Deal on Huawei Honor 6X for under $150

Now you can get the Huawei Honor 6X 32GB unlocked smartphone for a low $149.99. This is the best deal for a mid range smartphone.

The Honor 6X is not always the top choice, mainly because it was running an older version of Android that had a few problems. But that was quickly corrected with an update to Android 7.0 and EMUI 5.0 back in May, and since then things have been smooth sailing for the mid-range value handset even when it cost you $250 back then.

Now, the Honor 6X is receiving a permanent price drop to $150 to be exact, $149.99, since every penny counts and that makes it even more affordable and accessible to the average buyer looking for an unlocked phone.

There aren't a lot of really compelling devices at that price range in the unlocked space, only the Moto G5 Plus comes to mind, and it starts at $229.99 for a model that isn't as well-equipped as the Honor 6X.

The camera was above average for the price, and that the phone's battery life was fantastic with its 3340mAh capacity. The 5.5-inch display is big and bright, and there's plenty of power in the Kirin 655 chip along with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage.

As for the software, now that it's running Android 7.0, we're a lot happier with the phone. EMUI 5.0 on the Honor 6X is the same as on the $399.99 Huawei Mate 9 (which is receiving a permanent $200 price drop of its own), and while it's not perfect, it's so much better than it used to be.

At $149.99, there isn't many options outside that can compete with the Honor 6X from a price-to-performance standpoint. It's available at Amazon, Best Buy and other online retailers.
