Huawei Announces the Octa-Core Honor 3X Pro

Huawei has announced a new octa-core phone and the successor to the not-so-old Honor 3X in the Honor 3X Pro. The phone lies in the mid-budget category.

Still there are a few quite respectable specs to be found. You get a 5.5″ Full HD display at the front. The design is nothing to write about, except that the phone has a faux-leather back, same as the Galaxy S5.

Under the hood, you get a 1.7Ghz octa-core processor with 2 GB RAM and 32 GB storage, expandable via microSD. The back houses a 13 megapixel camera, capable of shooting 1080p video. The front also has a 5 mp shooter for all those selfies.

Connectivity options include Bluetooth, 3G and Radio. Here are the full specs of the phone:

• Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean customized
• 5.5″ display with Full HD resolution
• Faux-leather back
• 1.7Ghz octa-core MediaTek MT6592 processor
• 2 GB RAM with 32 GB internal storage, expandable
• 13 megapixel rear-camera with Full HD 1080p video
• 5 megapixel front-camera
• Bluetooth 4.0, microUSB 2.0, 3G, FM Radio, GPS
• 3,000 mAh battery
• Available in Black and White

The phone will be available in either Black or White. It will be priced at an attractive price of around $270 when it will hit the markets later this year.
