Introduction, Overview and Key Features

Huawei has supported its Honor sub-brand as extremely as it now seems to have made its space in competition. With the focus on its high-end P and Mate series, Huawei keeps launching Honor devices all the year. Recently launched Honor 6X has attracted customers mainly for its dual-camera configuration. This dual-cam smartphone has spent a few weeks with us — courtesy of Huawei, let’s see in the Honor 6X review what it actually has to serve you.

There is really no objection, what Huawei builds, it is as good with budget and mid-range as with a high-end device. Most of the time we liked the build quality of Huawei devices, Honor 6X is no different in that sense. However a phone has to serve more than just with its build and handling. We’ll sure inform you about how this piece of hardware performs.

You probably have already been aware that Honor 6X is available in Pakistan for the price of PKR 28,500/- officially. You can even find it for lower prices if you search the market near you or online. The lowest price we saw was on daraz.pk. Look out for the deals below.

Following the launch in China last year in October, Huawei launched the Honor 6X globally in January during CES. Sooner after, Huawei Pakistan made the phone available in Pakistan as well as the company invested much in its promotion.
