HONOR has announced the upcoming release of the HONOR 400 Lite in Malaysia on April 25, 2025, marking the debut of the HONOR 400 Series in the country.
Building upon the success of its predecessor, this new smartphone boasts significant advancements in photography, battery performance, display quality, and integrated AI capabilities.
Positioned as a budget-friendly competitor to the iPhone, the HONOR 400 Lite introduces an innovative AI Button, a feature reminiscent of the anticipated camera button on the iPhone 16, but offered at a much more accessible price point.
The centerpiece of the HONOR 400 Lite’s intelligent design is its AI Button, which transcends basic photo and video capture functionalities.
This multifunctional button serves as a gateway to enhanced daily efficiency. With a simple press, users can access instant information retrieval, seamless work assistance, and real-time translation services powered by the integration of Google Lens and Google Gemini.
This innovative feature aims to transform the smartphone into a central hub for smarter and more convenient living, streamlining various tasks through intuitive AI interaction.
Specifically within photography, the AI Button introduces a revolutionary Camera Control function.
This feature eliminates the need to navigate on-screen controls, allowing users to effortlessly take photos, record videos, and adjust focus.
A simple slide gesture enables smooth zooming, while a quick tap ensures precise subject focusing. This intuitive control mechanism promises to enhance the user’s photographic experience, making capturing moments more seamless and efficient.
Beyond camera control, the AI Button integrates Smart Vision through Google Lens, transforming the HONOR 400 Lite’s camera into a powerful information tool.
In Search Mode, users can capture images of various objects, such as plants, animals, or landmarks, to instantly access relevant information.
For shopping, users can photograph items like handbags or shoes to find similar products online with pricing and purchase links.
Students can utilize Homework Mode to photograph academic questions in subjects like math, chemistry, or biology and receive step-by-step solutions. Furthermore, Translate Mode allows for real-time translation of foreign languages from menus, signs, or documents, effectively providing users with a portable tutor, shopping assistant, and travel companion.
The intelligent capabilities of the HONOR 400 Lite extend beyond the AI Button. A long press on the Power Button activates Google Gemini, functioning as a personal AI assistant designed to enhance productivity and creativity.
Additionally, the HONOR 400 Lite is equipped with other AI-powered features such as AI Eraser, AI Outpainting, Face-to-Face Translate, Magic Portal, and Google’s Circle to Search, bringing premium AI experiences to users in a stylish and compact device.
More details on this device will be made known on the launch date.
