Honor X7a

Choosing a budget-friendly smartphone can be a challenge, especially when every peso counts. The new Honor X7a is an entry-level phone that retails for 7990 pesos, making it an attractive option for those with limited budgets. Design-wise, the Honor X7a's design is similar to its predecessor, the Honor X7, but with some minor tweaks. The rear camera bezel has been redesigned with a new rectangular housing and separate camera lenses. While the phone feels nice to hold, the back side can be a fingerprint magnet, making a case necessary. The 6.74-inch IPS screen is large and produces great colors with good contrast, although it can be too saturated at times. However, there are some issues with lag, especially when scrolling or tapping the screen quickly. This could be related to the phone's hardware. The quad-camera setup on the back takes decent photos in well-lit conditions, but struggles in low light or night mode. The front camera is also underwhelming, producing filtered photos that require touch-ups. Video recording is limited to 1080p at 30fps without optical stabilization. Performance-wise, the Honor X7a's specs are not impressive, but it can still run basic tasks and games like Asphalt 9 with graphic settings set to low. However, it struggles with more demanding games. On the bright side, the phone has a massive 6000mAh battery that can last up to three days. In conclusion, the Honor X7a is an okay phone for its price point of under 8000 pesos in this day and age. While it may not be the most powerful device, it has everything you might need from a smartphone, including dual SIM support, a big battery, and a decent camera. If budget is a concern, the Honor X7a is worth considering at its affordable price of 7990 pesos.

Honor X6b

The Honor X6b is a budget-friendly smartphone that offers impressive specs and features at an affordable price point. The phone's design is sleek and modern, with a comfortable weight and premium feel despite its budget tag. It's available in four vibrant color options, including Forest Green, Brilliant Purple, Ocean Cyan, and Midnight Black. The Honor X6b boasts a 6.56-inch display with decent HD+ resolution, providing clear visuals with good color accuracy. The phone is powered by the MediaTek Helio G85 chipset, which delivers smooth performance for everyday tasks like social media browsing, video streaming, and multitasking. However, it struggles with more demanding games. The camera setup features a 50MP primary sensor, depth sensor, and macro camera, taking decent photos in good lighting conditions but struggling in low-light scenarios. The selfie camera is average, while the video recording capability tops out at 1080p at 30fps without stabilization. One of the standout features of the Honor X6b is its massive 5,200mAh battery, which easily lasts two days on a single charge with regular use. Fast charging support up to 35W is also a significant plus. The phone runs Android 14 with MagicOS UI, offering a clean and easy-to-navigate interface. Connectivity options include 4G, VoLTE, and Band 20 support for better network coverage in rural areas. The Honor X6b is a solid choice for casual users seeking a dependable device at an affordable price point.
