Huawei Honor 4X is a mid-range Android smartphone that is built with sights on delivering powerful performance. The dual-SIM phablet packs a large HD touchscreen, powerful battery, an impressive camera configuration, and a fast eight-core processor, while also boasting 4G connection capability.
Build and Screen
Huawei Honor 4X sports a plastic chassis, which does not really reflect the high-end features sprinkled in. While the phone does well in terms of thinness, at 8.65mm, it was not able to match that in lightness, weighing in at 170 grams.
The build quality is decent enough for an affordable smartphone. The Huawei Honor 4X sports a large 5.5-inch display, placing it in the phablet range. The IPS touchscreen has an HD, 720 x 1280 pixels (720p) resolution for 267 ppi in pixel density and offers wide-viewing angle. The phone has a 70.86% screen-to-body ratio.
Camera and Storage
Huawei decked out Honor 4X with an impressive snapper combo. On the rear is a 13-megapixel camera with LED flash, autofocus and Face detection features. The main camera, which has an F2.0 wide aperture, boasts Full HD (1080p) video recording capability.
You also get an equally noteworthy 5-megapixel front-facing camera for selfies and video calling.
Performance and OS
Huawei Honor 4X looks like a device that is intended to deliver solid performance, with its octa-core Kirin 620 processor running at 1.2 GHz. The 64-bit chip, which is paired with a generous 2 GB of RAM and an ARM Mali-450 GPU, delivers 40 percent better performance than 32-bit chips.
The device runs on Android 4.4 KitKat software, coated with Huawei’s EMUI 3.0 skin.
Additional Specification
Users will be able to enjoy super-fast mobile connection speeds with support for 4G LTE (Cat 4). A large 3000mAh, with a rated 48-hour battery life, provides the power needed to get the Huawei Honor 4X running for hours.
Huawei Ascend 4X comes with dual-SIM capability, enabling you to separate work from play. Its dual silicon microphone design, combined with a noise-reduction technology, ensures crystal clear calls. Inbuilt storage memory is 8 GB, extendable by up to 32 GB using a microSD card.

Huawei Honor 4X is not yet available in Nigeria. When available, you can buy it at leading online stores in Nigeria. Huawei Honor 4X price in Nigeria should range from 35,000 to 45,000 depending on your location in the country.
