In October of last year, HONOR unveiled the 6X, the follow-up to its popular HONOR 5X. The device, which was initially only available in China, is now coming to the US and a few European markets. The company has announced the news today at CES 2017 in Las Vegas.
In the US, pre-orders for the device start tomorrow, January 4, while sales will kick off on January 10.

In Europe, the device will go on sale tomorrow, January 4, in quite a few countries including the UK, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, and the Netherlands. The device can be purchased from Vmall.eu and Amazon for just €249.
The HONOR 6X sports a 5.5-inch 1080p display, a HiSilicon Kirin 655 processor, 3GB of RAM, 32GB of on-board storage and microSD expansion. HONOR plans on releasing a version with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage sometime in Q1 2017, with a price tag of $299.99/€299.
Perhaps its biggest selling point is the rear-facing dual-camera setup with 12 and 2MP sensors. In addition, it sports a metal construction, a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor and a 3,440mAh battery. While it only runs Android 6.0 Marshmallow out of the box, an update to Android 7.0 Nougat is expected soon.
