the flagship Magic 3 series shortly after. The Magic 3 Pro+ in particular brought arguably the most impressive spec sheet of any Android flagship this year though, like the rest of the Magic 3 series, it remained exclusive to China.
Winners and Losers: Honor
Honor continued to deliver on the laptop front with excellent offerings with new AMD Ryzen and Intel CPUs offering solid performance, ample battery life and pricing that’s undercutting established competitors. The wearables segment stayed on course with solid TWS buds like the Earbuds 2 Lite and the excellent Honor Band 6 impressed us too.
Winner: GMS returns to Honor phones
After Huawei sold off Honor in November of 2020, the now independent brand managed to get on track and obtain a Google Mobile Services license. This was confirmed back in June and sure enough, the Honor 50 series announced later that month was the first time in over two years since we got new Honor phones with Google apps out the box.
Winner: Honor 50 series
Honor’s first phones back with GMS and 5G connectivity alongside some lucrative specs. In our own Honor 50 review we liked its bright 120Hz OLED display, dependable battery life and solid camera and video prowess. The more impressive Pro model has a larger display, dual selfie cameras and blazing fast 100W wired charging but it did not make its way outside of China yet.
The Honor 50 series also proved quite popular in China. They helped the company to a drastic rebound in China with a 36% increase in sales between June and July. More importantly, they sent a clear message to the rest of the smartphone world – Honor is back.
Winner: MagicBook laptops
While its Android phone release cycle was not the most varied on the international scene, Honor’s laptop game continued to excel. In our own reviews of the MagicBook Pro and MagicBook 14 we found that both laptops strike a fine balance between performance, price and portability.
MagicBook Pro in particular impressed us with its bright 16.1-inch screen and excellent contrast. The onboard 16GB RAM and 512GB SSD were more than sufficient for the price and the discrete GeForce MX350 GPU handled its own in modern games.
While not the most powerful out there, Intel’s 10th gen Intel Core i5 processor delivered respectable results in our benchmark tests. MagicBook 14 delivered newer 11-gen Intel i5/i7 chipsets, good port selection and a decent 56W battery which we found to be enough juice for most use cases.
While there was winners, there were some losers too, may be it was specifically for Global Market, however, its worth to mention the Losers: Honor 60, HONOR Magic3 series.
What do you think about HONOR in 2021 and expected from HONOR in 2022?
