    Another brilliant video mate👍,been looking for a super cheap phone to use as a 2nd phone,not gonna game on it,just a bit of twitter,RUclips,and the fingerprint scanner will come in handy for my banking apps….got a discount on it for 90 notes,so jobs a good’un😀
    It was between this and the Nokia G22…..what swayed me towards the Honor x6a was my tablet…..watched a vid of yours a few months back covering the honor pad x9….you gave it a good review,so I steamed in there and bought it,£159 from Argos….for the price…probably one of the best tablets I’ve ever had…so this x6a will link up with it nicely👍
    Love the way your vids literally cover EVERYTHING….and the magnifying lens on the screen made me chuckle🤣,your vids are appreciated Mate,I watch some tech RUclipsrs and they’ve got thousands upon thousands of subs,some are great,some average and some pretty sh£*te….you’re in the great category👍✌️

      Hey John! Ah man, appreciate your feedback! Thank you so much for your kind words! Honestly my aim is to be able to provide the viewer a full comprehensive review of the device and I try my best to cover everything. I’m glad I’ve been able to do that for you and inform you enough for you to be able to decide whether or not to actually purchase a device, makes me very proud to hear comments such as yours and I’m glad that my aim is being achieved.
      Thanks for putting me in the great category 😃 that itself is very inspiring and motivating!
      Take care bud 👍✌️

      Hey Richard, appreciate your positive feedback. It's true that the HONOR X6a might have seemed like a potential upgrade, but that definitely wasn’t the case, I feel like HONOR (and other manufacturers) just throw everything at the wall to see what sticks.

    • @typicaltechlad
      @typicaltechlad  9 месяцев назад +1

      Hey! Honestly the chip used in this phone (Meditatek Helio G36) is not a very good performing chip. If you were okay with low graphics settings then maybe it will suffice but prolonged gaming will make performance worse. Between this and the Moto E13 (which also had a low end chip) I would pick the E13 as better overall phone too.

    • @typicaltechlad
      @typicaltechlad  7 месяцев назад

      Hi, yes the phone does have the traditional navigation keys. You are normally given the option to choose on setup if you want gestures or the three-key navigation but if not these can be changed by heading to Settings > System & updates > System navigation and selecting Three-key navigation. Hope this helps 👍

      Hi, thank you for your feedback! Glad you enjoyed 👍 between those 2 phones, I would have to say the A14 is your better option if it’s using the MediaTek Helio G80 chipset though, as the Exynos 850, as far as I can see, does not perform as well and is more on par with the X6a which uses the MediaTek Helio G36. All 3 chips are in the ‘low/entry level’ class so you can’t expect much at all when it comes to gaming, they will have a limited graphics/FPS settings available only

    Battery lasts for 7 days If you ccharge IT from 40 percent to 85 percent
    IT Last this time with about 30 minutes of calls
    7 alarms during the week
    No Video gameplay
    No streaming
    Looking at the mobile about 10 times Just for checking time
    No WhatsApp No other social Networks
    Im using IT exactly Like written Here
    And im using IT for a month now
    The battery to me is Not that strong
    I was Not expecting about five percent Energy loss on one day
    Just receiving about two calls a week
    I Got two calls about 30 minutes Long so i will Check in IT again
    But to me ITS Not a very good battery
    I was expecting about 15 days with a Brand new mobile Phone that IS Not using WhatsApp , mobile Data to Go to the Internet and gaming in between
    So If i would Play Games i Had to Charge IT after three days and If im using WhatsApp or Other Messenger Like stereo Type people using IT about 2 hours a day or more , watching RUclips Videos listening music , this battery hast to be charged maybe every Second day
    I will fully Charge IT now once
    Maybe This will activate the battery
