HUAWEI Honor 8X (64GB + 4GB RAM) 6.5 HD 4G LTE GSM Factory Unlocked Smartphone - International Version No Warranty JSN-L23 (Blue)

Very good phone for the money. Love the color and the heft. It feels good in the hand although very slippery without a case. Seems very well made and is very much like my Galaxy. Will not connect to my work wi-fi. Excellent camera and great functionality

When I first read the Huawei/Honor was bring out the 8X I was super stoked. I had the 7X and loved it, but I wanted something that was quicker and had more native storage. I followed the release of the 8X and was crestfallen when it was not released for the US, but recently I was informed that the JSN-L23 version worked for the US. I checked it out and verified the bands and became a very happy camper. I ordered this phone for my early birthday present. The first device I received was awesome... but it was the wrong color. Amazon sent me out a replacement that was correct so that I have this gorgeous blue phone in my hand. I hed my wife give the first phone a try and she really liked it so I had to order her one as well. PROS * Price - You get what you pay for and then some. This phone could easily sell for double and still be a decent buy. * Battery life - no complaints here. I can go all day and still have plenty of juice left. Im not a gamer but I travel every day for work and use my phone for my paperwork, consulting maps, and as my ereader. * Screen - my first thought on a 6.5 1080p screen was, will it look good enough? Yes, it does. It looks great. It is nice and bright. The notch is not too big and leaves plenty of room for notifications and status icons. The pre-installed screen protector was a very nice addition, as well. * Hardware - This a fast phone. The build is Gorilla glass on the front and back with metal edges, and the included clear case adds extra protection. It has a nice heft in the hand. The fingerprint sensor is dead on in the proper location and is very snappy. Game performance is good and the sound can get more than loud enough. I havent encountered any lag or stuttering in my day to day use thus far. * Cell Reception - I am on Cricket which uses AT&Ts network. I havent had any issues with cell reception. While the L23 version has bands 2, 4, and 5 it does lack bands 12 and 17. As I said above I travel daily for my job and a lot of that is by interstate and I can say that the only areas I have bad reception are the areas that have always had bad reception. I have 4G almost all the time. * Software - my phone is still on Android 8.1.0. From what I have found online Honor pulled the impending update to 9.0 due to some issues that came to light but they still plan on putting it out once these are resolved. I cant speak on EMUI as I use Nova Launcher on all my phones. CONS * Size - No matter what people say size does matter. This is a large phone. I am a big guy with big hands and it can still be a stretch to reach across the screen with my thumb. Hopefully anyone buying a 6.5 phone understands that that is part of the deal. * Camera - while I have not had any issues with the camera I have hear that some people do. Im not a photographer so as long as the image is clear I am fine with it. My pictures thus far have all looked good, but just know that this is a point of contention with some. * Micro USB - this, to me, was really disappointing. I knew about it before I bought the phone but it still bothered me. I have plenty of micro USB cables and all from previous phones (Im looking at you, Honor 7X) but it would have been much nicer to have had USB C. The bottom line is that I am very happy with this device. It is a killer bargain for the price, plus it really turns heads with its looks. Buy it.

I brought it for my younger brother. We live in NY and use cricket as our phone service and there isnt any issues regarding the cellular data and wifi which was my main concern because its an international model. The phone itself was bigger than expected which was not a bad thing. Overall its good.

This is pretty good phone to use in the USA, even though, it is a international version with not warranty in the USA. The last part is clear(Warranty) However, the seller did not mentioned that they are selling this phones with the system updated blocked to the latest updated (Pie/EMUI 9.0 Android) The seller (Mobile International LLC) should have detailed that part of this product, regardless. I felt like I was cheated. There is reason why developers work days and nights created new updates. What is the point to spend $200 some dollars in a phone that it is not allow to be up to date with the latest update. Update: On May 15, following an executive order from President Donald Trump effectively banning Huawei from US communications Networks. Then on May 19, Google cuts off Huawei phones from future Android updates. What does the Google block mean for Huawei phone users? Google has pulled Huaweis Android license blocking Huawei from using Android apps on its devices. At the moment, Huawei phones run on Googles Android mobile operating system (OS) and the security features which come with Android, will continue to be available on existing Huawei devices, so it seems like your current Huawei devices is safe for now. However, some Huawei models included Honor 8X and Huawei p20 pro will NOT be possible to download or receiving the latest updates, stable Android 9.0 Pie/EMUI and EMUI 9.1 these two updates are necessary for the best performance.

I purchased this phone as the last in a long line of honor phones. From the 4x to here, and I think this one has surpassed the prior ones in most every manner, it feels glamorous and is responsive even after months of use. However, a case is a necessity. Even with a case, I shattered the glass back of the screen after maybe a month.

Muy bueno en todo, pero su batería fallaron no por la carga sino que se inflaron y se dañó la parte tercera, tomé una aguja y la pinché y está funcionando como nueva y le puse una carcaza nueva y está como nuevo.

Bought from MVD Mobile and got the JSN-L23. Works with metropcs. this is the best phone for your buck. i love the Huawei Honor Xs. Ive own the 5x, 6x. and now the 8x. so far i love it. i would recommend this phone for anyone looking for a good quality phone for a good price.

Recibido en la fecha indicada, el modelo (JSN-L23) y de color azul, tal como lo quería. Actualizó automáticamente a la versión Android 9 (Pie) y EMUI 9.1. Llevo 2 semanas de uso y el funcionamiento es excelente.

Excellent and phenomenal phone overall for the price. Dual SIM is very easy to use and understand. Screen quality, speed and overall functioning of the phone is outstanding including the camera. camera and screen resolution quality is superior to the Samsung phones. The only thing missing is availability of good selection of phone cases especially phone holsters. I wish this company would build in the same functionality regarding icons organization and other things that Samsung has, thats the only negative but now that Ive been using it frequently, I have noticed sometimes the speed is a little slow, both streaming videos and navigating

Warning! This phone doesnt work with t-mobile 4g although it says it compatible with t-mbile, make phone call is ok, 4g doesnt work. false advertisement
