Of course while specifications are one aspect of a new smartphone, features, design preference, and the user experience also come into play. To show more on this we’ve embedded a Huawei Honor 5X vs OnePlus X comparison video below this article. It offers a nicely concise look at both of these smartphones, and one thing that’s immediately noticeable is the size difference.
The video shows both handsets from many angles offering a good opportunity for some close-up looks at the devices, and then checks out the performances (both benchmarks and real-world usage). A Geekbench 3 benchmark test shows the scores attained by each, though we won’t give away the results, as we don’t want to ruin the suspense. The software experiences are also discussed before moving on to the battery life of the phones and pricing difference.
In the wrap-up you’ll hear the reviewer neatly sum up that either of these phones should make you happy, and ultimately it’s really down to personal preference. When you’ve taken a look at the video it would be really good to hear your verdicts on this Huawei Honor 5X vs OnePlus X showdown. Are you more likely to buy the Honor 5X or the latest phone from OnePlus?
