Flagship Honor 8-core processor, 3 GB of RAM, a 5-inch Full HD-TV, 3100 mAh battery on and 5MP front camera and main 13Mp. The average cost of the device – $ 470, which is much cheaper than high-end smartphones from other manufacturers. Well, that looks like a tube and how nimble and smooth in operation, further in the review.

Options

Honor 6 comes in a compact cardboard box from a solid blue cardboard on the bottom of which is a sticker with the basic information about the gadget.

Inside the package, apart from a smartphone is cable micro-USB / USB, charger adapter, user manual, warranty card, headset-ear microphone and answer button, plus a tool to extract the microSD-card and SIM cards.

Design and functional elements

By developing a new generation of smartphone, Huawei engineers decided to leave it from its predecessor Honor 3 only rounded edges of the housing. The rest of Honor 6 resembles more a top P7. He, for example, has the same rounded bottom end of the plastic, devoid of the rim that encircles the other “marginalia” device.

In addition, the back cover of the gadget is made of a complex composite material, very similar to glass, which fell to the back of the P7. And the only thing that somewhat cheaper overall picture flagship design – frame of a plastic package “under the metal.”

Ergonomics good functional elements. The power button and volume rocker, arranged on the right “marginalia”, you can find even blindly. Here is a slot for microSD and microSIM card, covered a total cap.

On the bottom is the microphone port and microUSB, and on top of a 3.5 mm audio jack, microphone noise reduction and infrared port for controlling appliances.

Due to the rounded edges of the body and relatively small for a 5-inch smartphone Dimensions (cm. Table) Honor 6 quite comfortably in your hand, while the fingers of one hand to operate it still hard. Besides, a little slip back panel created from six balls of the material used, according to the manufacturer, in space. It has a nice texture shimmers in the sun and seemingly durable. But objectively level of quality, of course, will only show for a long time operation of the device.

Of functional elements on the back of the eye are the main smartphone 13Mp camera, framed by a thin metal ring, dual LED flash, logo of the manufacturer and the slot for multimedia speaker covered with a mesh of metal.

In turn, the front panel is occupied by 5-inch screen, 5MP camera eye, communication speaker, light sensor and proximity plus status indicator. Enable or disable the latter can be in the settings menu.

The build quality is not to find fault with the machine – do not flex or creaks. In the market it is available in two colors: black and white.

Display

5-inch IPS-display received permission to 1920×1080 pixels. The density of the image is 445 pixels per inch – a great indicator pixelation absolutely invisible.

The screen has a good color rendering and high brightness reserve. The latter, by the way, are regulated both manually and automatically. In the same way, and can adjust the color temperature of the display.

Panel through effective anti-glare filter does not tarnish the bright sun and boasts excellent viewing angles without significant color shift even with large deviations.

From bumps and scratches screen gadget glass Gorilla Glass protects the third generation. On the outer part of applied qualitative oleophobic coating – excellent finger glides over the glass, and the surface is almost does not collect fingerprints.

Sensitive sensor simultaneously detects touches to ten and, in addition, reacts to touch gloves.

Memory

The manufacturer offers a modification of Honor 6 with 16 GB of internal memory. Of these, I note 11.5 GB available to the user. However, if necessary, it can be expanded using its microSD memory cards up to a maximum of 64 GB or by connecting an external USB-drive using standard USB-OTG.

Features and performance

Honor 6, as befits a flagship – a monster of our time on the part of the “iron”. It uses a proprietary platform HiSilicon Kirin 920 – perhaps one of the most powerful SoC today. It consists of 4 cores Cortex A7 with a frequency of 1.3-1.6 GHz and 4 core Cortex A15 with a frequency of 1.7-2 GHz, as well as GPU Mali-T624. The amount of RAM in the machine is impressive – 3GB.

Features stuffing Honor 6 not only in numbers look impressive, in practice the smartphone can play 4K-video, no problem coping with the most demanding 3D-games. Run applications and files quickly, without delays the transitions in the menu.

Best Performance hardware stuffing allowed Honor enter 6 in the Top 10 Benchmark AnTuTu. And then, as proved himself a hero in the review of other testers, you can see in the screenshots below.

Wireless modules and interfaces

The smartphone has a module Wi-Fi 802.11a / b / g / n / ac with support for Wi-Fi Direct and Wi-Fi Display, as well as Bluetooth 4.0 A2DP. The device has a built-in FM-radio and is able to determine the coordinates of a GPS with A-GPS, GLONASS. The opportunity to work with NFC novelty deprived, but added Infrared to control home appliances.

For quick access to the activation of wireless communication modules their labels rendered in the area of notifications. As part of the work interfaces for testing the quality of the complaints I have not had.

Your device supports 2G, 3G and 4G networks. The SIM-card format “micro” in a certified model for Ukraine alone, while in other markets available and dvuhsimochny version.

Battery

The smartphone is equipped with a battery capacity of 3100 mAh. A fully charged battery lasts for an average level of the backlight 9 hours watching Full HD video, about 17 hours of reading or 4.5 hours of play in Asphalt 8. That is, at least one and a half to two days without recharging guaranteed.

Battery capacity

Attention should be provided for power-saving mode, in which you can only make calls, send and receive messages and view contacts.

Dynamics

Elementary and multimedia speakers smartphone sound clean and have an adequate supply of the volume.

Vividly musical ability Honor 6, in my view, manifested in the activation mode DTS, such an analogy Dolby, which gives the sound depth and spaciousness.

Camera

The smartphone is equipped with two cameras – 13Mp main camera and 5MP front.

The first can record video at a maximum resolution Full HD, and the second in HD.

The main photomodule supplemented autofocus, dual LED-flash and a huge number of settings and shooting modes, including the latest: HDR, Decoration,

Panorama, watermark, audio notes and Smart mode automatically improves the quality of the photo, depending on the environment. In addition, you can change the focus already on the finished image.

On the quality of shooting, I would have reacted to her strengths smartphone – quite fast focusing, good macro photography is excellent in daylight and at dusk worthy.

Front – a good find for selfimana and videokonfrentsy Skype. Available shooting panoramas, is the mode of “Decoration”.

Well, on the background of the main competitors Honor 6 can be considered one of the most productive and available in the market. Moreover, many of them he wins in battery capacity and a compact size.

Software

Powered smartphone operating system Android 4.4.2 with firm shell Emotion UI 2.3. But the manufacturer last year promised upgrade to Android 5.0 Lollipop and EMUI 3.0 in early 2015.

Interface Honor 6 characterized by the absence application menu – all the widgets, shortcuts and folders displayed in one menu. Supports gesture control and the ability to activate the “control buttons.” The latter can be freely moved from the left to the right edge of the screen and vice versa.

Another useful feature Emotion UI 2.3 – the choice of the working style of the screen: “Normal” or “Simple”. The latter will be useful for users who take the first smartphone in your hands because it is easy to use, or for drivers who while driving is easier to work with large labels.

Findings

Summing up, I can say that Honor 6 may well claim the title of the so-called flagship for the masses. With very affordable price tag successful way he combines a top “iron”, a large 5-inch display format FullHD with wide viewing angles, high-quality photos and audiosostavlyayuschie, and advanced functionality.

From what today lacks this applicant for flagmanstvo – “fresh” version of the Android OS and Emotion UI, but, according to the manufacturer, this release is not far off. It is a pity also that the Ukrainian market only certified odnosimochnaya version of Honor 6 H60-L04.

pros:

• Attractive design;
• Excellent screen with wide viewing angles and management mode with gloves;
• Quality speakers and the main chamber;
• High-performance “iron”;
• Good autonomy;
• Support for gesture control.

cons:

• Not the most current version of today Android and Emotion UI;
• The absence of the certified version dual-sim.

The post Review of the smartphone Honor 6 appeared first on Raqwe.

Not so long ago we visited smartphone review Honor 3C , which is generally made us a good impression. Now, however, we received a younger version of this model, called Honor 3C Lite. Let’s see what it can offer users.

Options

Honor 3C Lite comes in a box of turquoise color, which is apart from the smartphone charger with a current of 1 A, USB cable, a wired headset and paper documentation.

Appearance and ease of use

Honor 3C Lite has a pretty standard size for the device with a 5-inch screen. Length is 142 mm, width – 72 mm, and thickness – 9 mm. Because of this, the smartphone is quite convenient to use with one hand.

We were on the review model came with a back cover is white, but there is a version with a black cap. In the first case, it is glossy and matte in the second texture under the skin

If we talk about appearance, the smartphone has a very familiar look. Disappointed with the front side of the device, as looks quite boring.

At its top is a light indicator, light sensor and proximity, the front camera lens and earpiece. Under the 5-inch screen is touch three hardware keys.

Sidewall casing divided almost equally between the frame and the display back cover. Keys and volume control is on the right, they are made of plastic coated with a metal. Above is the 3.5mm audio jack, and bottom – the main microphone jack and microUSB.

On the back of the product facility is located in the main camera with flash and additional basic microphone and speaker. Removing the back cover, we have access to a removable battery capacity of 2000 mAh. And only after removing the battery, we can change the SIM-card format microSIM card and microSD.

In terms of ease of use of the smartphone has been very good. Yes, it is not the most compact, but in everyday use is not affected. Over time, you can get used to the size. Mechanical keys deserve only the forest yet, because clicking on them nice and crisp. But the high-gloss finish and the lack of a removable lid oleophobic coating explicitly added advantage of the device.

Operating system and interface

Honor 3C Lite is running the Android operating system version 4.4.2 KitKat c launcher stylized shell Emotion UI.

Through the use of the launcher, not the shell, the smartphone has an unusual interface. In fact, the interface is strongly reminiscent of Emotion UI, but the blind and the settings menu look like naked Android. Therefore, the merger will not please everyone.

Hardware Platform

Processor smartphone if not old-timer, the exact time-tested – MediaTek MT6582.

It consists of four cores that can operate at a frequency of 1.3 GHz and a graphics accelerator Mali-400 MP. The amount of RAM is 1 GB, from which after turning about 300 MB available. Built-in memory – 16 GB, but you can count on 13.3 GB expandable through memory cards microSD.

Since this is a common processor on performance tests will not elaborate. But it is worth noting that, despite the use of an old chip device afford to run and provide a reasonable number of frames in the zheRealRacing 3. In addition, it is worth noting that in general, the performance of the smartphone is very good. The shell works quite smoothly and quickly.

If we recall that on your smartphone, you can not only play games, but also to communicate, it is necessary to tell about the quality of the voice speaker and microphone. With this devaysa all is well. Of course, the sound of the earpiece is not the cleanest, but it is good enough. But multimedia and high-quality speakerphone, because to miss a call will be quite difficult.

Work wireless interfaces no complaints. Satellites are in seconds, and the communication speed on the Wi-Fivysokaya.

To test the video playback we used benchmarkAnTuTuVideoTester, which eventually issued a predictable result, from which it follows that, for greater certainty, use a third-party player.

Honor 3C Lite is equipped with a battery capacity of 2000 mAh. The active use of the device worked for a little more than a day, with the active screen in 5 hours, 1 hour of calls and it’s a given that the transfer of data across the network was always active. If moderate appetites, then it really count for 2 days of battery life.

Screen

The smartphone features a 5-inch IPS-display with a resolution of 1280×720 pixels. Unfortunately, there is a layer of air between the screen and touch-sensitive surface, and oleophobic coating is absent. Automatic brightness control works well and smoothly. Display behavior on the street is quite good, but we must understand that during testing there were few sunny days.

Camera

Honor 3C Lite is equipped with two cameras, the main 8 megapixel and 2 megapixel front. The main camera can write video resolution of Full HD. In general, the camera application and its capabilities are standard. Present regime HDR, but there is no built-in filters. Settings are very modest.

Results

Honor 3C Lite – a simplified version of the smartphone Honor 3C. The main simplification touched RAM (it decreased from 2 GB to 1 GB), branded envelope and air gap at the screen. It is also worth noting that, despite the use of both devices have the main camera of 8 megapixel older model can take pictures of better quality. But do not forget about the cost of the device. At the time of writing it was estimated at about $ 150 – this is exactly $ 50 cheaper than the older model. Among the competitors is to provide LG D335 L Bello and Microsoft Lumia 535. Both phones are losing the quality of the display, but have a similar price. As a result, the hero of the review is a pretty good choice if budget is limited to the purchase of 150 USD, as for the money you get a device with a good screen, good performance and reasonable running time.

The post Review of the new smartphone Honor 3C Lite (Holly-U19) appeared first on Raqwe.

First there was the Huawei Honor 3, then – Huawei Honor 3C, trace – Huawei Honor 3X, which we were told, and now Honor 3C Lite. And if you think that the model number of Huawei features a leg break, you’re not alone. For example, our current experimental – a “simplified” version of the 3C, which in India is very successfully marketed under the name «Huawei Honor Holly», three “x”, so to speak. But this is not the nice cute smart.

Journalists agree that the Huawei Honor 3C Lite – a smartphone for the youth. Lightweight, stylish, inexpensive, moderately productive and a good camera. In short, the ability to fully correspond to the price. And let’s be honest from the beginning of 2900 UAH (about 9000 rubles, or $ 150) – this is a very loyal price. And if you need to purchase a smartphone even during the jumps course, this device can afford.

Appearance and ergonomics

In color box Tiffany (read – turquoise, or even easier – blue) has a very smart phone, USB-microUSB cable and adapter for the outlet. There are some slot with free space. If there is something, and was, in my configuration nothing at all left. Spartan set.

We can say that the design of the smartphone quiet and conservative, and it is possible – and that faceless lopatkoobrazny. Then choose to your liking. Our specimen black front and white behind, completely glossy, with rounded corners. There are black copy. His back cover is made under the skin and all it reminds Philips Xenium I908, only our camera unit in the center. Can not say anything about the black copy, but gloss white terribly easily soiled, exactly like the glass cover -oleofobnogo not.

Front 5-inch smartphone is fully covered with a small glass bordyurchikom on the edge. Chin smartphone more than the forehead, because the button is located below the screen. I climbed all the settings menu, but could not find where to set the time for the highlight of the touch buttons. And then it turned out that no backlight at all. So in the dark it is only necessary for memory to navigate. The display itself occupies 86% of the body frames are relatively small, and Above the screen is short earpiece, front camera of 2 MP and ambient light sensors and events.

At the top end is located audiodzhek 3.5 mm on the bottom – microUSB, shifted to the left, and a microphone, and on the right side – chrome power button and the volume key just above the middle. By the way, it is very comfortable, with a mean certain way, exactly lies beneath the finger at least for right-handers, even for left-handers. The back cover is removable, very tight, it is hard to remove and bad snaps. It’s very cool, do not be subsequently loose and play. And if bad snaps, on the right side will be seen clips.

Herself back again, and Mark glossy, slippery and smooth, very pleasant to the touch. In the center – the main camera of 8 MP, above it – an additional microphone for noise reduction, logo just below and short speaker. The sound is loud and good, it is easy to mute if we put on the table, or even more so – on the pillow. Under the removable cover has two slots for SIM cards, microSD slot for up to 32GB and a removable battery 2000 mAh.

In general, the smartphone is very well assembled, no backlash and groans. Cover a bit squeezed, but it is noticeable only when it deliberately squeeze. Huawei Honor 3C Lite good in the hand, even on slippery cover. Due to the parameters of 142 x 72 x 9,4 mm and a weight of 156 grams of the device is very comfortable. He’s a little bigger and heavier than its older brother 3C, but due to the rounded corners 5-inch tube can try to manage with one hand. But up to the top edge of the display you will make it unlikely.

Display – Honor 3C Lite

5-inch IPS-display covered with protective glass, scratches on it and does not appear, oleophobic coating did not get, so the prints are collected easily and rubbed so-so. Anti-reflective properties of the medium, dark tilted angles like and good, but at the same angle Shinichi under another – yellow. Permission to 5 inches singled HD-resolution, ie, the density of 293 ppi. Not bad and not good, normal such permission. Image not falling pixels, it looks decent.

The color rendition is quite natural shades vyrviglaznyh not observed, rich enough, the picture looks juicy. Brightness can build handles, automatic is also present. Maximum sufficient for bright days and the minimum bit overpriced, but it is a standard topic for a mainstream smartphones. Of «Play Market” put some skrinfiltr – and the problem is eliminated. Supports up to 10 simultaneous touches. In general, the screen is not bad, and most important, the lack of it – no oleophobic coating. Very unpleasant greasy filter through to watch a movie. So do not forget to wipe the display – and you will be happy.

Camera

The front camera of 2 MP and got the opportunity to “make a beautiful face” (you know that it works as krivoruky fotoshopschik). Editor Esquire fall in nervous horror. The images are tolerable only in good light, indoors under yellow lights are too languid self. The main camera of 8 MP with autofocus, F / 2.0 and flash shows very good results even in good light, although sometimes there are kinks with contrast. The darker, the noise in the photos above, detailing falls. At night, it is almost useless, and under artificial light yellow with a white balance problem. But in the afternoon and in the morning you can still make some good photos, juicy and bright. And yet – the sound of “shutter” does not turn off. In any way. Even rezime without sound.

Removes format FullHD, but it is better not to scale, but otherwise it will be as an example. And during shooting autofocus does not work well, so do not forget to poke a finger in the screen on the important objects. The menu itself camera does not deserve special attention, this is the usual mode of live stock photos, panoramas, improve the texture of the face, automatic shot detection face (do not forget to put a tick in the settings).

Features & Software

Honor 3C Lite are structured based on the quad MediaTek MT6582 c 1.3 GHz, 1 GB RAM and Mali-400 graphics. All of this – a very good filling for such a price, and together you can afford gonochki Asphalt 8 at medium graphics settings and even more so taymkillery a series of piano tiles or crossy road. I set myself Smash Hit, Voxel Rush Real Racing 3 and rushed like mad with all the reflections in the mirrors.

Synthetic tests give a little more than 19 thousand parrots, but this is not enough, if you like large numbers of synthetic tests, and it is currently approx for work and for life. Programs do not fly, the interface does not lag, toys go – well, what else do you want? Heated apparatus significantly, with the thermometer did not go, but in the area of pen camera you pripechet sympathetic.

Memory device 16 GB, of which slightly more than is available 13 GB, but smart poddredivaet cards up to 32 GB. To install, it is necessary to remove the lid. Simkarty hot can not be replaced – be kind, take out the battery. It smacks a bit of the past century, but you will forgive my fault-finding. But do not need to wear a clip! But again – the cap is removed tugovato, battery – too.

Powered gadget running Android 4.4.2 with redraw interface Emotion UI c firmware version Holly-U19. It looks like a complete firmware for the poor. Although it can also be purely my nitpicking. The special feature of the firmware – the lack of applications menu. All of them are based on the desktop of which may be countless, and stored in folders. There is a good set of animations, icons redrawn, but very amateur at these puhlyashi – icon third-party applications on the perimeter of the field is obtained.

There are four pre-defined profile, while two of the bottom (“Quiet” and “Meeting”) can not be edited. There is a simple mode screen with large icons like lyumii – if you want to give your smartphone your grandparents. It is possible to connect an extra monitor to Wi-Fi. Of the software preinstalled Opera suddenly and Yandex, Huawei online support (a group in the VC) Huawei device (Russian store huyaveev) and that enough is enough of this lawlessness. Perhaps these two applications are installed immediately because Russia was chosen the first market for the device. For the record – they are easy to remove. Smartphone even ask again will not be sure whether you. In general, I’m not bad to third-party firmware without the application menu, but wanted to change this.

Autonomy

2000 mAh. “But it’s very small!” – I thought when we first met. No softinushki to optimize battery consumption is not expected. Keeps baby nice, actually. About 4 hours of online video at maximum brightness. More than 15 hours of browsing in Chrome via Wi-Fi. Test planted smartphone for 7 hours. In the “I do not turn off the Internet and take notice” – two days, and in active use with calls, messengers, YouTube and social networks – at the end of the day to charge. If at all from the machine to keep up – about 13 hours. Very well.

Output – Honor 3C Lite

Huawei Honor 3C Lite – a very capable and a good smart phone for its price. $ 150 in terms of economic instability – best price on the device, and if you are trying to fit into this amount to this unit is worth a closer look. Housing solidly assembled in the hand is comfortable hrosho color display, no lag and cope with demanding toys. Main disadvantages: Mark screen and back cover, the camera Tuga in the dark, flashing an amateur. I recall that the lid are still under the skin, and you can change the firmware. With a camera and oleophobic coating is not poplyashesh, but I again remind: $ 150 – and the 5-inch device, albeit at MTC, but with HD-resolution will be. In short, in the loving hands of the duckling becomes a swan accurately, which means that you can take.

The post Honor 3C Lite – smartphone horoshist at a modest price appeared first on Raqwe.

The popularity of smartphones Huawei largely started from a series of Honor, which has attracted users a good price-performance ratio. Now the company has decided to allocate a separate brand Honor. On the home market these smartphones will be sold in the company’s online store. Smartphones under the new brand will try to compete with Xiaomi, which has become very popular in China, by its own methods. How successful would venture – time will tell, but we do look at the flagship smartphone Honor 6, which recently went on sale.

Honor 6 comes with a standard set of accessories, including a battery charger with an output current in 2A, cable and documentation.

Design and usability

Honor 6 is made in the style of the latest smartphones Huawei. Hull lines reminiscent of last year’s Honor 3 , and some design elements in common with Ascend P7.

The body is made according to the type of hamburger, back Honor 6 completely flat. Covers the entire front of the protective glass plate, and the side frame does not protrude above its surface. Above the screen you can see a thin earpiece, as well as the windows of the front camera and sensors. The indicator light is hidden under the dash to the left of the sensors. Side frames thin, 2.86 mm, and the display takes 75.7% of the area of ​​the panel. In addition, on the front side there is no manufacturer’s logo is used onscreen keys – this makes the smartphone looks more concise.

However, the rear panel also pleases the lack of clutter inscriptions – there is only a line of Honor logo and service information.

The back of the smartphone is made of a special six-layer composite material. According to the manufacturer, the same material used in aerospace.

Under the top transparent layer discernible pattern in fine point. In the case of a smartphone white panel fingerprints are virtually unnoticeable, they can be seen only at certain angles.

Camera, dual LED flash and speaker are flush with the back panel.

In three sidewalls Honor 6 passes plastic strip, which resembles the frame to Ascend P7. The left side is empty, on the upper side you can see the headset connector, the opening of the second microphone and the infrared transmitter. Control buttons are concentrated on the right side. Beneath them is a slot for Mini-SIM and memory cards. They covered a total cap that almost merges with the frame. MicroUSB connector and the main microphone hole are on the bottom.

Honor 6 perfectly assembled, all parts fit tightly to each other, the keys are firmly in place, the entire structure is already too tight.

As for the five-inch smartphone in Honor 6 sufficiently small dimensions of the case, it is comparable to most compact classmates.

This makes it comfortable to hold in your hand, Honor 6 easy to use. Ergonomics smartphone at a good level, despite the use of flat smooth panels, Honor 6 does not try to slip out of his hands. Power button is just below the thumb, located just above the volume rocker. They protrude slightly above the body, have a well defined pressing.

Display

6 Honor received a five-inch screen resolution of 1920 by 1080 pixels. Display brightness varies from 10.8 to 357 cd / m² and a contrast ratio is 1: 516. The screen is made by technology In-Cell – between the glass matrix and no air gap. This provides better readability of the screen in the sun, reduces the amount of glare, there is a feeling that application icons “are” directly on the glass.

Although Honor and isolated in a separate brand, the hero of the review is still designed in the walls of Huawei. Therefore screen smartphone traditionally well calibrated. From the reference value significantly deviates only gamma.

If we talk about the subjective impressions, the screen Honor 6 is comparable with other quality FullHD matrices. His soft natural colors pleasing to the eye, black and white look is established, the viewing angles are close to the maximum. A wide dimming range can comfortably use your smartphone in the dark, and on the street.

In addition, there is a good oleophobic coating, the regime increased sensitivity of the sensor to control the gloves, you can adjust the color temperature. Automatic brightness control works correctly in the switch panel has a slider that allows you to adjust the algorithm of the sensor.

Hardware Platform

Honor 6 was one of the most modern hardware platforms production HiSilicon. The system-on-chip 920 Kirin – a little simplified version of Kirin 925 installed in the flagship Huawei Mate7 . The key difference – there is no additional kernel Smart i3, responsible for the collection of indicators from different sensors. For the rest, this is the same processor configured to process technology and circuit big. LITTLE 28nm, with four energy-efficient cores Cortex-A7 (1,3 GHz), four productive Cortex-A15 (1,7 GHz) and the graphics core Mali-T628 MP4. Platform performance is complemented 3 GB of RAM, the amount of built-in storage is 16 GB (11.44 GB free), there is a slot for memory cards.

In synthetic tests Honor 6 shows good results, which are comparable with the level of current champions.

During normal operation, the performance of the smartphone no complaints. The shell runs smoothly, the program starts quickly, and 3 GB of RAM allow almost never watch reload applications. You can play all the popular games, but under continuous pressure is being felt slight heating of the body.

Wi-Fi modules and GPS working properly, their work does not raise any problems.

Honor 6 exists in several versions, to be sold in different markets. The differences between them are reduced to maintain the standards of communication, the number and volume of simkarty internal memory. The Ukrainian market will be supplied version H60-L04, but online stores are sold and other models.

Calls, multimedia

Basic telephone functionality is implemented in Honor 6 at an excellent level. Ringing loud speaker appeared, it sounds clean and nice, but due to the fact that it is located on the back, when the smartphone is on the table, the sound is muted by about a third, though still well visible.

Vibrating alert is average, well felt in his pockets and when the smartphone is on the table. Sound earpiece clean, caller’s voice sounds natural reserve volume is enough for a comfortable communicating in almost any environment. The manufacturer claims that the sensitivity of the antenna is increased by 3 dB, it should have a positive impact on the level of signal reception in areas with poor network coverage.

Music playback quality is on par with the other flagship smartphone, is a normal reserve volume. Built-in equalizer DTS makes the sound richer and more voluminous, adds low frequencies, which can be useful when listening to compositions of poor quality or when using inexpensive headphones. If desired, it can be disabled in the settings.

Support different codecs implemented at a good level in the test Antutu Video Honor 6 gaining 500 points.

The top of Honor 6 is an infrared port, it allows you to control various home appliances.

Operating system and shell

Honor 6 is running an operating system Android 4.4.2 KitKat, version of the shell EMUI 2.3, it is similar to that of the Huawei Ascend P7. In the first quarter of 2015 to upgrade to a smartphone should EMUI 3.0.

Fundamental functional differences between EMUI 2.3 and 3.0 do not, the difference is a little more simple design, a smaller number of transparent elements.

A set of system applications remained unchanged. The most interesting of them can be called “Phone Manager”. The program allows you to configure access to applications, notifications, analyze their energy consumption, use of data, it has a black list of calls and much more.

Operation time

In the case of the smartphone has a removable battery capacity of 3100 mAh. Set SmartPower 2.0 technologies should provide up to 65 hours of operation at low load, 30 hours in the loaded mode, and extreme power saving mode will limit the functionality of receiving calls and messages, but the last stretch 10% charge for 24 hours.

In our case, Honor 6 worked about 2 days at low load and day with the active usage profile, familiar to the author. Hours screen up to five hours.

While reading off all wireless communications, including the transmission of data in the mobile network, and the display brightness is set to 200 cd / m². When listening to music has an automatic data synchronization, data transfer. The volume level on 12 of the 15 possible levels. All music files in MP3, 320 Kbit / s.
