Huawei Honor 6 review: Virtue in disguise

9 March 2015
High-performance hardware meets low-key design in the Huawei Honor 6, at a price that’s frankly hard to beat. In a market segment where budget matters, the Honor 6 is offering some top-of-the-range specs to raise itself above the crowd.

        Purchased this phone via flipkart in India. The phone become heated and switch off .Went to service center they kept the phone for 2 months than sent to the company Huawei .the phone is still with the company for 4 months . inspite calling several times ,mailing them several times with all the documents and purchase bill .Request to all readers these MNC cheats public and harrass common people once they spend their hard earned buying their products. I am forced to post such real facts so that others are not bullied by these big companies. Never ever think of buying huaewi products in my life again, will urge everyone to practice the same if you don't want to rub from pillar to post like I did

                              Bought the phone replacing Sony Z3 Compact due to damn irresponsible service of SonyMobile in Jordan.
                              The Honor6 is sleek, great performer, and appearantly with top of list battery life (a thing that matters to me most).

                              One note to gsmarena, the screen behalves normally while connected to charger, so may be it was in the review unit, not the line. (H06-L04 international variant)

                                      It's average phone. I used it. What they offer I doubt on its processors. It is very slow process I try it on every six. Or while use net it becomes very hot upto 50 or 60 degree temp. So u will in trouble where u use its long time your skin related issues became dangerous.

I did not experience issue 1-5, maybe you can try to do a factory reset or just apply for the warranty claim. However, I agreed that there should be an option to customize the lock screen's control center.
