The device features a massive6.5-inch FHD+ IPS LCD display, with minimal bezels on either side, a small non-intrusive notch and a chin that measures just 4.25mm.

The Honor 8X follows in the footsteps of the widely popular Honor 7X that was launched in India last year and took the mid-range market by storm, thanks to its great cameras, premium build quality and impressive performance. The upcoming device builds up on the legacy of its successor, bringing an even more premium glass sandwich design, a decent camera spec bump and a significantly larger display.
