Android version and market relevance

The long-awaited announcement of a new smartphone from the manufacturer Honor, which took place in July 2022 (in our catalog you can see all smarphones of 2022). This is a new model Honor X8 5G — dual 5G-smartphone works on Android 11, which does not receive software updates and will forever remain on the old version of Android. If this does not suit you, then be sure to check the selected ones DROID-smartphones in our catalog. These are models that work on the latest version of the Android OS or are updated on it.

And let’s look at an important function — the availability of 5G networks support in a smartphone. The manufacturer implemented functionality for working in 5G networks in this model. This means that you can use high-speed mobile Internet (up to 100 Mb/s) without delay with a stable signal. Agree that this should be very useful and we will all quickly get used to this quality of mobile Internet.

Screen, body and battery

Good big 6.5-inch screen, made by technology TFT LCD installed in the smartphone Honor X8 5G.

The larger the screen, the larger the case. But in addition to the width and height of the hull, its thickness is important. At Honor X8 5G the thickness of the case is 8.7 mm, which turns out to be very thick. Today, there are many smartphones with a slim body. In addition, the screen area in relation to the body area affects the positive feeling of the phone in the hands. This model has a screen area of 80% to 90% of the body area (watch all smartphones with a screen from edge to edge). And one more thing, the screen area is increased thanks to the upper cutout above it, while the body area remains unchanged. Honor X8 5G received a drop notch above the screen for a selfie camera and multiple sensors. Check out detailed photos of this smartphone for a better understanding of how it looks in real life.

The battery and the operating time also depend on the screen size. At Honor X8 5G installed battery for 5 000 mAh, which is very, very good, this battery will last for a long time.

Main camera and selfie camera

The smartphone Honor X8 5G got the main camera with multiple modules (triple camera smartphones): 48 MP Wide + 2 MP Macro + 2 MP Depth sensor. And there is also a front camera that has one module: 8 MP Wide. If you judge only by the number of megapixels, then the main camera is super-camera, which is installed in smartphones. But the frontcamera not very good, we have in our catalog real selfie smartphones. It seems that we have already written many times that before buying you need to see a smartphone and hold it in your hands. And speaking about cameras, I would like to repeat the same idea once again — look at the reviews about this model, see examples of photos taken by this smartphone. It often happens that in search of a low price, you buy a model with a camera of tens of megapixels, but the photos and videos will not be of high quality.

Processor and Internal Memory

A smartphone that always works fast, smoothly and does not overheat is a smartphone-dream! You can see how fast our Honor X8 5G works in video reviews, and now let′s talk briefly about the characteristics of the processor and memory. This model received 8-core processor on the chipset Snapdragon 480+ 5G (8 nm). The amount of RAM is 6 GB.

The built-in memory on which you will store photos, videos, music and all your data, has a volume of 128 GB. In addition, the smartphone supports memory cards microSDXC.

Price for Honor X8 5G: buy or not to buy?

So this is Honor X8 5G after the official announcement.

Buy Honor X8 5G you can after the beginning of official sales, which start in  August 2022. The price-to-feature ratio of this smartphone is not bad, because there is is just a huge screen, and the camera is sooooo cool, and the frontcamera is so-so.
