Honor 6X review: Amped up

27 January 2017
As more and more people buy smartphones online, the budget segment is becoming increasingly popular as consumers flock to buy smartphones through online retailers or brick-and-mortar stores like Best Buy. Last year, Honor's 5X was met with much acclaim; it offered value-added features for a price that didn’t break the bank.

        For people who underestimate Chinese phone, use this brand and compare with what you have, this brand is titan class like Samsung, Apple, Sony, LG, Motorola, Old Nokia, and so. I'm a tester, I m impressed with their phone quality.

            Huawei is so good...

            Many will shout about its s/w, some will call it Chinese, even I am anti-China but, HUAWEI makes seriously great phones. Probably the best ones.

                I've been used many android phones, such as SAMSUNG, HTC , ASUS and LENEVO. honestly, I used to be the one who hate the "HUAWEI" brandname because its reflected me the Image of chinese bad quality products but finally I have decided to bought the P9 last year and it's just changed my mind at all. And I am here to tell everyone that I really love Huawei a lot because almost one year past my phone still run smoother compared to the bad experience that I have experienced with my old Samsung Galaxy S6 because after I have bought it 6 months my phone got problems, The screen was showed samsung's logo and I couldn't turn on or turn off. Sometimes when I was using the facebook application I couldn't press the home button to leave the application or turn off to restart the phone. So, I'm going to tell you here that "Don't judge the phone by its brand or its prices or you can't expect the highest satisfaction when you bought the High-end phone with expensive price, And the specification or the ANTUTU application didn't prove the real performance that one phone had itself."

                  >and the chipset is only a minor upgrade

                  Not at all.

                              It would be great if users can turn on and turn off Health app as we needed. It counted my steps from day one when I set this app.

                                The first thing I look at when buying a phone is the camera. It's great for the price but companies should really focus on improving the main rear camera rather than wasting money on gimmicky secondary lens and high megapixel front cameras. A better sensor on the back camera would have been way more useful in practically all situations.

                                    i think they should compared it with redmi pro too, because its in the mid-low price range with dual camera configuration. maybe they forgot it. or maybe because redmi pro arent available there - yet(pfft). laughing in asian language.
