Honor 4X, a mid-range with great features and an attractive price

Honor

Honor, the Huawei subsidiary continues to offer us high-quality mobile devices, and in most cases with a careful design, as well as prices within the reach of any user. Today and through this article we are going to offer you a complete and detailed analysis of Honor 4X, a phablet with great features that we can acquire for a very low price, and that we already anticipate that it has left us a great taste in our mouths. The Honor 5X is currently available on the market, but for the moment it has not reached our hands, so we are going to focus for the moment on this terminal, which we can now get at a bargain price.

Encompassed in the so-called mid-range, this Honor terminal achieves a very good grade in terms of performance and design and clearly suspending in the camera side, one of the most important aspects of any smartphone today and that in this Honor 4X it is far from what we could expect. If you want to know this smartphone from the Chinese manufacturer, get ready because we started with the analysis.

Integrated

The design of this Honor 4X is one of its strengths due to the final touch that has been given to the plastic used for construction of this mobile device, but we cannot forget that we are facing a device with plastic finishes. Nowadays, most of the terminals on the market offer us metallic finishes, with which this Honor terminal lags a bit behind.

One of the things that attracts the most attention is its back with a rough touch that makes the device grip on any surface. Any user who holds the Honor 4X in their hands will quickly realize that it offers a sense of security and that it seems impossible for it to fall from our hands at any time. Currently on the market it is available in black and white, with the same rough touch in both cases and which is one of the things that attracts the most attention.

To end this section we must point out that we are not facing a unibody terminal, which, however, will find it somewhat difficult to remove the battery. Of course, with a little skill and care we can remove it without any problem, which is something very welcome.

Performance

The performance of the smartphone is a marvel for its class, we have not found any kind of problem after subjecting it to several intense tests. We must also point out that the customization layer of Huawei EMUI 3.0, developed by Huawei which is the owner of Honor and which facilitates not only this layer of customization, but also some applications of the Chinese manufacturer.

This layer of personalization, which is one of the most applauded by users, it does not deteriorate the general performance of the device and even if we install a clean ROM the thing will not change too much. Of course, unfortunately we will find several applications installed natively, which we cannot uninstall and which is undoubtedly a nuisance for many users who like to decide which applications we have on our smartphone and which ones we don't.

In the tests that we have carried out this Honor 4X, we can enjoy and work perfectly with several applications open at the same time and even play, without any problem, the best games of the moment and that in general usually require enough resources to be able to run them without problems or stoppages.

Characteristics and specifications

Honor

Next we are going to review the Honor 4X main features and specifications;

  • Dimensions: 15,3 x 7,7 x 0,9 centimeters
  • Weight: 168 grams
  • Display: 5,5 inches with a resolution of 1.280 x 720 pixels
  • Processor: Kirin 620 octa-core 1,2 GHz 64 Bits of own manufacture
  • RAM memory: 2GB
  • Internal storage: 8GB expandable via microSD card
  • Cameras: 13 megapixel rear and 5 megapixel front
  • Battery: 3.000 mAh that will ensure several days of autonomy
  • Android KitKat operating system that could soon be updated in an official way as confirmed by several Honor officials

In view of these characteristics and specifications we can realize that it is a mid-range terminal, which stands out in some aspects such as the battery or the screen that offers us great quality when it comes to viewing content. To all this we would have to add its price of approximately 179 euros to realize that we are facing a terminal that we could fit into the mid-range, although with a reduced price and almost more typical of the low range.

Battery

Regarding the battery of this Honor 4X we can say that Although it is not the best smarpthone on the market in this regard, it is close to the best. Without any problems we have managed to reach two days of use with this terminal, squeezing hard and we could almost say that without mercy.

Speaking of figures, the battery of this terminal has a capacity of 3.000 mAh and although it has a huge screen, it offers us a very important autonomy. In addition, the different battery saving modes proposed by the Chinese manufacturer are also very important and that at certain times can be really important and useful.

The cameras, the weak point of this Honor 4X

Honor

If in general the Honor 4X we liked a lot for its power, screen or autonomy that it offers us, It has left us a little cold when using both its front and rear cameras and check the results obtained. The thing also worsens greatly when the light diminishes or when we find ourselves in situations of total darkness.

In general we could say that the cameras are not up to par, but as long as the lighting conditions are adequate we will not have too much problem. If the lighting conditions are bad, the rear camera especially will suffer greatly.

Obviously a mid-range terminal, with a low-end price, we cannot ask for an exceptional camera, but perhaps this Honor 4X should improve especially in this regard and we hope that when the new Hopnor 5X falls into our hands, one of the novelties that surprises us is an improvement in your camera.

To clarify and finalize this point and to leave no one doubting, if we take a photograph in normal light conditions we will obtain correct results. If we want to take a photograph in the middle of the night or in a place where there is not too much light, the results leave a lot to be desired.

Price and Availability

This Honor 4X has been on sale in the market for a few months now for a price of 179 euros. Currently we can also acquire the new Honor 5X that has been presented by the Huawei subsidiary a few weeks ago at an event that took place in China. In the past CES 2016 this new Honor 5X was also presented, which follows the lines in terms of design and performance, of the terminal that we have analyzed today.

If you are interested in acquiring this Honor 4X, do not rush to buy it in a fast and accelerated way and search first in several stores both online and physical, because if you search and compare with total security you will find a very cheap price for this Honor mobile device.

Conclusions

As we said at the beginning of the analysis This Honor 4X has left us a great taste in our mouths And if we take into account what it offers us and above all its price, of 179 euros, it is simply a perfect smartphone for most users who are not going to make excessive use of the terminal. If we are also going to use it to play games or to view different digital content, it will once again become the perfect smartphone, thanks to its power and especially its large screen.

Unfortunately the cameras are not up to par on certain occasions and the version of the Android operating system may be too dated, but once again if we consider the price and the overall performance, we can pass it as a weak point, as another of the many who have other mobile devices.

In a very personal opinion and after using this terminal for a few weeks, I have been quite enchanted, although like all devices on the market there may be some inconvenience. Its size, its design or its camera can be those disadvantages. The strengths are undoubtedly its price, its power and the great possibilities offered by a terminal with such a large screen.

What do you think of this Honor 4X that we have analyzed in great detail today?. You can give us your opinion in the space reserved for comments on this post or through any of the social networks where we are present and where we are waiting for you with open arms to be able to debate with you.
