Honor 7x phone 2018 Review

Looking for a reasonably priced smartphone with all the bells and whistles? Look no further! The honor 7x phone is still around and considered our 2018 best buy for its price. This phone is filled with so many features and can be picked up on honor’s website.

I received the honor 7x a few weeks ago and love the simple and clean look. The classic metal design of the honor 7x is a delight to hold, with its perfectly rounded edge. The 2.5D glass face flows seamlessly into the aluminum chassis. The honor 7x comes in Blue, gold and Black finishes.

Power

After noticing its beauty, I soon started playing with it, taking pictures and seeing the quality of each image. Then I surfed the web, downloaded videos, games and apps and saw the time it took to switch from video to apps to games and camera.  This phone is no toy and is packed with some power. The honor 7x has guaranteed fast performance with the 3GB RAM, 2.36GHz Octa-core Kirin 659 and EMUI 5.1. Even with many apps running simultaneously, the user experience is always smooth. SmartM optimization and file management features minimize lagging in Android.

If you take tons of pictures, download lots of videos and games and are looking for storage then this is not the phone for you since it only comes with 32GB of storage. However, the good news is that you can install a Micro SD memory card for extra storage.

 

Perfect FullView

I do enjoy the Fullview Display. This phone has Edge-to-edge all-screen design with a high screen-to-body ratio and 2160 x 1080 FHD+ resolution. The Honor FullView display on the Honor 7X brings you an astonishing, immersive visual experience. Plus, the phone packs a 5.93-inch screen in an incredibly sleek compact body. Its size and curved frame makes it a comfortable fit for your hand.

 

Selfie

Looking for the best selfie picture? Yes, the honor 7x does take a great selfie. By far the best one I’ve seen! The 8MP front camera features an Effects function for additional WOW factor before you post to social media. The new Gesture Control function allows you to trigger a countdown to a selfie by simply turning your palm to the camera. Selfies have never been more fun especially with the portrait feature, which blurs out the background and focuses on your face.

The dual-lens 16MP + 2MP rear camera lets you captures life in the highest definition, empowering your inner photographer. Just like above, the new Portrait Mode lets you capture a professional and artistic picture in a single shot. With the PDAF tech and newly updated algorithm, the honor 7x offers ultra-fast focus
time. Quick in taking photos and never miss a single moment.

 

Life

As for battery life, a single charge lasts more than a full day thanks to the 3,340 mAh (typical) battery and power saving technology enabled by the 16nm Kirin
659 chipset. The Ultra Power Saving Mode extends your charge even longer, keeping you connected.

The best feature on the phone is the split screen. I hate going back and forth between apps but now I can catch up with friends, text while watching videos. The One-key Screen Split function offers an even faster multi-management experience. Simple one click on your Whatsapp message notification, stay up with latest news while browsing the website.

So, what is missing? The phone doesn’t come with any SmartView or Miracast built in, which lets you Mirror what is on your phone to a Smart TV or projector but it does come with a mirro app to see yourself. Ha!
