I'm currently rocking the Honor 7x and have been thoroughly enjoying the experience. Aside from some bootloader unlock issues, it's got almost everything. Having come from a BLU phone it's been a night-and-day difference! I chose the 7x mostly because after literal months of looking around at all sorts of stuff from Xiaomi, Elephone, etc. I found this to be the best bang for my buck by far:) In a perfect world the honor 8x would be very similar to the 7x but would include some extra features that are missing from the 7x(no matter how arbitrary they may be). I'd love to see the 8x ship with NFC. With GPU Turbo coming shortly the 8x definitely needs something a bit beefier than the Kirin 659, and with that save on cost by having a simpler camera setup! Gamers aren't generally photographers. Gorilla Glass 4+ would be a plus as well! Android Pie out of the box if possible as well. I'd love AMOLED but that would increase the price significantly and hurt the price-to-performance that we're all here for. 5Ghz WiFi is also something that's been missing from my last 3 budget phones and would be a nice addition. I could take or leave USB-C; The increased power output doesn't really make any difference when devices can only charge so quickly. Fast charge technologies render that aspect of USB-C irrelevant and the quicker data speeds? Let's be honest nobody is transferring that much data or in that much of a hurry when they are. This having been said, fast charge is the #1 feature I miss between my BLOX2 and my H7x. My appreciation to anyone who has read this rant:) Good luck to all and sincere congratulations to the winner!!

I used the Honor 7x for a short time, I liked ergonomics and customization and missed gyroscope but in general it´s a very good device.
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] oslo83:
Hi,

I've used a Honor 6X in the past for it’s Smart Dual Lens Camera.

Now I'm expecting a Honor 8x with a way better camera, a better screen resolution, android 8 and some AI powers...

!? The next winner could be me !?
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] alek889:
1-Why i chose the Honor 7x?Economy,beautiful and super fast.

2-Expectations?Better speakers and sound.

3-And finally, my awesome phone..
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] Samyak210:
I have an Honor 7X. I chose this over other phones in this price because of the 18:9 display, camera quality, colour and the build quality.

I expect Honor 8X to have a better GPU, same or lesser price, bigger battery (because the screen is larger) and to get regular software updates.
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] Bl4ckAir:
Hello, I'm a big fan of Honor and had has 2 phone from you guys. The phone I'm using right now is the last year model, the Honor 7x and let me tell you, I am LOVING It!!!

What led me to choose the 7x is because I have had the 6x since 2017 and wanted an upgrade, plus my sister doesn't have a good phone so I wanted to give mine to her.

Upon using it, I fell In love with the phone, And let me tell you this bad boy can fit so much in it. I mean you got the fingerprint scanner, 16MP camera so everything you take is a guarantee high quality (unless you have shaky hands like me.). You got a rocking processor that fast and reliable, and if you're into game like Pubg it can handle that too. And that sweet battery life can last this baby for the whole day.

Last but not least, and this is one of the best feature I think any phone can have is the the theme option. Not like any theme option you have on other, the theme you apply on this one actually change the whole interface, which make your phone always feel brand new. I like how one day my phone could be an One plus, the next day it could be a iPhone X, or an Samsung Galaxy S9. The possibilities are endless.

I expect the Honor 8x to be faster, more beautiful with the notch. Become more modern with the A.I feature and being able to use 5GHZ is a huge plus in my area. And have I mentioned the 20MP camera? ? Also 6.5 is a huge display which can make everything more easy to see, and don't let me started on gaming and watching movies. Also with a big battery size like that I can play heavy game and won't have to worry about ran out of battery in the middle of the day.
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] Fredin_:
Hey, I'm currently on the Honor 9 Lite not an X but i hope this counts(its pretty close to 7X).

Currently the phone has a 3000 mAH battery but performs good.

The cpu (kirin 659 ) is good but the GPU to be frank, sucks.

The camera performs good in good lighing but when it gets dark thing get very bad.

Currently has EMUI 8, bt would love to get EMUI 9.

I chose this over Asus ZenfoneMaxProM1 beacuse of the Cameras and beautiful design.

Expectations:

*A good battery life.

*Good CPU and GPU for gaming.

*Cameras that can handle different lighting situations well.

*EMUI 9 and GPU Turbo updates.

*Good build(metal preferred).

*An FHD+ screen(most obiously its there).

*Waterdrop Notch.

*4G and Volte(Duh..)

*Budget friendly.

*The famous AI of Huawei.

##And most importantly the CAMERAS AND DESIGNING(cameras are important for me as im a YouTuber and am using my phone to shoot and would love to get better videos in my channel a)because I can't afford a camera (b)Because I''m a startup)

Hope i get one.

I'd love to get my hands on a X series. :angel:
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] Atif Munir:
honor 7x is very good fone but front camera not, only 8 mega pixel so i give this fone to my younger brother , now i am using huawei p20lite, but after launching 8x i must use it because its layout without notch is very fantastic and i really like it with full display,
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] steven360:
I've got the Honor 7x using right now, it's a great phone. The reason why I bought this is because it offered really good specs for a really good price. What really got me through was the headphone jack, and it's also on the bottom! :) I really like that design, and I still have my headphone jack! I don't really care if this phone has it or not, but it would be super awesome if it does! I'd really like to win this giveaway so I can see what I can do with this phone, possibly even build a few ROMs if I ever get the time to set up everything. Bootloader code unlocking service stopping is a bummer, but there are other ways, and also Honor does have the service back... sort of. I'd like to attach a picture but I've got a bunch of potato cameras so there is no need. I like the Honor 7x and would love to get the Honor 8x :)
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] heinhuiz:
I have used none. I'm sort of a Xiaomi fan and currently choosing between a Mi A2 Lite and a Pocophone F1. Considering the specs important to me, the Honor 8X falls nicely in the middle, so I would not reject winning it.

I wouldn't buy it though, because like I said, I'm sort of a Xiaomi fan. Only winning this might change that :D
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] Midhon58:
I bought a Honor 5X back then when it was released in 2016. At that time it really was one of the few devices having a fingerprint sensor at an affordable price tag. The premium metall body and overall feel made me decide to get this phone. A major plus I realized later was the snapdragon SoC that allowed the diversity of custom ROMs to exist.

Watching the following X-series models I was really surprised how much the premium feel improved ranging from dual cameras to minimization of screen boarders. So I really hope the Honor 8x to continue this wonderful evolution and exceed the normal expectations for a mid-range device.
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] t-ryder:
I did not own a honor from the X series (and I am curious), but a honor 7 and I really liked the customization options of EMUI. I had been using MIUI and Xiaomi devices for years, ad when I checked out the honor 7 I just had to build a theme for EMUI (it was EMUI 4 back then, which I liked more than the newer versions). I even released a honor 7 ROM which some users really liked... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l_3tDTMpPFc

Regarding various details I enjoyed my honor more than some Xiaomi devices. Having a honor X for the first time I would tinker around some more again...
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] darkmage1991:
Currently using a Honor 7x (3gb). Even using the included case :)

I pre ordered the 7x after i dropped my nexus 5x on a vacation trip. chose it because it had a great price to performance ratio, it was between the 7x or the moto g5 and chose the honor because of the better screen and better cpu.

i only was considering both of those phones cause im not a heavy user and just wanted a good price/performance phone and the honor won and easily won.

So far from what i have seen the 8x looks to be better in every way to the 7x(except the notch not a fan of notches), only real expectation i have is better battery life or at least the same which i hope is achieved since it does have the bigger battery, the newer/faster cpu is nice too but then again the 7x wasnt slow so i have no worries there. Im a little sad about it is still utilizing micro usb but again its not that big of a deal since everyone still has huge stocks of micro usb cables/chargers.

So with all the positives of the device at its price point you cant complain when the only downsides are a lil notch at the top and a previous gen charger, not bad.
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] aaron74:
I currently have the Huawei Mate SE (Honor 7x).

Story-time....

I made the switch from $amsung. My previous device was aging and dieing. So I did allot of research as I was tired of all these other companies price hiking their phones, demanding people to sell off their organs just to afford one. :) Besides their lack of providing unlockable bootloader's.

I needed a phone to be first affordable before worrying about it's features. Second I needed a company that cares about the fact that it's my device to make how I want, so I needed an unlockable bootloader. I'm tired of these companies taking advantage of this, devices that cost way more only because it's unlocked. Android wouldn't have 80% of it's current features if it wasn't for the open source development that happens on unlocked devices.

Anyhow back to my choice, Huawei seemed like the best choice to go with. Providing Flagship like specs and features at an affordable price for anyone to afford. They provided their kernel source also, which is a must I also forgot to mention.

My only complaint is their decision to take down the bootloader unlock site. I hope they reconsider this big mistake.

If I won the Honor 8x, it would be in happy hands! :victory:
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] kent_geek:
I have a 7X, which I bought because it had all the features I care about, at a great price. Plus it had a more modern look than the rest of the phones in its price range, I thought.

I'd hope the 8X would be more of the same, perhaps improving on the performance a bit.
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] sliding_billy:
⦁	I have two Mate SEs (technically, my boys have them)

⦁	I wanted to get them something reasonably priced with decent specs. They were perfect for them

⦁	The only things I would want in the 8X (which I would keep for myself) would be for them to allow bootloader unlocking and to fix the shared wi-fi/bletooth issues.
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] Azev:
Hello,

I'm currently using Honor 10, since 2 months. Before i had Honor 6X that i have given to my son.

[IMG="HONOR 6X"]https://nsa39.casimages.com/img/2018/09/10/mini_180910113421497481.jpg[/IMG]​

I have choose the Honor 6X, because i need a cheap phone, less than 250€, with storage, reagent, good autonomy and robust. I have read some tests that say Huawei/Honor are good phones. I repair Trucks and the phone is manhandled. For that the 6X made a perfect job and it still alive without any protections which is not the case for some of my other more expensives devices. Now, my son test all the features of this phone and it is an another challenge for this device.

I have one expectation for the 8X that is wireless charging . I think that Huawei/Honor have put all the best features and tech in this device.
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] DeathByArmadillo:
Hi guys,

At the moment, I'm on a Honor 10, which I love, BUT the small (for me at least) screen is driving me bonkers, and really would like to get a second phone for when I'm in a suit (and therefore not limited size-wise). I picked the 10 for a few reasons,after all it IS the best mid-ranger out there,and the cams are fantastic, but really the main one was the look of it (I was at the launch, and fell in love with the Phantom Green, shallow, but eh...).

The 8x and 8x max definitely would work well for that (I did order a note 10, but for some reason the order fell through, bloody grey imports), so actually getting one for free would definitely be a highlight for 2018 (tiny violin, it's been a bad, sad year for me :P ).

As for expectations, plenty, like with all Honor phones, I love the attention to detail and customisation that's baked in, almost at the level of the best custom ROMs (on that, pleasepleaseplease restart the bootloader unlock program...)

Oh, and have a REALLY cropped pic of me (was wearing a kilt on it, might get the people upset :P ) and my pride and joy
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] nekocrewz:
why i love the honor 5x

my current device is honor 5x . The reason why i chose this phone at first was for it's durability and i watched Youtube videos comparing the honor 5x - and honor 6x. I knew this phone just because a friend showed it to me and i quickly researched all about honor phones. when i picked the honor 5x i choose it for it's durability how the fingerprint scanner response time. But at the time the phone was gradually falling behind since honor 7x started rolling out and i've still am using this phone for about 3 years now. i love the dual sim tray with different memory card tray and i just thought it was the perfect phone for me. since im the type to drop my phone a lot i chose the honor 5x . the interface looked great and how the camera functions . it made me use honor to this day . how the metallic designed looked and just the overall design of it.

My expectation on the 8x is how will they integrate emui on the phone,the ram management for it beacause i have an honor 5x,how long the battery life of the phone ,and i hope it will handle heavy gaming really badly on the phone,and of course just with any user that likes to change the overall customization of the phone.

its a great thing that i can express how i love the phone and i will still continue to use my honor 5x since days to come. its just sad that they shut down the bootloader site. :p

A honored fan

Only reason i bought honor series phone is that its affordability for the future proof complete package phone, offering 18:9 display, dual camera setup and its powerful processor makes life easy and simple.

I also anticipate the same powerful and futuristic approach with honor 8x that will surely be a enjoyable experience using it.

The first moment I came to know about Honor was from a commercial ad. The Great Honor4x with 13Mp Camera in 2015 is a big deal which got my attraction ;)

How did I become an Honor fan? :confused:

2015 ~

I finally bought #Honor4X ? It was beauty & loved everything in it. I still have that old phone as my life memory

Reason to Chose: Camera

[IMG="Honor4X"]https://scontent.fmaa2-2.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/41708031_2011318748961683_2386323910292406272_n.jpg?_nc_cat=0&oh=a18c73984a5db0ec916136cbf0d54445&oe=5C284E2B[/IMG]

In Dec month of 2017, I got to know about the launch of Honor 7X & it came with 18:9 full view display! I bought it immediately without any second thought! and it satisfied me more than I expected ?

Reason to Chose: Full view display

My expectation on #Honor8X :

Shiny back cover with attractive colour variants :victory:

Large Notched display :cool:

Usually, for all models, the camera will be awesome in Honor phones, I'm sure this time it will be more awesome :cool:

Love the phone, its quality design and sleek look. This phone has been a great phone for a fraction on the cost. I went from a Moto X Pure to the Honor 7X and haven't looked back.

⦁ Do you have any expectations for the upcoming Honor 8X?

I'm looking for Honor to continue to shock the world by providing a flagship phone at a great price!

I had the honor 5x and then the honor 7x

The honor 7x solved the last problem the 5x had, storage space.

I love the honor line for their affordability

I feel I get the absolute best I can get for my money.

I expect the honor 8x to have a better screen and gpu for games!

There's nothing you could do to improve the honor line, just keep updating the components like you have!
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] CJ2311:
The only Honor phone I've actually owned was a Honor 5X.

Back then I had picked it because it was simply the best phone for that price range, I didn't want to splurge on a 400€+ phone, but neither did I want to have yet another slow phone. The metal finish was nice to the touch, and the snapdragon on it was brilliant compared to MTK phones. (Plus I just had to give in to the fingerprint scanner hype)

Actually, I'd say it was the only mid ranger that didn't disappoint me in the end, it even fared better than my xiaomi mi5 which encountered a catastrophic failure after 1 year.

I ended up selling it to an acquaintance and as far as I know it's still working just fine to this day, which is pretty nice.

As for the Honor 8X, I'm expecting it to be just as durable of a phone, but with a top notch camera and AI (pun non intended). It's a shame it doesn't have USB Type-C though. I really think all phones should have it in 2018...
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] jmichael2497:
honor 5x

the honor 5x was a refreshing challenge against the competition, with a good variety of features without being prohibitively expensive, and it has official LineageOS support, which is important to me as well, currently on 14.1 Nougat.

lately, i want a generally more open and versatile device, which is challenging as i shop around to find something with decent but not unnecessarily new and expensive hardware (because 8 cores and 4 cameras is silly and wasteful and not what i need):

i want a device that has functionality for currently fun activities like Cardboard, Daydream, and AR... but there are plenty that just miss the mark for Daydream. (and it probably helps to not have stupid notches, rather keep bezels and use them for stereo speakers).

i want a device that is closer to android one, enterprise recommended, rugged requirements so that i know i have a device that will at least get official support for almost as many years as apple does with their devices. (otherwise, the device needs to be fully accessible, open, unlockable, with all sources necessary for equivalent to stock functionality.)

there are oems who do things like use cameras that require proprietary OS version to be able to take full quality pictures, which is completely unacceptable. (this is just part of the trend of some companies to discourage modifications and customization, so people are more likely to give up on their phone and unnecessarily buy a new one.)

just like user swappable memory card slots, i want to be able to have user replaceable batteries instead of relying on custom battery cases or carrying large portable chargers. (it helps me be in charge of when to replace my device, or when to replace my battery rather than have to consider cost of labor and special tools.)

i still want a standard 3.5 audio jack because it just works, and it provides more security vs having to use bluetooth. (and doesn't waste power running yet another wireless chip to send data a short distance when i can run a short cable instead)

and i miss having a proper landscape keyboard like the Samsung Relay, so i am keeping an eye on an upcoming mentioned Q-phone.

i know the honor 8x will be missing a lot of this, but maybe 9x or another line?
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] C:\BlackMamba:
I've used the Honor 5X for more than 2 years now. Bought the phone before attending college as it seems like a decent device at that price point (MYR 800±). Besides, it has an amount of developer support on ROMs, which is great as the EMUI experience isn't particularly amazing (the camera UI is good though). I'd love to see more "premium" features on the 8X such as decent SOC, longer battery life, ROM support, and great camera.
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] Legoman6:
I had an Honor 6 that served me well for about 3 years.

Recently upgraded to an Honor 7X as at the price point it was great value.

It was a good decision. I like a large phone and the Honor 7X is an excellent mobile. With the metal body it feels solid, sturdy and well made. The 18:9 aspect full view screen is sharp, bright and detailed. Battery life is good and can handle the numerous apps that I've installed. Great dual lens camera that takes high quality pictures.

I'd like the Honor 8X to continue to build on the tradition of the Honor X-series in offering leading-edge features at a good value price point.

For me the Honor 8X is an obvious upgrade so keep adding the features and keep the price competitive!
[Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion] antariksh:
Honor provides best design and build quality in budget segment, hands down!

Design and build is what attracted me most in Honor 7X.

Also Kirin 659 was a very promising SoC when the 7X was launched.

Honor 8X is worthy of upgrade from 7X. Good job Honor.
