[Honor 6X Real Life Review] gordesky1:
Just got mine last night and so far im loving it! Runs super smooth freedompop also works on it after you put the settings in, Also it games great which i tried a game called crusader of light and it runs pretty smooth even on the highest settings which it does have little stutter sometimes very rare tho but pretty sure its just the server lag. My htc droid dna was pretty much always low on fps on that game even on the lowest settings... Game is hard too run tho.

Battery is so far great i got the phone around 5pm and mostly been gaming on it and its 6:22 am now and still has 30% lol..

And yep i tested the headphones which what dazed said and they are a bit on the low side compare too other phones like my htc droid dna but its really not that bad but can be bad with people that like there music playing loud. I say its about 15 too 20% lower than my dna which does have a good sound chip in it which was pretty known in the dna.

I tried my headphones in Bluetooth mode which are zinsoko z-h01s and its louder lol

There is a fix well kinda. You can just get one of those mini clip amps which will make it alot louder if you dont mind carrying a small clip amp around with it. Going too see how it is when i find mine.

And just one small issue which i don't like much is the speaker grill which can be easy fully blocked when holding it in landscape lol.

But other than that 2 issues a great device and well worth the money i paid which was 150$!
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] fc3211:
I agree the headphone volume is way too low, even with BeyerDynamics $200 headphones, its not loud enough.

And I just cant understand it. I even installed Viper4Android and its still not as loud at my Moto G4 Play which was a $40 phone.

Absolutely pathetic that even with Root this god-damned phone is so locked down by Emui that I cant even change the date that my cell phone data resets.

I am finally motivated to install a custom Rom, I cant live with this low volume. Its senseless to have such a nice camera paired with such garbage DAC , its like wearing a Tuxedo with a pair of disgusting old sneakers

[Honor 6X Real Life Review] XDARoni:
While this isn't my favorite phone from Honor, it was one of the only Honor phones released with a snapdragon chipset. For that, it gets some points, but overall not a great phone.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] DJRepresent:
I will never buy another Huawei product. They made this thing such a pain in the ass to restore back to factory settings that I regret purchasing one in the first place. I finally had to change the DNS settings on my router to get the factory eRecovery to work. Why couldn't they have made this more clear? And the incompetent tech support agents that couldn't tell me this either made my experience with them all that much more worse.

I finally got the f-ing thing to restore but will never buy from a company that makes it overly difficult to use and customize this much of a problem. There are plenty of competitors out there offering better products and I regret ever coming across this company.

You're a power user. Can the Honor 6X keep up? Rate this thread to express how "healthy" the development scene is for the Honor 6X. A higher rating indicates available root methods, kernels, and custom ROMs.

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] CronaMell:
Waiting for the partnership to make effect
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] jkccl9:
slow development for roms
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] jerryhou85:
Maybe in 3 or 4 months...
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] fix-this!:
there won't be a partnership. they never 'honor' it.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] krispy321:
Kirin ruins the devlpmnt
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] thilak devraj:
better not to expect anything..

im not saying that there wont be any development, but there will be much less ,when compared to snapdragon chips,

and yeah, we know the xda-honor partnership, i hope they might release sources.. lets see what happens.. but no hopes..
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] siggey:
still no roms.....
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] Coolyou:
It's way too early for development. This is relatively a new phone + there are always problems with Kirin.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] krispy321:
Anyways lets hope the best:D
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] fix-this!:
the US version is new. the other has been out since october. dont expect any custom roms on this. the devs stay away from it and they never produce proper source. thats why I stick to google phones from here on out.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] cabeni:
slow development for roms..
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] zempirian:
For a stable daily driver it will take another 4 to 5 month's, until than I am getting used to emui.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] Sreekantt:
Is xda-huawei patnership real?.. When it will take effect
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] siggey:
after some months, I can say that the community development strength is........ zero. no roms, no mods, only a recovery. never again for me.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] nigi73:
So far 3 stars, average. Hmm. In my opinion it is one. Maybe some people voted with a hope of future possible development, but it's like a Nobel prize for Obama. Too early and not deserved. Let's hope that it will not end as bad.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] adriansticoid:
[MENTION=7942738]Rox_Honor[/MENTION], how about Huawei release the kernel source code for 6X? Or how about you guys release all the source codes for all of your phones. Developers will be happy, users will be happy, you will be happy. Everybody happy.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] venom007:
lets hope with time we will get healthy development
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
Until sources will keep to be missing, the development is limited
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] adriansticoid:
I dream of a place where this crap problem doesn't exist.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] thilak devraj:
haha :D , get a snapdragon , then

i dont know why brands do not release their sources,

snapdragin does it , and that is one of the major reasons why snapdragon is a leading chip now ..
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] adriansticoid:
It shouldn't be just Snapdragon. This will change im the future. I know.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] thilak devraj:
doesn't seems to be changing anytime soon for me,

have a look at samsung, they have their Exynos from years, and they haven't yet released sources
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] adriansticoid:
Well future is dynamic. It can be tomorrow, next month, next year and so on.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] thilak devraj:
hahaha:D it can be tomorow or anything, but not anything sooner tho:)
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] adriansticoid:
That's the only true thing. :)
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
More than agree with you thilak, HiSilicon should watch and learn from Qualcomm.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] thilak devraj:
yes, they should watch and learn,

but i think , they improving, they are releasing sources
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] adriansticoid:
They really do. :D
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
Didn't understood, have they released them or something related?
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] adriansticoid:
For 6X, not yet.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] thilak devraj:
yeah, they have released , for 8 pro, i think
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] adriansticoid:
Yes Honor 8 Pro sources is released.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] adriansticoid:
Users should request hard enough and they will release it.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] adriansticoid:
Of course it will.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] felix-development:
i hope for lineage 14 soon
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] sniperlife:D:
I heard the source for kernel is released. I hope to see stable roms in the future.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
Yes they've been released more than a month ago :) we're all waiting stable ROMs by what i can see!
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] sniperlife:D:
Android O maybe. :laugh:
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
Not so good as of now. Only 3 custom on Nougat, one stock based custom, 2 custom MM. Not much development due to kirin.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] hassanjavaid8181:
Not good coz of kirin.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] narshi shukla:
Not so good

This is not a device development friendly

Very few development happened

Really disappointed
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] chrisleLP:
Can't compare it to Snapdragon phones. Development is there, not that strong, but it's there.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] alimir98:
hoping it will geared up with oreo.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] itisiryan:
Weak development.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] Amirk365:
Really weak development.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] AidenSurvival:
Couldn't agree more. I don't like devs that make roms and ditch them. What's the point in moving away from stock?
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
But now we have bunch of ROMs that you can try and they are being updated regularly
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] davis the droid:
Agreed! It doesn't bother me if one person can manage multiple ROMs, but it kinda dilutes the quality...
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] AidenSurvival:
Most are made by one freakin' guy. And when you make too much ROMs as a single developer, quality suffers.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] XDARoni:
Development is about as good as can be expected for an Honor phone. The 6X came out while bootloaders were still being unlocked, and the snapdragon chipset makes it for developer friendly than kirin powered devices.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
Snapdragon chipset..? That is the Honor 5X, the 6X runs on a Kirin 655, an overclocked Kirin 650 chipset. It'd be much better to have a Snapdragon SoC though.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] XDA_RealLifeReview:
Would you say that the Honor 6X is "fast" in day-to-day use? A higher rating indicates that you think the Honor 6X exhibits fantastic performance. Like, is it as fast as your tears when you watch The Titanic?

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
To me the task switching goes on without a lag between various kind of apps like mail clients, game emulators and internet browsing. The only one I've seen it's related to Nova Launcher's app drawer, but can be avoided setting Nova velocity options down by a couple of levels
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] venugopalu007:
Don't post like this , it cannot be understood to OP
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] venugopalu007:
it okey bro :highfive: first time
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] venugopalu007:
:eek::eek:

Sorry
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] derausgewanderte:
I just purchased it from Amazon at $199. My current phone is a Moto G4 plus. I am plesently surprised with the speed even with multiple apps open. I'm not a gamer. It opens many apps faster than my G4.

So far I'm impressed. Big improvement over the honor 5X which I owned in the past.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] venugopalu007:
great deal ,enjoy the phone
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] jordi-chant:
In day to day usage I have never experienced any lag or stuttering. Multitasking is also great. This is incredible considering its price.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] AtaliaKetch:
My friend was kind enough to let me borrow his 6X for a review. Regarding speed, faster than 5X. I loved it because at such minimal price, it should not be overlooked.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] Vivek4kumar:
Honor 6 x is Way better then redmo note 4, don't know why redmi note 4 has got this much popularity
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] venugopalu007:
Probably due to bigger battery , active development , more variants, Miui.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] sniperlife:D:
Overall this phone's speed is a nice replacement for 5x.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] venugopalu007:
But Snapdragon has lot of development

But open Kirin does the best. Love -Openkirin team.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] sniperlife:D:
This is overall speed thread, not community development.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] venugopalu007:
:silly: understood. My typo.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] sniperlife:D:
That's okay.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
No complaint whatsoever. Doesn't lag and still doing well after 10 months of usage.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] hassanjavaid8181:
Running well in nouget.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] narshi shukla:
It it well behind the competition

Kirin soc is power efficient but it comes at the cost of performance

I face lags(i doubt emui for this) performance is snappy for most part but i am really unhappy with emui as it don't take full benefit of hardware

SD 625 gets 60 70 some people even achieving 80k but this phone just around 50k

So there is noticeable drop in performance compare to mi phones or sd 650/625 powered devices
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] chrisleLP:
Blazing awesome for this midrange device.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] alimir98:
running very well..its fast
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] itisiryan:
Overall speed is more than enough.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] XDARoni:
As far as speed goes, it's just alright. My Honor 6X freezes up from time to time when handling too much stuff.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] XDA_RealLifeReview:
OMG! Kim K posted another selfie with tons of cleavage! Rate this thread to express how quickly apps launch on the Honor 6X. A higher rating indicates that even the most intensive apps launch quickly and without hesitation, even if they are no longer in RAM.

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
2-3 seconds maximum for heaviest apps
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] adriansticoid:
NBA 2K17 takes about 15 secs to load a game.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] adriansticoid:
Yes of course.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] jordi-chant:
Apps launch fast, just a little bit slower than my Redmi Note 3
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] AtaliaKetch:
On average, apps launch in about 2.3 +-0.3 seconds. Pretty nice numbers for this phone.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] derausgewanderte:
I have both a Moto G4 Plus and the 6X and the 6X beats the Moto G4 Plus in almost every app launch. I'm not playing games. There are apps that take a few seconds on the Moto G4 and they open almost in half the time on the 6X. So far I'm impressed.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] joe2k01:
What about real racing?
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] sniperlife:D:
Slightly impressive as it beats other phones for it's price range.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
Very good but few takes time.

When in ram they launched very fast but EMUI kills most of them in background
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] hassanjavaid8181:
It's great.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
Has improved on EMUI 5 for sure
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] adriansticoid:
Very evident.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] narshi shukla:
Emui is not that much optimized but app launch speed is good except some app takes time
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] chrisleLP:
Launch speed is way better than my previous phone. :D
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] alimir98:
impressive speed..but having a low ram issue from past few days
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] itisiryan:
Apps launch very quick.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] XDARoni:
Apps launch nice and fast on the Honor 6X.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] XDA_RealLifeReview:

[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
At the moment i didn't faced ram problems yet, usually with nothing working, i had 2GB of ram free when i was on Marshmallow. After the Nougat update and various optimization settings, things are even better; my free ram is always on 2,25GB until i launch something
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] thilak devraj:
ram management is better than i expected, im impressed actually
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] siggey:
Do you guys take money or gift from Huawei? In all this real life threads there are the same guys talking about how great is this phone. That is not so great.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
No, dood, i (like others) don't get money or either gifts as a reward just for doing something that thread itself suggests, reason for i invite you to read better OP. Let's say that I've felt more than free to express my opinion about the thread object, like other users that owns this phone i suppose, since that I'm enjoying this phone especially for how much i payed it, giving me highly performances with no need to spend like a flagship or something similar, i'd NEVER buy a phone that costs more than 200€. Let me understand so; you have something wrong about this phone that doesn't let ya enjoy it, and so seeing people happy with it simply discussing about various aspects and capabilities of the phone bore ya, or let you even think that Huawei could have hired people to promote their phones on XDA? :eek:

Remember that if there was something wrong talking about a phone in this manner, a moderator would already told us something since that it's surely a moderator responsibility to do that... Relax guy, enjoy something too!
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] siggey:
In the last line we can see that roomco05 win a great honor coupon for his activity on this forum. Legit, but his opinion is the truth?
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] siggey:
I think that the result of this giveaway from xda is that this phone has no active development but a lot of chit chat from people interested only in rewards. And a lot of thread are alive when no one is really involved in this phone. And this criticism is not directed to you, but in general at the sponsored direction that xda take.

Two people from the list of winners write constantly speaking good about this phone in this threads, you and thilak debraj.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] Av169:
Hi, Honor King are you using a 3GB ram variant or a 4GB ram variant?? & can you tell me is 3GB ram will be sufficient for medium uses??
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] Av169:
Why you sold your Honor 6X,, is there any prob?

& I will use my phone mainly for reading ebooks,, browsing,, youtube videos streaming, calling & photography, I am not a gamer? so which will be right choice for me 3GB or 4GB? & which will be good for long run as I don't change my phone frequently..
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] Av169:
In India 3GB ram variant is selling in 11999 indian rupees or 187 USD & 4GB ram variant is for 13999 indian rupees or 218 USD
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
Why don't ya make a jump on roms section to take a look at how developers are working now, while you stay there convinced that this phone has no active dev? Oh yeah, "you think" that this giveaway from xda is only blabla...
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] Av169:
Don't worry I am an occasional ebook reader so I can manage with it,,
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] AtaliaKetch:
Oh yea! 3GB RAM is the sweet spot for phones at this price tag. Enough for heavy apps.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] siggey:
You are right, now there is some not working ROMs in the development thread... That's the sign of high support to the community by Huawei!
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
This is so disappointing... You are just insatiable. Learn how to avoid to spitting on other people's work, because this is what you're doing. Kernel sources for Honor 6X has been released less than a month ago, the OpenKirin team of developers posted 3 different custom roms almost immediately in the same week, and you are still there blabbing with sarcasm? First of all, the roms aren't just "not working", but they have some bugs related to Huawei hardware components that won't collaborate that easy with third party OS, and the point is a little bit different. Second, but not because less important, maybe you've forgot the fact that those developers are normal people that are working to these custom roms just FOR FREE, facing all the issues that you can encounter while you are trying to make an OS work correctly with phone's hardware. How can you expect perfect custom roms to came out in neither one month from the release of sources, since that there are phones with kernel sources released more than 3 years ago that still suffers other kind of bugs (like a correctly working GPS location?) Third, and last, since that after this I'd like to stop this useless discussion here; if you're that good on third party roms development... Well, why don't ya take the chance to contribute and help developers resolve those bugs? Perhaps for you it'll be easier than drink a cup of water! Or maybe you'll face the reality.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] siggey:
If you have read my post I speak about Huawei support to the development community, not about the developer's work. I have maximum respect for developers, but not for the Huawei philosophy. I was a day one honor 6x buyer, on January, because the phone was presented with a lot of support for development, but it was not true. Six months later we have the sources, but incomplete. A lot of bugs on stock rom, never solved. This are facts, not opinions.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] sniperlife:D:
3gb ram is enough for the fluidity of this baby.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
Works well and no lag whatsoever till date
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] hassanjavaid8181:
Multitasking is good.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] narshi shukla:
Much much better than other oem

In my mi max prime only 2gb ram was free despite having 4gb ram and when opening 10 12 apps in background just 600:700mb free ram

Asus zenfone was having 700 mb free out of 3gb

But this phone have 2gb free ram all time and when using apps 10 12 in background still around 1gb always free

(emui restrict and kill some apps in background)
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] chrisleLP:
3GB ks just enough for me. Enough to run HD games.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] alimir98:
ram management is good but could have been better.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] itisiryan:
Butter smooth multitasking. RAM is sufficient.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] Mimi-rose:
Hello everyone,so i have been reading a lot of comments that say the honor 6x is so good in ram management and it can keeps a lot of applications in the memory for a long time,while my honor 6x cant keep most of them even for a little while so honestly i am really confused why is this happening to me and whether its because of the nougat update or because somethimg else because i didn't tested before the update,and that has been bothering me a lot and i didn't know what to do to fix this problem and whether i am the only one facing this or is there any other people facing the same issue?i really hope if somone could help me,thank you.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
Only 20 apps can be active in RAM. Thats with any phone with emui. Multitasking is good in the sense you can switch to different apps quickly but they takes a second to relaunch and gets refreshed.

Example, if you're on chrome and Facebook or Twitter was used and never closed then you can switch quickly to them but it takes a second to gets refreshed as they are killed in background and didn't refresh. But you will get all the notification from app so its just they are not fully killed and just not refreshed but notification and other priorities stuff works.

Applicable to all honor Huawei phones with emui.
