Competition in the mid-high-end smartphone segment is increasingly fierce, forcing manufacturers to not only compete in configuration but also create different values. With Honor 400, that difference is the AI system that is invested in thoroughly, has depth and is even richer than some flagship models on the market.
Minimalist yet elegant design on Honor 400
The Honor 400 offers a minimalist yet attractive overall design. With a slightly matte ivory white back, the device feels elegant and modern, especially when the light reflects on the large pill-shaped camera cluster placed in the left corner. Details such as the skillfully curved edges between the back and the metal frame are precisely processed, creating a seamless and comfortable feeling when held in the hand.
The square, flat frame is in line with current trends but still maintains balance thanks to its reasonable thickness and light weight. When used in practice, the device feels sturdy and non-slip, and is not too heavy when used for a long time.

The front of the device uses a 6.55-inch OLED screen, 1,224 x 2,700 pixel resolution, supporting a 120 Hz refresh rate. The screen border is optimized to be quite thin, especially the bottom edge is almost not too different from the other three edges. When used in strong light conditions, the screen performs well thanks to a maximum brightness of up to 5,000 nits. Wide viewing angle, vivid and realistic colors. In addition, the device is also equipped with an eye protection mode with Eye Comfort certification, helping to reduce eye strain when used for a long time.
Camera: Versatile, detailed, and powerful AI processing
Honor 400 owns a remarkable camera system with a 200 MP main sensor, combined with powerful AI image processing, providing a comprehensive photography experience in many different contexts.
In daylight conditions, the camera records images with high detail, bright colors and a wide contrast range. Street and architectural shots show good reproduction of sky colors, dark areas and details such as signs and vehicles, without overexposure or loss of detail in shaded areas. Wide-angle shots maintain clear composition and have little distortion at the edges of the frame.

When shooting at night or in low-light environments, the main camera still maintains stable quality. AI intervenes effectively to help reduce noise in photos, control brightness, and keep details such as signs, street lights, or raindrops clear. Some slow-motion shots require a steady hand, but overall, the sharpness is still guaranteed for normal use.

Portrait mode is also a strong point with the Harcourt Portrait feature that simulates studio lighting, creating good depth and natural background blur. The subject is clearly separated from the background without appearing fake edges. Skin color remains neutral, not overdone like many devices in the segment.

In addition, Honor 400 has the ability to take close-up shots quite well, clearly showing the surface texture of small objects, and accurately controlling the background blur. When zooming digitally, AI supports effective focus, images at long focal lengths are still clear in detail, less flat and no distortion - especially suitable for taking pictures of signs, architecture or objects at large distances.

Overall, the Honor 400's camera system exceeds expectations at its price point, meeting a variety of shooting needs from capturing everyday life, creating macro photos to long-range zoom or artistic portraits.
Balanced performance, smooth software and long battery life
The Honor 400 uses the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 processor – a popular choice in the mid-range and high-end segment, combined with 8 GB RAM (or 12 GB option) and 256/512 GB internal memory. This configuration is powerful enough to handle everyday tasks, photo editing, light gaming and use the accompanying AI features.
Honor 400 uses MagicOS 8 based on Android 14, with a suitable configuration for daily use as well as AI experience on smartphones.

Battery life is one of the highlights: the 5,300 mAh battery provides about 1.5 days of real-world use with mixed usage. Silicon-carbon battery technology increases energy density without increasing the size of the device. The device supports 66 W fast charging via USB-C, charging about 70% of the battery in 25 minutes – enough for a full day of continuous use.
Honor 400 runs MagicOS 8 on Android 14, the interface is friendly, lightweight, easy to get used to and has many customizations. The software system also supports deeply integrated AI features such as real-time text translation, image content recognition or performance optimization. The response speed is stable, with little delay when opening applications or switching tasks, even when running multitasking.
Overview
The Honor 400 doesn’t try to be a miniature flagship phone, but rather positions itself as a complete entry-level smartphone experience: beautiful, smart, and long-lasting. With a quality screen, powerful camera, advanced AI, and long battery life, it’s a solid choice for users looking for a stable device that can last for 2–3 years without having to replace it in the middle.
