Gorgeous Display
Honor 7x sports 5.93inch full HD+(1080*2160) IPS display screen with 18:9 aspect ratio. Though it has a large screen, the device feels compact. Thanks to the thin bezel around the screen. Viewing angle, color saturation, brightness and touch response is good. For media consumption, it is one of the best budget smartphone according to us.

There are plenty of modes to play with camera settings.

In our usage, we have not faced any UI lag or difficulty in playing any games. Coming to the battery, it has 3340 mAh battery. In our regular usage, it easily lasts more than a day of usage.
Value for money
There are very few smartphones in the price bracket of sub 15k which has close to a 6-inch display with the thin bezel. We are not saying it is a perfect phone. It has few cons which we will cover in our next post. But considering the price, it offers a lot to users.
