Editorial report
Honor X8a technical sheet
The Honor X8a suits people looking for a large display and a slim phone, but its performance and battery capacity are lower than those of most phones of its time. The 6.7″ display has a resolution of 1080 × 2388 px; its 90 Hz refresh rate is lower than that of most phones launched around the same time. Its 89.6% screen-to-body ratio is higher than most, while its 7.5 mm thickness is among the best of its time. At 179 g, it is also lighter than most phones of its time.
The main camera’s 100 MP resolution is among the highest of its time, alongside a 5 MP ultrawide camera and a 2 MP macro camera. It has no optical image stabilization. Performance is worse than that of most phones of its time; the MediaTek Helio G88 comes with 6 GB of RAM and eMMC 5.1 storage. Its 4500 mAh battery has less capacity than most, while 22.5 W charging is typical. Android 12, NFC, a 3.5 mm audio jack, and dual Nano-SIM round out the features.
This version has 6 GB / 128 GB; the Honor X8a is sold in configurations from 6 GB / 128 GB to 8 GB / 256 GB. Its overall NeoScore is 4.9. It is a fit for anyone prioritizing a large screen, a slim design, and high camera resolution, while accepting the limits on performance and battery capacity.
