Meet the one phone created exclusively for millennials
Want to know how typical brands make smartphones for millennials? They build a phone that's good for everyone, and then tell millennials to buy it. That's it. Nothing special.
But the major flaw in that philosophy is that it ignores the one thing that millennials hold most dear: Individuality.
Millennials don't want some one-size-fits-all, good-enough-for-anyone kind of phone. Instead, they want something that represents who they are and fits their lifestyle.
Making a phone for the digital generation isn't about hyping-up random improvements that anyone would love — it's about listening to what millennials actually want, paying attention to the role their phones play in their lives and delivering tailored features that create real value.
Well, at long last, adventurous, super-sharing millennials have a phone they can truly call their own.
Introducing: The Honor 8.
Unlike anything you've ever seen
Inspired by Honor's mantra, "For the brave," the new, millennial-minded smartphone provides the necessary components for a life spent exploring.
Camera: The main event is a 12-megapixel dual-lens camera that's perfect for the photo-happy adventurer and social media influencer. The innovative dual-lens design affords even casual photographers the ability to produce pro-grade shots. Using dynamic focus technology, the Honor 8 takes photos with more depth, clarity and chromatic range, resulting in eye-catching stills.
And for the more visually gifted, the Honor 8 comes packed with professional shooting and editing modes that can increase the quality of the shots you take — and allow you to tease-out the perfect moment after the fact. Taking advantage of the Dual ISP and Hybrid Autofocus features, photos taken with the Honor 8 can be refocused while editing, so the ideal depth is always achieved.
All in all, sharing photos will never be the same after you've experienced the dual-lens difference on the Honor 8.
Design: Millennials don't follow the crowd — they challenge the status quo, and seek out things that can make them different. That's why the Honor 8's design is a huge departure from the norm, featuring an all-glass body that's smooth to the touch and a far cry from the aluminum standard in the smartphone world. Aesthetics alone are enough to distinguish the Honor 8 from the crowd, but the new phone is purpose-built as well.
The Honor 8 boasts an ultra-fast fingerprint reader for easy unlocking, and comes equipped with NFC functionality for speedy, on-the-go transactions and data transfers. What's more, the phone was constructed with the environment in mind, notching platinum rating for sustainability. Taken together, these features provide a level of usability and social consciousness that are a perfect fit for millennial values.
Battery: The connected generation is plagued by battery limitations. Whereas the millennial dream involves untethered globe-trotting and unlimited cultural consumption, the reality has more defined boundaries — chaining our romantic adventurers to power outlet until they receive the requisite power to proceed.
The Honor 8 packs a 3,000 mAh battery, capable of 10 hours of offline video streaming, or 1.77 days of normal usage. In addition, the phone offers quick-charging, which can give users 47 percent battery life in just 30 minutes on the cord.
The Honor 8's battery provides millennials with a full day of non-stop adventure.
Performance: When the rubber finally meets the road, millennials need a phone that can keep up with their digital lives. The internet needs to be browsed, messages need to be sent, updates need to be posted, and any hiccups in the process cannot be tolerated.
The Honor 8 excels when it comes to daily performance, placing emphasis on the activities that millennials value the most. At the heart of the phone is a 2.3 GHz octa-core processor that keeps apps running smoothly, even when several are operating at once — and all of that activity is then brilliantly displayed on the phone's awe-inspiring, 5.2-inch 1080P FHD screen.
Add-in dynamic noise cancelling technology for crisp call clarity, as well as an integrated speaker system for high-quality music playback, and it's easy to see that the Honor 8 can hang with even the most demanding millennial lifestyles.
How to stop settling for an "everyone" phone
The Honor 8 isn't just a phone that millennials can enjoy — it's a phone that was wholeheartedly built to give millennials exactly what they need in a smartphone. Combining best-in-class performance, gorgeous design, all-day battery life and an innovative dual-lens camera system, the Honor 8 is a true partner for adventurers everywhere.
