The Honor 7X is the newest affordable phone by
Huawei off-shoot Honor, a company known for selling devices online and offering
great features for a lower price than most others. And just recently, the Honor
7X has leaked out nearly entirely on Chinese regulator TENAA.
True to earlier rumors, the Honor 7X will feature a
6-inch display, but it will not be much bigger than its predecessor, the
5.5-inch Honor 6X. This will be possible thanks to a new design as the Honor 7X
adopts a narrower display, with an 18:9 aspect ratio, a change from the wider
16:9 screen on the 6X. This allows the new 7X to be actually slightly narrower
than the 6X, but the new phone is also noticeably taller.
The Honor 7X is expected to launch in three color
versions: black, gold and blue, and as far as looks are concerned it does
reminisce the iPhone 6 a lot with that back panel and prominent antenna lines.
Expect the Honor 7X to run on the EMUI skin that is
a signature feature of Huawei and Honor phones, and stands out with smooth
performance, but also deep customization and lots of differences from stock
Android.
The Honor 7X will initially be launched in China,
but it's safe to assume that it will come to other countries as well. The Honor
7X price in Asia is allegedly set at US$ 270 for the base model, while the more
powerful 4GB RAM version will cost US$ 315.
