Honor 6X smartphone available at a discount of Rs 3,000 on Amazon India website

If you are planning on buying a new affordable smartphone, this just might be the right time to do so. Amazon India is offering Huawei’s Honor 6X at a discounted price. Launched in January this year, the Honor 6X comes in two variants – 3GB RAM/32GB internal storage (Rs 12,999) and 4GB RAM/64GB internal storage (Rs 15,999). While the former is available at a discount of Rs 2,000, the latter is being offered at a discount of Rs 3,000.

This means that the 3GB RAM/32GB storage version of the Honor 6X is available at Rs 10,999, and the 4GB RAM/64GB storage variant can be purchased for Rs 12,999. For those unaware, Huawei Honor 6X was originally launched in China last year. It was also showcased earlier this year at CES. In terms of specifications, the Honor 6X has a 5.5-inch Full-HD display of 1080×1920 pixel resolution. It’s powered by Huawei’s own octa-core Kirin 655 SoC, paired with a Mali T830-MP2 GPU.

Like the earlier-launched Honor 8, the Honor 6X has a dual-camera setup at the back. It’s comprised of a 12MP module and a 2MP module. There’s also an 8MP selfie-shooter included in the mix. The Honor 6X comes with a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor. The 4G VoLTE-capable smartphone is backed by a 3,340mAh battery.

Recently, Honor launched its mid-range smartphone Honor 8 Lite in India at Rs 17,999. Running Android 7.0 Nougat based EMUI 5.0 out of the box, the Honor 8 Lite brings new features such as an app drawer and twin app support – with the latter allowing users to login with two accounts in apps like Facebook and WhatsApp. The handset sports a 5.2-inch full-HD (1080×1920 pixels) resolution with 2.5D curved glass coating. The smartphone is powered by the company’s own Kirin 655 octa-core CPU along with 4GB RAM. The handset comes with 64GB inbuilt storage, which can be expanded using the microSD card (up to 128GB).
