Late last year, Honor showed off their Honor 5X smartphone and since then, the phone have been launched in several countries including the United States. Building upon that, today the company is showing off the Honor 6X which is the successor to the 5X and the new device improves upon everything that made the Honor 5X stand out.

Huawei Honor 6X Key Specifications

— 5.5-inch 1080P IPS LCD display
— HiSilicon Kirin 655 SoC
— 3/4GB RAM
— 32/64GB expandable memory
— 12MP + 2MP  rear camera
— 8MP front camera
— Android 6.0 Marshamllow with EMUI 4.1
— 3,340mAh battery
— 150.9 x 72.6 x 8.2mm
— 162g
— Dual SIM LTE

On the back of the device, the Honor 6X still comes with a fingerprint sensor but the company is bucking up the camera trend by including a second 2MP camera alongside the main 12MP camera. The Honor 6X also comes with up to 4GB of RAM and amazingly, Honor managed to pack a 3,340mAh battery into the Honor 6X.

But this is a budget friendly device after all so there is some compromises being made. For one, the Honor 6X still uses a microUSB port opposed to a USB C port and the software is still based on Android 6.0 Marshmallow.

Honor will begin selling the Honor 6X in China next week (October 25) for CN¥ 999 (~US$ 149 / ~MYR 622) for the base model with 3GB RAM and 32GB memory and the price goes up to CN¥ 1,599 (~US$ 240 / ~MYR 995) for the 4GB RAM and 64GB memory model. Expect to see the Honor 6X launch in Malaysia in the near future
