Honor 7x to be unveiled Oct 11th!

[Djlarocca]

Looks like the successor to the honor 6x will be unveiled October 11th. Rumors include a Kirin 670 chipset, 4gb ram, 64 GB of internal storage along with a bezel-less display. If this comes to the states at a reasonable price I might have to make a jump from my honor 8.

I will certainly give it a good look! I nearly got the 6x!

 

[Djlarocca]

Yeah, I love my Honor 8 but lately these mid-range devices with their power efficiency are really temping me. I've come to the realization that battery life is my top priority. If this thing can get 2 days out of a charge I'm sold!

i don't really see it as being 2 days battery, at least for moderate to heavy usage. the only phone that i know of that can do this would be the moto z play.

 

[Djlarocca]

Well, here's hoping for a 1+ day battery life.

I think that that would be achievable, based on how it is specd

It's not really designed to cull people from a 6x,probably people who are using other phones.

More rumors. Looking like a 18:9 screen is all but confirmed.

That's good. I love the new wider displays.

 

[Djlarocca]

Yeah, if it does come to the states, I think it'll do well as itll be one of the first budget phones with a bezel-less design.

 

[pkcable]

Tomorrow! Tomorrow! I love ya tomorrow!

 

[Djlarocca]

Tomorrow! Tomorrow! I love ya tomorrow!

Glad I'm not the only excited one!

 

[dpham00]

Is it coming state side?

 

[Djlarocca]

Is it coming state side?

Don't know yet, hopefully tomorrow will shed some light if it comes over here. It would probably do pretty well if it did as it'll be the first 18:9 Budget phone stateside.

 

[Djlarocca]

Looks pretty good! MicroUSB though?! And no word yet on US debut. Still if it's anything like the 6x debut, it'll be released several months after the Chinese version.

Micro usb is still common in this price range. Looks really good for the price though

True, and yeah price is excellent. I wonder if they can keep the price in the same ballpark if and when it comes to the US.

I'm sure the importers like Gearbest and Aliexpress will have it for those who JUST can't wait.

Ha true. Anybody have any experience importing phones? Not that I'm planning to, I just see deals come up all the time and am curious about the process of buying on these sites.
