Got this after my HTC U11 plus got broken.. Love the huge bezeless display!
What is so bad about Micro USB? USB C is not faster to charge, faster with data transfer unless the underlying USB controller is faster and that is not guaranteed.
Its faster than the snap dragon 660
In India Owning iPhone is the problem and same goes to usb type C.
You don't find these much here.
This is the best phone there is can handle dolphin on 15-30 fps which is good for your budget and doesn't overheat that much also can hide the notch then what you say hire the maker of budget phones on Samsung so that they can quit $10000 phones
Oh man the transitions are very uncomfortable.
3:08 !!! STREETS OF RAGE!! FUYEAH!! 😀
Review very nicely done. My only comment is that EMUI sorta ruins launchers. Yes you can use a launcher but EMUI keeps overriding the launcher forcing you to relaunch it.
I'd rather spend $200 on this phone than spend around $1.000 on a flagship iPhone or Samsung (for not that much better performance. The only negatives for the Honor 8x are that is doesn't have a USB-C (and that's just a lack of something extra), it only has one speaker and the 8x battery doesn't last as long as the 6x. I would have accepted a phone that was 3-5mm thicker and lasted 3 days of heavy use.
Of course, we don't know how its call performance is because nobody reviews a phone's performance as a PHONE anymore.
One of the best looking phones in this price tag, but I'd rather go for Redmi note 7, better camera, sound, battery and it have video stabilisation…
I went to buy this phone yesterday, but upon checking the phone myself, I was actually put off! The sounds were low with no depth, even on earphones. The notification light was virtually non existent, even if you look thru a magnifying glass! Apart from those, the phone looked really beautiful and the display quality excellent. But personally I need a good audio output and a visible notification light. So I ended up not buying this phone that I was crazy about for some time. ?
Using Honor 8x I'm satisfied using at my vloggs
Its not pronounced "wa-wei"… its "who-ah-wei"
My version does not have NFC. 🙁
Anyone in the states can confirm the 8X works on MetroPcs/T-mobile?
Watching this on my Honor 8x. Only thing i didn't like on this phone is its low sound output via 3.5mm jack compared to my old Samsung S6. Music in Spotify is distorted/clipping even in high quality mode and its very noticeable as im using iems. I had to buy headphone amplifier (Topping NX1s). Not recommended for audiophiles.
Is this phone faster than the htc one m8 . I know the ram is double , but what about the chip set
I guessing he likes Dragonball lol
John Cena reviewing phones?!
why are you watching Dragonball gt -_- I will look over it this time
Ne one know if the 8x has the same features as mate 20 lite like private space? And any usa users who have luck with 4g lte? Thx
Just bought my Honor 8x three days ago and the only issue i noticed is when watching videos or photos on facebook and ig, the graphic is so bad. My more cheaper Oppo a37 has even better graphic.
your backdrop light is so dark, yellow and gloomy. really represent England. ? lol
Whats the Honor 8x model in your review? JSN-L42? JSN-L23?
Is it good phone 8x yes or no
Can it be wirelessly charges
What is this obsession with USB C. It makes no difference at all.
Plastic garbage,no c charger,no fast charging,not security in phone,no update with chinese phones,garbage
What is the name of the bgm. It's superb
I bought one Friday…. at this sweet price point, I can replace my handsets once a year with no strain……. I'm looking forward to the next year's model, hoping it will have a USB-C connector…….
that red is stunning
Its really good on full screen on Netflix. Probably one of the best experiences with the bezel and design of the phone. It's like your there like VR because its so HD and so thin bezel.
this phone vs lg v20 or g6
which is better
3:26 fyi there is only 4/6 GB Ram variant on this device.
ShmuzzUSB C is so irrelevant to me and many other people. I couldn't care less … This is a very fine phone.
Stop talking …. U r annoying and i dont know why
Stupid animation is eyes disturbing
Just got this phone yesterday. Happy to say that im now watching this on my honor 8x❤️
better than iphone x for fraction of the price…better design as well, expandable storage…the list goes on….
I'm watching this on my honor 8x. I'm impressed with its performance – – it is fast
4G/64G? 8G/128G? is the spec wrong? I have a 6G/64G
If you say for the price just one more time..?
Micro USB is not d problem. Usb type c is d problem bcoz u can't find it everywhere if u wan to chrge it.usb type c wil be comon evrywhr aftr 2 to 3 yrs .
Stock android is boring.i dont knw how u like it.
the only thing micro usb is good for is those magnetic adapters you buy on ebay…otherwise they get flimsy in 6 months or so….
6:41 hit or miss I guess they never miss, huH?
