The Honor 6X looks much better than its price suggests. The build quality of the device is top-notch and you can’t really complain about anything. The device still retains the composite metal design from last year Honor 5X which means there is metal on this phone, but only the back plate is made of metal. The rear metal plate is surrounded by plastic windows at the top and bottom which help in antenna reception.
The Honor 6X features a primary 12 megapixel Sony IMX386 sensor and the 2MP auxiliary sensor which is purely used to capture depth information. You can adjust the aperture from f/16 to as down as f/0.95 for a very stylistic bokeh effect. The honor 6X has a solid camera for a budget phone that even does reasonably well in low light and at night. In bright light conditions, the rear camera for honor 6X makes its place as one of the best camera smartphones in budget smartphone segment.
The secondary camera helps in capturing the depth that allows a blur effect to the image’s background digitally. Later the unique imaging algorithm engine integrates the image information captured by the dual lens camera into one image. This combination of two lenses makes the photo more vivid and detailed. Here are a few camera samples captured using the honor 6X do have a look.

The UI looks more like iOS as there is no app drawer, the colors are more pastel, and with transparency effects. The Emotion UI packs a lot of tricks under it’s sleeves.
