Smartphones with dual rear camera setups are slowly getting mainstream. Last year, we saw the setup on flagship smartphones, and now the technology is making its way on affordable smartphones too. After Coolpad Cool 1 Dual, the Honor 6X is the second affordable smartphone under Rs 15,000 price bracket to get dual cameras at the back. The Honor 6X will be offered in two variants – 32GB storage + 3GB RAM priced at Rs 12,999 and 64GB storage + 4GB RAM variant priced at Rs 15,999. It will be available exclusively via Amazon India.
As the name suggests, the Honor 6X, is the successor to the last year’s Honor 5X. While new smartphone retains the metal unibody design, the USP of the smartphone is its dual-camera setup at the back, which includes a 12-megapixel module with PDAF for clicking photos, paired with a secondary 2-megapixel snapper for capturing depth information. The working of the camera is similar to HTC’s One M8, it lets you add DSLR-like bokeh effect, and refocus on the subject even after clicking the photos.
Honor 6X specifications and features
The smartphone flaunts a 5.5-inch full-HD (1080p) IPS display covered with 2.5D curved glass on top. It is powered by Huawei’s HiSilicon Kirin 655 octa-core SoC (eight Cortex A53 cores) paired with Mali T830-MP2 GPU paired with 3GB or 4GB of RAM, depending on the variant you choose. On the storage front, you can get the one with 32GB or 64GB storage, which can be further expanded using a microSD card.
Besides the dual rear cameras, the Honor 6X also features an 8-megapixel front-facing camera for selfies and video calling. It also includes an on-screen flash mode to help you capture better selfies in low-light conditions. Fuelled with a 3,340mAh battery and fast charging support, connectivity options on the smartphone include dual-SIM card slots (hybrid setup), 4G LTE with VoLTE HD voice calling support, Wi-Fi 802.11n, Bluetooth 4.1, and GPS. On the software front, the smartphone runs on Android Marshmallow 6.0-based EMUI 4.1 skin on top. The Honor 6X also features a fingerprint sensor at the back, which the company claims to unlock the device in just 0.3 seconds.
