Today, the Chinese giant has announced a successor dubbed the Honor 7X and it looks set to step on the footprint of its predecessor.

    Would have liked to see a larger battery, but the Kirin 659 should be fairly efficient. I can get 10 hours of sot with my honor 6x pretty easily, so hopefully this is comparable. Hope they included scratch resistant glass and an oleophobic coating this time.

      Hi, are you going to buy it or wait for the RN5?

        Definitely waiting to see what the RN5 has to offer. Will be keeping an eye on honor 7x reviews though. I’ve been pleasantly surprised with my experiences with the honor 8 and honor 6x thus far.

          I am waiting for the right deal to get the Mi Note 3. The best price I have seen is 325€ and with the shipping costs the final price reaches 343€ which is still expensive for a phone equipped with the SD660. I mean that below 300€ I would have ordered the phone instantly. M6 Note is still on my list but the phone has a yellowish screen compared to the RN4. I wish that the RN5 was already out in order to buy it but unfortunately it will be released in China in December.
