HUAWEI Honor 8X (64GB + 4GB RAM) 6.5 HD 4G LTE GSM Factory Unlocked Smartphone - International Version No Warranty JSN-L23 (Blue)

This is my second Huawei product. I like that for the price point, you get a phone that can stand up to higher priced phones from the Big Three. I tend to abuse my phones as Im a maintenance man and my phones are exposed to dust, vibration, and scratches and drops. Screen: decent resolution. Has features such as blue light reduction. Id suggest getting a screen protector as my last Huawei phone was prone to small scratches. Standard protections should be fine. In the middle of the screen. At the top, the camera is located. Occasionally content is blocked in this upper area. As if the screen doesnt take in account that the camera is located here. Minor, minor issue. Only a problem occasionally when looking at PDF blueprints and manuals. Body: I believe its glass. I could be wrong. But it is beautiful. I love the placement of the fingerprint reader. I added my two pointer fingers and a secondary finger. Even if I scratch up my hands or have glue on them, its fast and responsive. Having the third offset finger really helps in this. Camera: I havent used the camera as much as my Huawei Mate, but so far its AI camera is of quality. Very sharp and detailed images. Im able to zoom in front distance and take pictures of small lables from a distance. My hands shake sometimes (medical issues, chemical exposure) and the sharpening mode really helps. Specially when zoomed in on text. Wifi/mobile data: There are some areas where I wish the antenna was stronger. The Huawei mate seems to have a faster connection. This may be due to the Mate being a version focused to the USA, and the 8x being an international version. Due to the restrictions the U.s. gov is trying to put on Huawei phones. But, in normal use, I dont have any issues. Occasionally Bluetooth fails, but turning it off then back on, it works perfectly. This may be more to do with my cars connection, and not an actual problem with the phone. I just noticed it happens with Huawei phones more than my old Samsung. All in all, its an excellent phone for most uses. Get a case. Get a screen protector. Youll be 100% happy with it. I just abuse phones so Im slightly more critical. I really wish major brands got hip to the game and made a more durable case. Id love something with more shock proof functions.

I have been using this for a year now and I dont have any complaints. THIS PHONE IS AMAZING!!!!.... I didnt want to pay hundreds of dollars and I found this. My cheap soul is really happy.

I could not register the phone, Antigua and Barbuda is not on your list of countries. Please add our country,

The honor 8x.. Ive had this phone a few months now and can honestly say one of the best phones Ive had. Came from an iPhone to this. Love that it has the same gestures and movements as the iPhone. Excellent camera with tons of features. Smooth and responsive phone. Facial recog verifys 90 % of the time. Has not bogged or slow down once yet. Plays games/videos with no issues. Im definitely going to try their flagship versions next bc this has been nothing but a pleasure to use.

El teléfono me llegó hace una semana y estoy muy complacido con el producto. El tamaño de pantalla es increíble y la calidad de imagen es buena, el teléfono se siente firme y sólido, no es muy pesado para lo que uno esperaría de un teléfono de este tamaño. La huella digital y el reconocimiento facial son instantáneos y me encanta usarlos. La batería dura mucho ya que es de 4000 mA. El EMUI (la interfaz gráfica del sistema) es cómodo y bastante personalizable. El único problema que he tenido es que la aplicación de Google no le funciona la sección de Discovery donde salen noticias y artículos interesantes, al parecer varía gente ha tenido ese problema y no sé si con el tiempo se solucionará pero a mí no me detiene de disfrutar el teléfono. El modelo L23, el que les debería llegar, está desbloqueado y debería funcionar con sus proveedores de servicios móviles. Soy de Centro América y uso Tigo y no tengo problemas con esto. ALERTA! Si van a comprar el teléfono les recomiendo hacerlo por MVD Mobile, ya que he visto otras reseñas que dicen haberlo comprado de proveedores como TechnoMaster y les llega el modelo equivocado. Lo pedí por MVD Mobile y me llegó el modelo correcto L23. Si les llega el modelo incorrecto, L22, lo más probable tengan problemas usando el teléfono con su proveedor de servicios móviles. En general creo que el mejor teléfono para el rango de precio. Se los recomiendo a cualquiera buscando un muy buen teléfono con un presupuesto medio.

I love this phone. It has everything I want in a phone for a fantastic price. The face recognition and fingerprint reader are super fast. It knows my face with or without glasses and even in dim light. The phone itself operates very quickly and everything moves smoothly. No sticking, not even the slightest hesitation. I had to do some research to get the Google Assistant voice match to work. But Ive had the phone for a week now and I love it. Pics are amazing!

I bought Honor 6X, my husband bought 7X and my son got 8X. All these Huawei Honor phones are very good, even if not consider the price. If consider the price, they are the best phones with the lowest prices. Will buy at least one more soon before Huawei can not sell its excellent products in this country. Hope that will never happen.

Great phone. Maybe not as many bells and whistles as the higher prices phones, but a solid performer.. The camera is great.

When I first read the Huawei/Honor was bring out the 8X I was super stoked. I had the 7X and loved it, but I wanted something that was quicker and had more native storage. I followed the release of the 8X and was crestfallen when it was not released for the US, but recently I was informed that the JSN-L23 version worked for the US. I checked it out and verified the bands and became a very happy camper. I ordered this phone for my early birthday present. The first device I received was awesome... but it was the wrong color. Amazon sent me out a replacement that was correct so that I have this gorgeous blue phone in my hand. I hed my wife give the first phone a try and she really liked it so I had to order her one as well. PROS * Price - You get what you pay for and then some. This phone could easily sell for double and still be a decent buy. * Battery life - no complaints here. I can go all day and still have plenty of juice left. Im not a gamer but I travel every day for work and use my phone for my paperwork, consulting maps, and as my ereader. * Screen - my first thought on a 6.5 1080p screen was, will it look good enough? Yes, it does. It looks great. It is nice and bright. The notch is not too big and leaves plenty of room for notifications and status icons. The pre-installed screen protector was a very nice addition, as well. * Hardware - This a fast phone. The build is Gorilla glass on the front and back with metal edges, and the included clear case adds extra protection. It has a nice heft in the hand. The fingerprint sensor is dead on in the proper location and is very snappy. Game performance is good and the sound can get more than loud enough. I havent encountered any lag or stuttering in my day to day use thus far. * Cell Reception - I am on Cricket which uses AT&Ts network. I havent had any issues with cell reception. While the L23 version has bands 2, 4, and 5 it does lack bands 12 and 17. As I said above I travel daily for my job and a lot of that is by interstate and I can say that the only areas I have bad reception are the areas that have always had bad reception. I have 4G almost all the time. * Software - my phone is still on Android 8.1.0. From what I have found online Honor pulled the impending update to 9.0 due to some issues that came to light but they still plan on putting it out once these are resolved. I cant speak on EMUI as I use Nova Launcher on all my phones. CONS * Size - No matter what people say size does matter. This is a large phone. I am a big guy with big hands and it can still be a stretch to reach across the screen with my thumb. Hopefully anyone buying a 6.5 phone understands that that is part of the deal. * Camera - while I have not had any issues with the camera I have hear that some people do. Im not a photographer so as long as the image is clear I am fine with it. My pictures thus far have all looked good, but just know that this is a point of contention with some. * Micro USB - this, to me, was really disappointing. I knew about it before I bought the phone but it still bothered me. I have plenty of micro USB cables and all from previous phones (Im looking at you, Honor 7X) but it would have been much nicer to have had USB C. The bottom line is that I am very happy with this device. It is a killer bargain for the price, plus it really turns heads with its looks. Buy it.

I purchased this phone as the last in a long line of honor phones. From the 4x to here, and I think this one has surpassed the prior ones in most every manner, it feels glamorous and is responsive even after months of use. However, a case is a necessity. Even with a case, I shattered the glass back of the screen after maybe a month.
