Third-party reviews

What customers like about Honor Pad X6 LTE (3GB + 32GB)

  • Loud and clear audio from dual-speaker setup
  • Support for Honor Magic-Pencil stylus and keyboard accessories
  • LTE connectivity allows for mobile data and GPS on the go

What customers don't like about Honor Pad X6 LTE (3GB + 32GB)

  • Lack of pre-installed Google Play Services requires using Huawei AppGallery or sideloading
  • Low screen resolution (1280 x 800) results in low pixel density (156 PPI)
  • No support for fast charging, leading to slow recharge times for the 5100mAh battery
  • Limited performance from the Kirin 710A chipset, making it unsuitable for heavy gaming
  • Basic camera quality (5MP rear/2MP front) that struggles in low light
  • Inconsistent software update support for budget models

Verdict

The Honor Pad X6 LTE is a budget-friendly 9.7-inch tablet powered by the Kirin 710A octa-core processor, equipped with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of expandable storage. Key characteristics include a lightweight 460g aluminum body, a 5100mAh battery supporting 10W charging, and a WXGA IPS display with a resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels. Its main pros are the integrated 4G LTE connectivity for on-the-go use, dual-speaker system for immersive audio, and a sleek, portable design that supports stylus input. However, notable cons include the lack of Google Play Services, relatively low screen resolution with high reflectivity, and modest camera performance from its 5MP rear and 2MP front sensors.
