Honor X8a reviews by real users Honor X8a

I bought it when it was new (two years ago), it cost 22 thousand then, and I bought it, but then I was disappointed when the price dropped to 13 thousand. But despite my failure, the phone is very decent. The phone design is not bad, nothing superfluous, except for the 100 MP inscription under the camera. The camera design is quite simple and typical, but it looks good. I'm surprised, but the phone is very resistant to falls; I've dropped it more than once, and not just while sitting or standing, but once even down the stairs (it wasn't intentional, it just flew out of my pocket, I was practically already on the first floor), and there weren't any scratches or chips on it. The convenience of a phone can be defined in different ways: the convenience of the interface and the operating system itself, or the thickness, height of the phone, how it fits in the hand, but in my opinion, both are comfortable in the phone. The operating system is understandable, you can customize the phone to suit yourself, and the phone fits in the hand, not perfectly, but not badly.

But the phone is far from the most powerful, and demanding games lag a bit. Of course, it depends on the type of games and how optimized they are, but I still don't think it's a phone for gamers. The speakers are pretty standard, in my opinion; they're not quiet, but they're not particularly loud either, but they're enough for me. The camera takes good photos and videos during the day. Maybe I've just never seen a flagship camera, but for me, it's a good camera. The zoom isn't great, of course, but I don't really use it, so that's okay. At night, the camera takes poor photos and videos; there's a lot of goosebumps, graininess, and the quality deteriorates. It takes decent daytime selfies, though; you can apply a filter before taking the photo, blur the background, set a timer, or use enhancements to smooth out wrinkles and remove pimples, and so on. But the blur is certainly not perfect; there are some imperfections. But the battery is weak, it lasts less than a day, it’s good that the phone has very fast charging.

The thing is, after two years, the phone barely lags and feels great. It's a very good phone for 12-14 thousand rubles, I recommend it!
