Editorial report
Honor X5b technical sheet
The Honor X5b suits buyers looking for a basic Android phone with dual SIM and expandable storage; its main trade-offs are 64 GB of storage, a 13 MP camera, and 10 W charging. Storage can be expanded, but the 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB capacity put its hardware among the weakest and its storage among the lowest amounts for phones of its time.
The 6.56-inch TFT LCD display has a 720 × 1612 px resolution and a 90 Hz refresh rate, lower than that of most phones of its time. The 13 MP resolution is also among the lowest. Its battery has a 5,200 mAh capacity and supports 10 W charging, among the weakest charging figures; battery capacity itself is typical. The phone runs Android 14 and has two years of OS update support. It also includes dual Nano-SIM slots, NFC, USB Type-C, and a 3.5 mm audio jack. Overall, its display, camera, and connectivity are worse than most phones of its time, while its hardware is among the weakest. With a NeoScore of 4.4, the Honor X5b is a straightforward option for buyers who prioritize Android, dual SIM, and expandable storage over memory, camera resolution, and charging speed.
