Honor 6X Vs. 7X

Honor 6X Vs. 7X​
Honor 6X
The Honor 6X is powered by the Kirin 655 and comes in 3 and 4GB RAM models. There are options for 32 and 64GB of storage. The screen has a 1080 x 1920 screen resolution at a 16:9 aspect ratio and the battery is 3340 mAh. The camera is a dual 12MP + 2MP setup.
Honor 7X
The Honor 7X has the upgraded Kirin 659 and comes with 4GB of RAM. The storage options now extend to 128GB. The screen on the 7X is now 1080 x 2160 pixels due to the new 18:9 aspect ratio. The battery is the same as the 6X but the camera is note a 16MP + 2MP setup.
Camera
The new camera is a bit of an improvement over the 6X, but is still a long way from the Honor flagships like the Honor 9. Video quality is much improved with a max resolution of 1080p. You can shoot in slow-mo at 120fps at 640x480p. There is a new feature with "effects" which is a snapchat-like filter thing.
Display
The new display is one of my favorite improvements with the 7X. This is what sets it apart from other budget phones. The 18:9 display gives you more screen and a better screen-to-body ratio. The image also has better contrast and just looks sharper overall. The screen on most budget phones is where you're going to take the biggest hit, but Honor did a great job on the 7X.
Performance
Performance is much better and instantly noticeable when navigating the system. While this phone has no-lag with basic functions and apps, this is not a gaming device. The phone struggles with intense 3D gaming just like the 6X did.
Build
The 7X has gone under a complete redesign from the previous 6X. It was given a body almost identical to the Honor 8 Pro, which i think is the best design of their Honor line-up. The phone feel premium and durable while the 6X felt much more like a budget device..
.
If i had the choice between a 7X or moto g5 plus, my choice was quickly made xD, althougjt the 7x is a nice looking phone tho.

If you want custom ROM support then G5 Plus is way to go!
No doubt the 7X is better, in every aspect
7x is better
Martin213 said:
Like i and said before launch the Honor 7x it's not worth the upgrade from 6x to 7x... I don't see many reasons to do that except screen size and body to screen ratio. Anyway it is one of the best device of that price range

Yes you're right, but if a person was upgrading from the 5X, it's definitely worth it.

honor 7x is better and worth a Upgrade,
beautiful looking device
Love the Honor 7x
I love my 7X, I switch from the iPhone 7 Plus.... And I will dont miss it now....

Honor 7X vs Xiaomi Mi A1 from Battery, Design, Camera and more?

Honor introduced a new budget competitor in the Indian smartphone market with the recent launch of the Honor 7X. Unveiled at an event in London in December, the Honor 7X carries everything that makes it stand apart from the rest of the budget line-up prevalent in the Indian market. A bezel-less display, dual camera setup and Honor’s own processor coupled with its own user interface comes as quite a bold offering by the Chinese smartphone manufacturer at its price point of Rs 12,999.
Speaking of Chinese OEMs, another player in the market has been dominating the budget segment for quite a while now. While Xiaomi started out with its Redmi Note series, with the Redmi Note 4 being the most sold smartphone in the country this year, the company also experimented with its line-up by launching an Android One smartphone in 2017. Xiaomi Mi A1, another budget offering by Xiaomi, came as a refreshing change from its existing line-up which mostly ran on Xiaomi’s own MIUI. The Mi A1 boasts of a pure Android experience, along with a dual camera setup for the photography enthusiasts. Having the same price tag at Rs 12,999, a clash with the new Honor 7X is inevitable for the Mi A1. Hence, here is a comparison between the two smartphones revealing where they come out on top and where they lack.

Design
Honor 7X has an unarguably premium feel to it with the metal casing and rounded edges. The front dons an 18:9 display with minimum bezels and looks neat. The upper bezel simply sports the in-call speaker and the selfie camera, while the bottom bezel elegantly displays the ‘Honor’ sign. The smartphone comes in an aluminium chassis and sports a fingerprint sensor at the back.
Xiaomi Mi A1, on the other hand, looks just like any other Android smartphone. It carries a minimalistic design with prominent bezels on both the top and the bottom. The Mi A1 comes in a full metal design and also sports a fingerprint sensor at the back.
Display
The Honor 7X sports a 5.93-inch near bezel-less, Full HD+ display with a 2160 x 1080 pixel resolution and a Corning Gorilla Glass protection on top. The near bezel-less display comes with an 18:9 aspect ratio display. During our use, we found the display of the Honor 7X to be an absolute treat at its price point, with ample colours, optimum brightness and a crisp viewing experience.
In comparison, the Xiaomi Mi A1 carries a 5.5-inch display with a 1920 x 1080 pixel resolution and is protected by a Corning Gorilla Glass 3. The Mi A1 display comes with a 16:9 aspect ratio, like the one on most of the budget smartphones in the market. We found the display to be decent in our use, with the ability to cater to users looking for a regular budget smartphone experience.

Firepower
Just like any other Honor smartphone, Honor 7X is powered by the company’s own HiSilicon Kirin processor. The one backing the 7X is an octa-core Kirin 659 SoC, which is further coupled with a 4GB RAM and a 32GB internal storage, which can be further expanded up to 256GB using an external microSD. The smartphone runs Honor’s in-house EMUI 5.1 on top of Android 7.1.1 Nougat. Currently, there is no confirmation on the Android Oreo update for the Honor 7X.
Xiaomi’s Mi A1 is powered by Qualcomm’s tried and tested Snapdragon 625 SoC with eight cores. In addition to this, the smartphone carries a 4GB RAM and a 64GB internal storage, further expandable up to 128GB using an external microSD. As a change from Xiaomi’s regular smartphone line-up, the Mi A1 skips the MIUI interface and instead runs Android 7.1 Nougat, being Xiaomi’s first Android One device in collaboration with Google. Xiaomi is currently looking for Beta testers for the Android Oreo update for this smartphone. There is no official confirmation for the release of the update as of now.
Camera
Honor has been known for the camera capabilities of its smartphones, ranging from the Honor 8 Pro, right down to the Honor 6X, which set the trend for affordable dual camera smartphones. Honor 7X now builds on that reputation and carries a dual camera setup with a 16-megapixel primary lens along with a 2-megapixel secondary lens for adding depth effect to the images. Overall, the camera is able to deliver very good picture quality. At the front, the Honor 7X houses an 8-megapixel selfie shooter, able to work at 1080p resolution and also deliver Bokeh effect to the selfies.
Xiaomi Mi A1 also sports a dual camera setup, with a 12-megapixel primary and a 12-megapixel secondary lens which together offer depth effect in the images and boast of a 2x optical zoom. At the front, the Mi A1 sports a 5-megapixel selfie camera with similar 1080p resolution capability.
Battery
Honor 7X is backed by a 3340 mAh battery, edging just over the 3080 mAh battery sported by the Xiaomi Mi A1. As the figures indicate, the Honor smartphone is able to last for a couple of hours more than the Mi A1 in practical use as well, despite the Honor 7X display consuming more battery for its daily run.
Verdict
There is no doubt that both the smartphones offer ample features at a budget price of Rs 12,999. While Xiaomi Mi A1 offers pure Android experience to its users, the Honor 7X delivers Honor’s own added features through the interactive EMUI. The cameras and the performance backup of both the smartphones are more or less similar, with their own minuscule pros and cons over each other. The Honor 7X, however, rises on top in terms of the display quality and the battery backup that the smartphone offers. Finally, the Honor device takes it away when it comes to the overall visual appeal of the smartphone, thanks to its near bezel-less display.

I am an old 7x user. Sold it and bought A1. 7x is good. Good design and good battery backup. A lagfree OS. Never faced any lags or stutter in 7x. EMUI is well optimized OS.. No doubt in that...
My reasons for selling 7x is
Terrible charging time. 3 hours for full charge
Poor Potrait camera
Normal Rear camera
Developments
Stretched videos in YouTube
Some games really sucks....
Headphones output is average.
7x can't stand in front of A1 with charging+ camera+ development..
7x selfie camera is superb. Better than A1. Also the battery backup is fantastic in 7x.

This is how posts should be instead of rooting in fanboyism..
TBH I would've waited and bought the Honor 7x, but the 64 GB version is costlier. I want both of my SIMs AND my 30GB music
Ended up buying Mi A1. The phone is decent mid-ranger, but -
> Camera sucks in low light.
> Headphone hissing still not fixed.
> Fastcharging should've been included.
> Though build quality is premium, I wished it didn't have the camera bump. I'd have preferred it to be a bit thicker which a slightly bigger battery.
> Light sensor is janky AF. Auto brightness is thrash.
But good things... well you hear it all the time. Enough performance, fast FP reader, good display (though not crisp enough). Funnyly, I've never gotten 5+ hours SoT, while other people claim to get around 6-8 hrs SoT.

1. Yeap. Camera sucks in low light...The only fix is Google Camera HDR+. But unfortunately u need root. Good thing is now u can take Potrait shot with flashlight using Google Camera HDR+
2. Honestly i don't have that issue. Running Oreo and using Sony MDR in ear phone. Never experienced that hissing issue.
3. Yeap. Fast charge is good if they included but its charging really fast. For me its took 1 hour 44 minutes to charge with Samsung adaptive fast charger.. Even my old S7 Edge ( sold due to family issues) took almost 1 hour 33 minutes to charges from 1 to 100 ...
4. Auto brightness is slightly improved in Oreo IMO
5. Me always getting around 5 to 5.30... Never touched around 6. But thats pretty decent for my usage......
I have to admit the rear camera is very good on my A1 but I am not much of a camera guy and want a phone to be extremely snappy with a big display, My problem with the mi A1 was that while using the device you can feel there is something lacking in the software even after 3 update cycles and that really bugged me and with the 7x I get a gigantic display, excellent
Since all Honor phones are getting Project Treble with their Oreo update, the Honor 7X might also get that. That would put it ahead of Mi A1 Stock android as it would get updates just as fast and maybe even beyond Android P, while the Mi A1 only will update till P.
