an honest review of the honor 5x

[Sento]

I saw this video by tek syndicate, he's pretty legit and it kinda eye opening about the 5x... thing is huawei has hyped and marketed it to hell and back again, and i feel as android users we shouldn't just give into hype like some kinda iDiot - a couple deal breakers for me, even with the specs it has on paper, it struggles and basically can't handle any 3d, and even on daily use its quite sluggish. I think for 20 bucks more the moto g3 is infinitely better, and if you can spend 200$ on a new phone, you may as well pay the extra 20$.

though really it frustrates me how with every cellphone you have to pick your poison. the samsung galaxy s phones would have been perfect, but i hate how you have to buy the specific model whether you want LTE for tmobile or ATT, cant have both.

moto g3 is good, but only 720p screen.

lets not get started on iphones.

i have had terrible luck with google nexus phones, but apart from that i hate how they dont have expandable memory...

asus zenfone is considered revolutionary, first cellphone with an intel processor and 4gb ram, but then the battery life is completely bs even though by tech specs it should be very good....

Fixed that for you. At the top right of the thread is a "Thread Tools" menu where you can edit your own thread titles.

As far as not being able to play 3D games, I've had no trouble playing any games. There is lag, but I find it primarily when interacting with EMUI (e.g. homescreen transitions, task switching, opening the camera, etc.). I have played several games, including the entire Room trilogy with no trouble.

No reason for anyone in the market for a new phone to not sign-up,regardless of what type of phone you had in mind.
How often does the typical J.Q. Public get a chance to really test drive a phone,before buying.............
