In terms of sound quality, the Honor X1 packs four 10W speakers and two 0.5L independent sound chambers are installed inside, bringing a theater-level surround sound. The TV models also feature a large 1L sound cavity, 31-segment EQ sound adjustment with the most advanced Huawei Histen audio processing algorithm.
