Third-party reviews

What we like about Honor X60 Pro 5G (12GB + 512GB)

  • Extremely durable design with high drop resistance (up to 3 meters)
  • Excellent 6600mAh battery life, often lasting two days for typical usage, with 66W fast charging support
  • High-quality 6.78-inch curved AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, 1.5K resolution, and superior eye protection features (PWM dimming)
  • Slim and lightweight profile for comfortable one-handed use, which is rare for large-battery phones
  • Good overall performance for daily applications and general use due to the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 processor
  • High-resolution 108MP main rear camera capable of capturing detailed images in favorable lighting conditions
  • Stereo speakers provide a good multimedia experience
  • Supports satellite connectivity for emergency messaging (China specific feature)
  • Comes with a rich retail bundle including a case and 66W power adapter

What we don't like about Honor X60 Pro 5G (12GB + 512GB)

  • Front-facing 8MP camera performs relatively poorly, especially in low-light conditions
  • Average performance for demanding gaming tasks
  • Absence of expandable storage or a 3.5mm headphone jack
  • Lacks NFC and infrared remote functionalities, which may be a drawback for some users
  • Some users noted the large, single-lens camera bump looked unusual or excessive

Verdict

The Honor X60 Pro 5G, in its 12GB RAM and 512GB storage configuration, is a mid-range smartphone running Android 14 with MagicOS 8.0. Key features include a vibrant 6.78-inch curved AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and an impressive 3,000 nits peak brightness, powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 processor. A major pro is its massive 6,600mAh battery with 66W fast charging support and ultra-high drop resistance for enhanced durability. For photography, it offers a 108MP main rear camera and an 8MP front camera. A potential con is the absence of an expandable memory card slot, and for users outside China, the phone may lack built-in Google Play services and global ROM availability.
