Huawei Honor 8X User Reviews

Power Packed Phone!! 5.0 stars
As it's Name says 'Xtraordinary'. It is built to be the best in it's price range. Camera issues can be fixed but everything else is designed to last long. The EMUI is wonderful with so many customizations options. No lags. Honor has done a very good job in making the design of phone look premium and with its 6.5" screen size giving way to 91% screen to body ratio.
The processor Kirin 710 is a very powerful in its price segment. No heating issues. Battery is powerful enough to use. Honor hasn't compromised upon any thing. They have given the best possible phone in this price range.
A must purchase phone!! Hat's off to Honor!!!!!

Beast @ 16k (*With HDFC Offer*) / 6GB + 64GB - Black 4.0 stars
Well, This review is after 4 Days of Usage.

**First of all, I would say my whole family is Honor bound since it's Launch. We've been using Honor 2, Honor Holly, Honor Bee, Honor 6x & now Honor 8x.

** Why Honor phones throughout?
- Still our first phone Honor 2 is working and it's been nearly 6.5 years. So that should suffice I guess.

**And Why Honor 8x and not any other phone in the market (Oppo F9 Pro / Vivo V11 / Realme 2 Pro / POCO etc.)
- 1. Trust & Brand of Huawei - Most of the above mentioned names are new entrants in the Telecom industry & Huawei has been there for nearly 4+ decades
- 2. Pricing for the 6GB Variant (My budget was always 15k-17k; Nowadays, Mobilephone market functions like a Use & Throw - The Sellers are keeping us occupied with added features in every launch - almost like every month - So always a budget performer with reliable quality gets a thumbs up from me)
- 3. Looks & Durability of Honor 8x when compared to the other models mentioned above.

**How is the performance ?

- UI - (5/5)
EMUI is one of the best UIs available in the market next to the iPhones. I bet you no other phones has a better UI on offer other than Honor - Be it (ColorOS from OPPO / JOVI AI Asst. -Vivo / MIUI - of Xiaomi )

- CAMERA -
This is where I feel 8x is a bit let down. Yes! The Selfie cam is not at par with Oppo F9 Pro but comparing a 25MP Cam variant with 16 MP would just be a sin + Add 10k extra price to that of Oppo F9 Pro.
But still, Huawei could have bumped up the Selfie Cam to 20/25 MP for an extra price of 2k.
-- 20 MP AI Dual Camera is just a pure delight ! Corner/Edge Correction is good & Bokeh is okayish.
Night Mode is very good for the 20MP AI Camera the Huawei has offered. So that kind of equalizes the low of front cam !
(*I would any day switch my Honor 6x cam for this 8x)

Hence: 3/5

- USAGE & ISSUES -

- This is the part I love with Huawei (Their Own KIRIN Processors) - Absolutely no problems in switching between the apps, Works like a swish ! (*Better than the Snapdragons available in market*)
- No Heating issues on playing games for at the least 45-50 min continuously (*Only my hands get numb -lol*)
- Huawei Cloud Storage is a smart feature to have.
- Fingerprint is 5/5 any day.
- Face Unlock : 4/5

So on Usage + Processor - 5/5 for all the loaded features it comes with for a price @ 16k. - Just unbelievable.

- CHARGING - (4/5)
*No fast charging but it takes 2 hours to charge from 2% to 85% (*Impressive according o me)

- SPEAKERS - (4.5/5)
Honor has finally listened to it's subscribers Honor 6x, 7x 7c, Play all lacked a bit in Speakers output & Wow, they have increased the output considerably in this one. So a big Thanks! (*Without compromising on the quality)

So OVERALL -(4/5)

After my usage I would definitely recommend this phone for people who are budget oriented (like me) but at the same time want a Trustable brand + 6 Gigs of RAM - I bet there is no other phone available to swoop other than this HONOR 8X.

Yes, Front Cam is a big let down, so for the ones who say, "Boss! I am gonna keep showing my face 24*7 infront of my mobile and keep showing that to my followers across the globe & I can shell out 10-15k extra for the same" - Then this is definitely not your cup of tea !

Memory card issue 1.0 stars
Product is good in the view of camera and all the features. Dual volte is the ultimate feature.

But the phone is unable to access the memory card, when you set the default storage as memory card, even if you take the 05 sec video also, phone is unable to store the data to memory card and with in seconds the device is going into blank condition.

I can clearly say that, that is not the memory card problem, because the same memory card is getting good access and good functioning in other mobiles.

So, after knowing this i formatted my memory card and tried take store the another video file by setting the storage as default location memory,but again it is showing the same blank condition.

Disappointed due to direct storage issue

do not purchase honor 8x 1.0 stars
major issues with Honor 8x are:-
1) Sim card slot 2 is having a issue/faulty, cellular network reception is very low on sim card slot 2 / secondary sim card. Everyone purchased this mobile, do the blancco app testing for sim slot diagnostics.
2) Network data speed is very slow compared to other mobiles.
3) Poor screen quality, low resolution, It does not look actually a Full HD+ display viewing experience.
4) Speaker sound is very low.
