The Honor 600 series debuts in China: iPhone Air-style design and giant battery!

The new Honor-branded series is capable of delivering great satisfaction, both in terms of design and in terms of the technical and photographic aspects. However, there is a twist: the range debuted in China and changes come with various differences both aesthetically and on the hardware side. Let’s discover the new Honor 600 Vitality, 600 Super and 600 Pro and what changes compared to the phones launched in our latitude!

Honor 600 Vitality, 600 Super and 600 Pro: what changes with the Chinese version of the series

The most striking difference concerns the design itself: our Honor 600 and 600 Pro eye the latest iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max, with a triple camera array inside a large rectangular island. There is even an orange color to emphasize the source of inspiration.

With Chinese phones, everything changes: Honor 600 Super and 600 Pro (launched in China) debut with a horizontally oriented capsule camera look similar to the iPhone Air. It isn’t a first time for the brand: already Honor 500 and 500 Pro (unreleased globally) presented a similar aesthetic.

In addition there are exclusive colorways for the Chinese market: the classic Black shade is complemented by Green Apple and the stunning variants Light Feather Blue (with lines drawing the shapes of a feather) and Lucky Star, the latter with a white-pink shell with light play and reflections inspired by the stars.

Finally there is Honor 600 Vitality, a device that presents a look identical to our base Honor 600: there are the photo sensors and the LED flash, inside a rectangular module occupying the upper part of the chassis. There is even an orange shade, just like the phone launched in Italy.
