Honor 7X Specs, Price and Launch Date

Chinese telecom giant, Huawei, has announced its latest mid-range smartphone, the Honor 7X, as a successor to its popular Honor 6X mid-ranger that was announced late last year. Like its predecessor, the 7X is made out of metal and features a dual rear-camera module on the back, but the one thing that sets it apart from most of its competition is its display panel that comes with an elongated 2:1 (18:9) aspect ratio. Another notable difference is the positioning of the fingerprint scanner that has now moved to the back, thanks to the bezel-less display that makes it look much more expensive than it’s likely to be.

The Honor 7X also offers 3D surround sound, is IP67-certified for water and dust resistance, carries a 3,340mAh non-removable battery and, has support for fast charging in the form of Huawei’s proprietary SuperCharge technology. The company is also including a 9V/2A (18W) power adapter as part of the retail package.

The device will compete with the upcoming Redmi Note 5 in the lower mid-range segment, so it will be interesting to see how that works out for both companies going forward.
