Is This Your Next Smartphone? #Helpful Post

dual cameras an aluminum build a

fingerprint sensor a bezel is display

and a headphone jack and a smartphone in

2017 hey guys this is Austin went on and

reached out and wanted to sponsor a

video on their brand new 7x all I needed

was the word headphone jack and I was in

now the first thing I noticed is that

that blue is actually pretty nice so

something I really liked with the

original pixel was the very blue color

well this isn't quite so vibrant it is

definitely unique there's not exactly a

lot of other stuff in the box so there's

a european-style power plug as well as a

micro USB cable the idea here is that

you're getting a lot of what you would

expect on a 20-17 flagship but at a much

lower price so the actual official

announcement of this phone will be on

December 5th but from what I've heard

it's going to be under 300 euros

considering the price this feels good so

the design actually reminds me a little

bit of the iPhone 7 so it has very

rounded corners it's a bit of like a

seamless design but when you flip it

around front the screen is a lot bigger

while it would be nice to see USBC on

the bottom instead of the microUSB port

we do however get the headphone jack

I will say that the bottom firing

speaker on this is maybe not quite as

loud as I'd like but intership of the

headphone jack kind of evens that out

for me there's also a fingerprint sensor

on board and it's fast

I mean basically as soon as you put your

finger on the button the phone wakes

right up inside it's powered by a Kirin

659 octa-core processor 4 gigabytes of

RAM and 64 gigs of storage Kieran is

hallway and honors SOC manufacturer so

unlike pretty much every other phone out

there that has a Snapdragon chip this is

going to be something a little different

and honor claims this should be able to

hold up better under longer periods of

use such as gaming when you get into a

game like modern combat 5 they'll see

that actually holds up pretty well and

it does take advantage of the 18 by 9

display so well yes this is not going to

have the same power or something like a

flagship it looks a presently good and

for pretty much any game that's

available on Android it should be able

to handle it and with a 30 340 million

power battery you should be able to get

some pretty good gaming in on this guy

on our claims this should last up to a

day and a half of normal usage software

wise we have Android 7.0 with mui 5.1 on

top now this is a bit of a heavier skin

however you can customize it by Rhian

abling the app drawer

which is what I've done here and there

are some cool features like being able

to pull down and get something very

similar to spotlight a big selling point

of the auto 7x is the bezel less display

so it's rocking a 6-inch 2160 by 1080

max view panel when you look at it up

front it's pretty much all screen so it

has a similar screen to body ratio just

something I could Galaxy Note 8 and

while yes the panel itself maybe is not

the most color accurate thing in the

world at this kind of price there's not

much to complain about plus that wider

18 by 9 aspect ratio does a really good

job of showing you more widescreen

videos such as our iPhone 10 is it worth

it it fills out a lot more of the screen

one of my favorite budget phones of this

year is the Moto e 4 plus with a 5.5

inch screen it's actually a fairly

similar size to the honor however you

can see it just how much less screen

real estate you actually have to work

with here have you said your big display

is also helpful when it comes to split

screen so you tap and hold on the

multitasking you can pull up say like

another app if you want you can be

watching a video at the same time as

you're scrolling to a web page replying

to a message whatever around back we

have two cameras a 16 megapixel main

shooter backed up with a 2 megapixel

secondary camera for stuff like portrait

mode wow that's so stylized let's go

crazy town on this you can tell they're

really sort of like pushing the shadows

and the highlights but with this sort of

wide aperture mode that's an interesting

look I mean it's different a little bit

of HDR action see what the dynamic range

is like so bad I mean do you fear it

helps a little bit cloudy right now but

it's pretty much keeping everything in

the shot you can also enable a simulated

bouquet for the front-facing camera

the front-facing portrait actually

doesn't look bad so it does lose a

little bit of the side of my face and

especially the glasses which a lot of

phones have a problem with but consider

you this doing this purely in software

whereas at least on the rear facing

cameras you do have that secondary

camera to sort of figure out the depth

this isn't bad and this is what the

1080p video looks like from the honor 7x

so while it would be nice to have 4k the

stabilization is actually not too bad

and even when I'm kind of trying to move

around and change exposure stuff it

holds up pretty well the honor 7x is an

interesting phone so considering the

price there's a lot to like stuff like

the bezel is display the dual cameras

the good build quality saw battery life

but the question is what this thing

actually costs honor will be announcing

the full price of the 7x

a launch event on December 5th and I'm

very curious to see exactly where this

lines up because if the price is right

it's a really compelling phone so what

do you guys think about the honor 7x let

me know in the comments below and I will

catch you in the next one
