No, just in the threads where the same people speak about how great is this honor phone
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
You don't have nothing else to do on this forum?
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] nitheeshas:
This phone is good only on the inside. The build quality is s#!t. Never expect it to withstand any falls without a case/cover on. The back metal is not strong either. It bends with little force too.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] Vivek4kumar:
I like Honor 6x very much for its build quality and network reception quality. Battery backup is soo good.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] sniperlife:D:
Feels pretty premium. I like the metal finish.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
definitely a good one apart from the screen. No Gorilla GLass makes it vulnerable to break if falls from certain heights. YOu need to carry a case or handle with care. I dont like using any cover on my phone and using this since 10 months and been careful enough to avoid any scratches till date. Once fell down and got small scratch but that is not even visible to others and as I use my phone daily I know what is there on it :)

but seems apart from screen quality, other things are fine.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] hassanjavaid8181:
Uni body design gives premium look.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] iceepyon:
I am honestly quite disappointed with the build quality of this device. As you can easily pop out the display from the frame.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
And no Gorilla glass is also a drawback here
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
More than agree... 2 days ago my phone dropped on the floor by the side of the display, completely flat. Luckily i had a tempered glass protector on the display, because even if i have a cover that prevents the display to touch the floor, the temepered glass just fragmented with a huge breach from left to right. I'm more than sure that if i didn't applied that protector, today i would still being here smashing my head on a wall.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
My friend's 6X. Due to heavy object put on the phone in office by mistake.

It was inside wallet and someone may be kept his laptop bag and this is it... but she doesn't know (may be)
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
Ouch! Did he asked how much it'd cost to fix or substitute it?
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
Around 4K INR (65 USD)
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
Double ouch!
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
Hehe yeah and she has been using this since more than 3 months now in same condition, even we pull her legs amd tease a lot for this. ;)
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] iceepyon:
Well. It was a budget grade device. You wouldn't expect premium materials in a device in that range.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
Yeah I know but apart from screen.material they managed other things. Now a days even low budget phone has it. But rest all is very good
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] iceepyon:
Not really as the Honor 6X has a very poor build quality. You can easily pop the display out of the casing.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
Haven't tried this :(
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] iceepyon:
Check out this video from JerryRiggs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXhw0hLmqG0
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
Have seen in the past when device was launched. Many given negative comments about video..so we can not rely on this
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] iceepyon:
I honestly think that Jerry's test is pretty reliable with regards to device durability.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
No offense ro his video or effort but sometimeswe should rely on what we see and feel while using. And yeah fully agree on the screen part that its not the best and not protected
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] xdordinary:
Just bought new....will report back after use.

Just bought the Honor 6x due largely to it's dual-sim feature for my trip to Europe next month.

Also the 12x & 8x cameras were a plus..

As it was very affordable, I'm not expecting hi-end quality but expect it will fullfill my needs.

Plan to add suitable screen protection and durable case.

Will post back on my return as to how well it faired & any quality +'s or -'s.

Thanks to the other posters I'll probably pack along my trusty Galaxy S4 as a backup plan;)
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
Do check the screen guards in accessories section. Few posted there
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] narshi shukla:
Metal body is prone to scratches, so does screen glass

Need to use screen protection and case

But feels good in hand
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] chrisleLP:
Back panel is easily scratched. Good thing I got a soft case right away.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] alimir98:
not bad.glass would be better.. :D
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] itisiryan:
One drop and the side has dents.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] Nubwy:
Unless you bend the display on purpose there is no conceivable scenario where the device will flex and buckle as displayed in the video. If think that's a fair representation of build quality then go watch John Legere's video on the iPhone 6's "bendgate".
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] xdordinary:
Back from my journey and happy to report I'm quite impressed with this phone. I immediately fitted a semi-hard rubber case

and always use a leather belt pouch for my phones. Although I had bought a tempered glass screen protector, opted to go

with the factory screen protector and had no issues as far as touch response or scratching.

My Honor 6x came with Nougat installed. So far, received 3 updates without any glitches.

Using my provider's International plan to stay in touch with friends at home while in Europe, the call quality was excellent

....sometimes better than when at home. Likely that speaks more for the network than the phone.

When making calls from a crowded busy airport, the persons I spoke with said they heard no background noise even after

telling them where I was calling from. I think the Honor 6x gets the credit for that.

While I didn't use razor blades, hammers or drill presses to futher test this Honor 6x (yes I saw the video) I consider the overall

quality above average for a budget, dual-sim, unlocked phone. I paid $179+tax tho I see then now offered for around $149.

For me this is an upgrade from Galaxy S4, & Galaxy On5 phones. Not being a high end user, I find the Honor 6X to be a good fit.

Disclaimer: I represent no financial or connections other than my own wallet.

In my enthusiasm forgot to add the one drawback on this phone in my view,

namely the flimsy dual-sim/microsd tray. Use great care when installing or

changing a sim/microsd.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] hassanjavaid8181:
Really a great looking device with good build material..
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] XDARoni:
This phone has a decent feel to it. The screen is what feels the cheapest.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] XDA_RealLifeReview:
Please, no "that's what she said" jokes. Rate this thread to express how you think the Honor 6X feels in-hand. A higher rating indicates that it's comfortable to hold for long periods of time, even in one hand. Resist the urge to say "TWSS" just now. Seriously.

[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
Keeping in one hand prevents me to reach the opposite higher corner, and hard to reach the lowest too. Big displays are nice because permits to benefit of higher resolutions and better visibility, but have their vengeance on things like this :D
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
Usually it results slippery, so a cover is a must in my opinion both for keeping it protected and rough, especially to avoid a couple of really bad words with a final crash on da floor
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] Nollie8969:
This is my cover. Both sides are non slippery.

https://www.nillkin-case.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=5153
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
Yeah, a non slippery cover is this phone's best friend :D
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
In my hands, the phone results to slide away so easily. I often have hot hands, and by consequence, smooth hands. On 6X's materials the result is incredibly slippery!
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] adriansticoid:
My friend uses TPU+PC case. Very strong grip. ;)
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] sniperlife:D:
Doesn't feel slippery despite being metal.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
definitely feels good. corners are curvy so phone can be easily carried in hand without trouble. Phone is of 5.5 inch screen size so a bigger one for many but the design makes the difference here and we can easily use the phone without any problem.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] hassanjavaid8181:
Feels good in hand.not slippery as honor 5x
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] narshi shukla:
It feels very good in hand nice look and design comfortable to hold but bit of slippery
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] chrisleLP:
Feels premium. I love the curved back
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] alimir98:
feels really premium in hand
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] itisiryan:
Just the right size for my hand.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] XDARoni:
It feels alright when holding it. The size is really good, but it does feel cheap.

[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
Personally i have to admit that i like so much EMUI 5.0. EMUI 4 didn't got the same level of impression on me, while the passage to version 5+Nougat did it instead. It's a very smart UI, clean and easy to approach. I came from LineageOS 14.1 to EMUI 4.1; at the beginning i was disappointed, then i tried to make habit to it. It was transmitting to me a sense of poorness in relation to LineageOS. With 5, I still miss some exclusive Lineage features (hope to get 'em back too) but it is definitely better than his previous version.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
Right man, EMUI has an enormous size of icons, i understand that the display is big but ouch stock EMUI icons are punches in eyes, seems like they're made for cyclops. With a resize of icons thanks to third party launchers, everything comes back to normal luckily :cowboy:
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] thilak devraj:
emui5 is classic, one of the reasons that i still stick to my honor phones
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] sniperlife:D:
I hope EMUI 6 offers changes in UI.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
It should be more similar to AOSP by what I've read
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] sniperlife:D:
How similar?
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
I apologise guys, i went to search the same article that I've read yesterday about the similitude with AOSP to link it for you and I've noticed that they have modified the article since that they wrote the phrase as an affirmation, instead that a question. They now wrote that "they'll see if this time EMUI will be more Android Stock or if they'll go in the opposite direction". The thing that is sure is that EMUI 6 should be more user-friendly thanks to suggestions based on previous user experience. Hope to be on custom soon anyway...
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] sniperlife:D:
That's ok bro. I really hope they do it that way.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
it was not so exceptional till EMUI 4 but with EMUI 5.0 it has certainly evolved much and became more user friendly.

Notification panel has improved.

shortcut tiles are a big welcome as earlier we had only 8 tile limitation which changed upto 20+ in EMUI 5.

settings are not that good compared to EMUI 3.X (with EMUI 4 onwards, many options are hidden inside another causing multiple hops)

icon changes are welcome but not to impressive.

overall a big step from EMUI 4 but still needs improvement.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] hassanjavaid8181:
Emui 4.1was OK..wasn't an fan.but emui 5 is good expirience
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
Yes. Lot of improvement over EMUI 4 now and cleaner UI
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] narshi shukla:
I just hate EMUI

I am coming from MIUI and MIUI is much much better than emui

Other oem skin like flyme os are also better than emui.

Witch emui i feel like i am behind the competition, it is not well optimized it lags a lot don't have very useful features and basic features like call recording or long screenshot floating dock is also of third class app lock is also feels like some third party app i really wish if i can have MIUI or Flyme os 6 on honor 6x but this devices lacks community support so i will have to live with Emui
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] chrisleLP:
Coming from Touchwiz, I'm really starting to like EMUI.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] alimir98:
hoping to see emui6 on this.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] itisiryan:
Me too. Receiving EMUI 6 wikl be great.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] XDARoni:
EMUI is a bad system. It slows the phone down and is really ugly overall. Lots of useless features and bloatware.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] XDA_RealLifeReview:
Rate this thread to express how well you can see the Honor 6X's display outdoors. In case you've been playing Minecraft for 18 months straight, you might not known how to get outside anymore. Well, find the door and walk through it. A higher rating indicates that it has very high maximum brightness and thus fantastic outdoor visibility in direct sunlight.

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
With maximum visibility, with sunglasses i can read display on white pages with no problems.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
For sure, my brightness never goes more than 3/4. Only if i have to read really important things, but usually it is at 30-35%
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] thilak devraj:
IPS LCD displays are very good outdoor performers
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
Didn't knew that today was crossposting day

Oh sorry I just see same people of other threads so I think that is only one.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
Now you're one of those people in every thread, bravo!
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] jordi-chant:
The displays sunlight legibility is great. The phone does not heat up during extensive use under direct sunlight.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] sniperlife:D:
Looking good. No need to have max brightness to make it readable.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
not so good. if you are under direct sunlight then sometime contents are not visible but that too depends on the theme you are using sometime. some gives you very bright screen even under sunlight but some doesnt. (personal observation, may vary for others).

definitely not the best when it comes to the direct sunlight condition.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] hassanjavaid8181:
Its good
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] narshi shukla:
Average, sometimes have problems reading text in sunlight but mostly its average
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] ohno7158:
Never a problem in sunlight.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] chrisleLP:
Outdoor visibility is great. Though at times maximum brightness is really needed.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] alimir98:
everything is readable in direct sunlight.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] itisiryan:
All visible. Max brightness is good.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] XDARoni:
Outdoor visibility is really good. No problem seeing my screen on a bright day.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] XDA_RealLifeReview:
How well do you know your fifty shades of grey? Rate this thread to express how good the Honor 6X's display contrast is. A higher rating indicates that black is true black, rather than a very dark gray.

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
Have to confirm what mentioned above, contrast is a weak point of this phone
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] thilak devraj:
well, it's not an AMOLED panel, so can't expect inky true blacks
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] sniperlife:D:
You can't expect that much for this price.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
as per the price, it is good not so wow but cant expect the AMOLED quality.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] hassanjavaid8181:
It good at its range.no complain
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] chrisleLP:
I'm satisfied with the cantrast. Colors are easy to the eyes.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] alimir98:
black feels bright sometime.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] itisiryan:
Little brighter blacks. Not that good.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] XDARoni:
This is an area where this display suffers a bit. Blacks look kind of light.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] XDA_RealLifeReview:
If you're colorblind, please disregard this thread. Rate this thread to express how you deem the color saturation and accuracy of the Honor 6X's display. A higher rating indicates that you think that color accuracy is very high and saturation is excellent.

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] pottedplant73:
Color accuracy isn't very good, especially for an IPS panel. Definitely a disappointment if you're used to the very saturated AMOLED displays, or even higher quality IPS displays. Blacks are pretty good, but color accuracy seems, at least subjectively, not much better than that of my Moto E 2015.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] xphyle1971:
Both of the sites below have measured the Honor 6x screen for color accuracy/temperature/brightness/contrast etc. No need to ask opinions. On one of the sites, you can plug in your favorite phone to see how its results measure up to the Honor 6x.

http://www.phonearena.com/reviews/Honor-6X-Review_id4303

http://www.tomsguide.com/us/honor-6x,review-4137.html

For color accuracy, the 6X's Delta-E rating of 3.28 was once again better than the smartphone average (4.1), as well as the scores of the LeEco (4.99) and the Axon 7 Mini (3.92). (Numbers closer to 0 are better in this test). Once again, the Moto G4 Plus sported superior numbers, with a Delta-E rating of 2.33.

The one area where the Honor 6X fell a bit flat was color range. Covering 114 percent of the sRGB gamut, the 6X trails the LeEco Le S3 (137 percent) and the ZTE Axon 7 Mini, whose OLED screen hit 177 percent. The Moto G4 Plus' color range was more limited.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] cabeni:
Color accuracy isn't very good
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
it is moderate and can not be differentiated with end user perspective. Not all the users can really understand or differentiate this so this is not an issue here at all.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] hassanjavaid8181:
Not so good but not bad either.moderate you can say
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] chrisleLP:
Bright colors are nice. Feels good to watch HD movies.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] alimir98:
not that great..but ok
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] itisiryan:
Good for the price.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] XDARoni:
Colors aren't great. Videos and images looked washed out and dull.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] XDA_RealLifeReview:
The Honor 6X has a crazy crisp display. Just kidding, this is automated text so who knows if this screen is any good. So, you be the judge! A higher rating indicates that it's extremely sharp and clear, and that you cannot see pixels with your naked eye.

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
As said by automated text, i confirm an exceptional resolution by the display with neither a pixel visible. Time will tell if this will persist in future or not
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] venom007:
good display, better than 5x
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
definitely much better resolution. better than earlier versions. Full HD IPS display is more than sufficient and clarity is good and completely acceptable.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] hassanjavaid8181:
Good display.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] chrisleLP:
Very good resolution. No doubts.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] alimir98:
not bad
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] itisiryan:
Clear display. Though I think it could be better.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] XDARoni:
The Honor 6X has a 1080p display and looks nice and crisp.

You don't want to give your significant other yet another reason to yell at you while you're reading XDA in bed. Rate this thread to express what you think of the Honor 6X's display minimum dimness. A higher rating indicates that the display can get extremely dim, ideal for reading in very dark environments.

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] RedSkull23:
Except sunny days, the minimum brightness is sufficient to read almost all in the screen (not always simple to see the hour between cover and tempered glass)
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] venom007:
sufficient but could have been better
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
in day time under dark room, regular tasks are fine. but if you go to sunlight, this needs to be maximize. under night condition as well, minimum brightness is sufficient.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] hassanjavaid8181:
Its good but could have been better
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
Yes especially daylight or direct sunlight
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] narshi shukla:
Minimum brightness is not that much minimum as Xiaomi phones have

I have difficulty using phone at night i have to use third party apps to further decrease brightness,

XIAOMI phones are much better in terms of minimum brightness

In sunlight its not that much bright but its ok
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] chrisleLP:
Can't complain. Though minimum is still a little too much.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] alimir98:
little bit bright for dark room.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] itisiryan:
Just right. Not too bright.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] XDARoni:

When I answer a call there is a lag between green key press and communiction start, do you notice something similar?
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
Not really..fine for me..havent noticed such lag
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] diazou:
i also have a great call quality with this phone.
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] geekdeepak:
input volume through earphone mic is low

The other side always complains when i talk with earphones on with third party apps (hanoguts, skype, whatsapp etc).

Any fix to this ?
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] shashank1320:
Seems network issue..how about direct call on these apps without headphones on
[Honor 6X Real Life Review] geekdeepak:
no issues at all. other side can hear me loud and clear.
