Honor 7A scores more in the essential virtues that satisfy in everyday life, rather than in features that are good for marketing but only rarely used.

Expert Reviews | Tom Bruce

...a master at producing budget smartphones that you'd actually want to buy and, with the 7A, it has gone one step further by edging out the low-end handset competition in key areas such as display and performance... the best value smartphone yet from the Huawei subsidiary. Our recommendation would be to save a few pennies more and go for the slightly more capable Moto G6 Play or Moto G6. They're more expensive than the Honor 7A but worth the extra money for the camera alone.

Honor 7A is in line with most budget offerings in the market and it comes with dual rear cameras, which is a plus. However, the phone misses out on performance, which is a crucial factor for me while choosing a good phone.

GadgetSpeak | Paul Smart

While it is never going to be as feature packed as their top of the line offerings if the camera is not required to capture moving images using flash and you can put up with a continually dirty screen then this could be for you.

It's just too slow. And the Moto G6 Play is so much better.

Trusted Reviews | Jon Mundy

The Honor 7A simply doesn't provide enough of an improvement over its predecessor, let alone a credible alternative to its entry-level rivals.

We'd suggest you save your pennies and fork out the extra cash for a more worthwhile and long-term smartphone choice.
