Huawei's sub-brand Honor is about to launch the new Honor 7X in China. The reservation period has already started and will begin to be sold in this country from October 17. Their arrival in the United States and Europe is not ruled out. And it is something to be appreciated, since the terminal has features that are not bad at all. The most striking thing is its infinity screen with an aspect ratio of 18: 9. It has a size of 5.93 inches and a Full HD + resolution (2160 x 1080 pixels). It is, therefore, a very appropriate phone to view multimedia content at an acceptable quality.
The design of the Honor 7X is quite nice. It presents a continuous line with respect to its predecessor, the Honor 6X. Its casing is metallic and there is almost no presence of bezels. It is clear that the panel is the complete protagonist. The edges are rounded and we find a fingerprint reader presiding over the central rear part. Something that is striking is that it does not have a physical start button. It is tactile and is incorporated into the screen itself.

Power and camera to match
The Honor 7X is powered by a Kirin 659 processor from the house. It is an eight-core chip working at 2.36 GHz. It is accompanied by a Mali-T830 MP2 GPU for the graphics and 4 GB of RAM. This set will allow us to be able to enjoy heavy applications or work with several simultaneous processes. It is something that is always appreciated, especially with the number of new titles that are currently on Google Play. When it comes to storage capacity, the new phone comes in several versions: with 32, 64 or 128 GB. All of them are expandable by using microSD type cards.
The photographic section will not disappoint either. The Honor 7X comes with a dual 16 and 2 megapixel sensor. The secondary sensor is prepared to calculate the depth of the image for an improved Bokeh effect. An 8 megapixel sensor is available on the front for selfies, capable of operating through gestures. For the rest, this model also equips a 3,340mAh non-removable battery that, according to the company, allows up to 21 hours in talk mode and 22 days on standby. Also, the smartphone supports Huawei's fast charging technology, SuperCharge. Other features are IP67 certification, which makes it splash and dust resistant, or Android 7.1 Nougat.
Price and availability
The Honor 7X has just been put on sale in China through a reservation system. It will begin to be distributed from next October 17. That is, in just a few days. Its price starts at 160 euros for the most basic version (with 32 GB storage). Their arrival in the United States and Europe is not ruled out. We will expand as soon as we have new news.
