The Stunning Appearance:
Huawei uses 6-layer high composite technology to build Honor 6. This makes it a stunningly beautiful smartphone that feels great in hand. The technology produces a tactile experience with a Spin effect texture finish that takes smartphone design to a new level of craftsmanship. On the sides, it gets a metallic rim with silver finish that adds extra flavor in its design.
Extraordinary mid-segment smartphone:
It has 5-inch, 1080×1920 pixel, IPS LCD display that delivers awesome picture quality. Whether you play with the phone, surf Internet, or enjoy videos, the full HD display pleases your eyes.
Its rear speaker produces loud and crisp sound that allows you to enjoy movies and songs.
Huawei runs on Android 4.4 KitKat over Emotion UI 2.3, which feels rather nifty. The UI comes with a big difference – no app tray, means all the apps reside on multiple home screens, the app icons and menu layouts are also different than usual. The lock screen has been tweaked to provide instant access to media controls, torch and calculator (that are unavailable if you set PIN to unlock your phone). The ultra power saving mode converts the device into a basic utility phone (call and sms) for saving battery life. It packs Hisilicon Kirin 920 octa core processor, 3 GB RAM, 16 GB ROM and cat 6 LTE (promises speed of up to 300 mbps) that makes it outstanding, even in comparison to high-end devices such as Samsung Galaxy Alpha.
The smartphone boasts of a 13 MP touch focus camera with dual LED flash at the rear and 5 MP camera at the front. The rear camera clicks nice images even in low light and comes with several modes such as smart, beauty, etc. The Best Photo mode chooses the best shot out of 10 clicks, the Audio Control mode allows you to prompt voice command to shoot an image, the Audio Note mode allows you to simultaneously record 10 sec audio while clicking the image and the watermark mode is also available. You can shoot the usual 1080p and 720p resolutions video with the rear camera. The front 5 MP camera clicks quality selfies and is decent for video chats.
Omnipotent Li-Poly Battery:
It houses a 3100 Li-Poly battery inside, which is nonremovable. The phone can last a day with full charge and in our video playback testing, it lasted for 8 hours 15 min. Bottomline:Honor 6 is a strong contender among mid-segment smartphones with powerful performance and awesome battery life. It is a perfect choice for people looking for a stylish smartphone loaded with features.
