It is finally here. Yesterday, Huawei introduced us to their newest cell phone, the Huawei Honor 6 Plus. Earlier today, Huawei announced that pre-sales for the Huawei Honor 6 Plus in China would begin at 10:08 AM for 1999 RMB (322.99 USD). At the same time, they also announced that the Huawei Honor Play 4X, which has also just been released, would also go on sale and would cost 799 RMB (129.10 USD).

The Huawei Honor 6 Plus packs some great specifications. It sports a 5.5-inch 1080p display screen, uses the 1.8Ghz Huawei Kirin 925 processor, and has 3GB RAM. It uses the new EMUI 3.0 as its operating system and is powered by a 3600mAh battery. Its biggest feature is its 8mp dual-camera design with an F2.0 aperture. It comes with many features that let you take great photos. For example, it has a feature that lets you take photos first and then focus afterwards. It also has 32GB ROM which can be expanded via Micro SD card up to 128 GB and is a dual SIM phone.

The Huawei Honor Play 4X is no slouch either. Its CPU chip is the Kirin 620 processor from Huawei’s HiSilicon. It also has 1GB RAM.

As we approach the end of 2014, many cell phone companies are making their final releases of the year. OnePlus is planning to hold a launch event for its new products today. One of them is said to be a wearable device that can monitor your heart rate. In addition, Meizu will soon launch its new sub-brand, the Meizu Blue Charm. The first phone that will be released under this brand is the Meizu Blue Charm Note which has a 5.5-inch display screen. 

Of all the phones of 2014, which do you think will come out as the winner?

Huawei is ready to take their cellphones to the 64-bit 4G era with its newest device. Although they will not hold a launch event for its new products until December 16, they have already started pre-sales for one of their newest products, the Huawei Honor Play 4X which is the first device to use the Kirin 620. It is said to cost X99 RMB.

The Kirin 620 is a high-speed 64-bit octa-core processor from HiSilicon, a Shenzhen-based company that produces CPU processors. It is completely owned by Huawei. The Kirin 620 processor uses 8 A53 cores and offers powerful performance. Its graphics processing unit (GPU) is the Mali 450. With this processor, the GPU performance for the device that uses it increases by 20%.

The new Huawei Honor Play 4X’s overall specifications are basically the same as the original except for the processor. It sports a 5.5-inch 720p display screen, has a 5mp front-facing camera and 13mp rear-facing camera, and runs the Android 4.4 operating system. It is powered by a 3000mAh battery. The low-end version will have 1GB RAM while the high-end version will have 2GB RAM. Users can buy gold versions of this phone.

In addition, regarding the price, some reports say that the low-end edition will cost 799 RMB ($128.83) while the high-end edition will cost 999 RMB ($161.08). Of course we cannot rule out the possibility that it will be cheaper.

Anyway, as said earlier, this is just one of Huawei’s new devices that will be launched on December 16. You cannot help but wonder what else the company has in store for us. Could it be another cell phone or a tablet? Maybe a power bank? We have no choice but to wait until then.
