Following its launch in the China market end of last year, the honor 6X makes its global debut at CES 2017. George Zhao, President of honor, shares the growth of honor in the United States since its inception into the market last year – with the honor 5X.

The honor 6X features a Bézier curved-inspired design that is reminiscent of the Earth’s horizon. Its 5.5-inch FHD display with 2.5D curved glass protection in paired with a Huawei Kirin 655 Octa-core processor and Mali-T830 MP2 GPU. The 6X is currently running on Android 6.0 Marshmallow with its proprietary EMUI 4.1, with upgrades to Android 5.0 Nougat and EMUI 5.0 to be rolled out within 2017Q1/2. The model comes in two variants: 3GB RAM with 32GB storage or 4GB RAM with 64GB storage.

While all the details of the model had the been out for some time now, availability and/or pricing outside of China wasn’t made available until its product launch event in Las Vegas today. Malaysia is included in the list of countries where the honor 6X will be made available sometime this month.

Only the international pricing has been made available: US$249.99 and US$299.99 ( ≅ RM1,125 and RM1,350) for the 3GB and 4GB variants respectively. Given the price different between the US market and China market (999 Chinese Yuan and 1,599 Chinese Yuan / ≅ RM647 and RM1,035 respectively), we anticipate it be fall somewhere in the middle. Perhaps similarly priced as the honor 5X, between RM800 to RM900.
