Increase in GPU performance

The Honor 5c is powered by the all-new 16nm Kirin 650 chipset. Previously only found in flagship devices, it’s the first smartphone under RM1000 to use a 16nm chipset, instead of the 28nm or 20nm ones in previous generations. This means more power is packed into the same slim package, delivering a 65% increase in performance.
Immerse yourself in games with a 100% increase in GPU performance, thanks to the powerful Mali-T830 GPU. And above all, enjoy a smoother user experience with the rapid eMMC 5.1–based flash memory chip, and all-new EMUI 4.1 OS.

BATTERY LIFE THAT KEEPS UP

The Honor 5c keeps you powered through the day with a 3000 mAh capacity battery. The 16nm Kirin 650 chipset also decreases power consumption by 40%*, so you never have to sacrifice performance for battery life. Go 1.34 days* on a single charge (heavy usage), thanks to Android 6.0’s Doze Mode and Huawei’s SmartPower 3.0 power-saving technology.
