    Honor 6 Plus review - Flat, thin, and feature-filled phablet with more than 3 day battery life

    The Huawei Honor series of smartphones have always been about value and quality in nicely designed package. Rounding out the previous Honor 3C LiteHonor 4CHonor 4X and Honor 6 family is the Huawei Honor 6 Plus. Like the Honor 6 before it, it features 4G LTE Cat6 connectivity and IR (infra-red) blaster for universal remote control but also adds on a dual rear camera, massive 3600 mAh battery and improved HiSilicon Kirin 925 processor. Is it just a bigger Honor 6 or more than that? We find out with our review of the Honor 6 Plus smartphone.

  • Rumours: Honor 7 smartphone to be priced at $599 (RM2239)?

    Rumours: Honor 7 smartphone to be priced at $599 (RM2239)?

    The Honor 7 smartphone rumours keep on coming and this time reports indicate that it could be priced at $599 (RM2239). Earlier leaks have it coming on 30 June 2015 with features that include a metal body and fingerprint scanner. Leaked pictures show it to follow the same design as the Huawei Mate 7 but with a smaller 5-inch display. Tech specs remain unconfirmed but rumours say it could have a Kirin 935 processor, 3GB / 4GB RAM, 16GB / 64GB storage, a 5-inch FHD display, a 3280 mAh battery and a 13MP rear camera with OIS. While there is no news yet of a Malaysia release date or pricing details, we expect the Honor 7 to be just a bit higher than the current Honor 6 Plus which retails at RM1399. This would place the Honor 7 around RM1600 to RM1800 but as always with such rumours, do take this with a good pinch of salt, as things could change drastically when it actually arrives in Malaysia.

    Huawei Honor 6 Plus unboxing video, some extra freebies included

    The Huawei Honor 6 Plus was recently launched alongside the Honor 4C at the recent Honor Malaysia 1st Anniversary Celebrations and introduced a number of interesting features which included a Kirin 925 processor, dual parallel rear camera with dual LED flash and more. Priced at RM1399, Honor Malaysia were kind enough to drop off the Honor 6 Plus for review here at TechNave.com and we've done a quick unboxing. While the usual suspects of a pair of headphones, a charger and microUSB cable were revealed the unboxing also showed that Honor Malaysia have also packed along dual screen protectors for the front and back. Now if only all of us had the skills to put it on with no bubbles. We're certainly thankful for the extra value Honor Malaysia have added to the Honor 6 Plus package but we'll probably look up some more skilled help for the screen protector application. The hands-on and review are coming soon so stay tuned for those but for now you can check out our unboxing video in this article.

  • Honor's 1st Anniversary celebrations sees launch of Honor 6 Plus and Honor 4C for RM1399 and RM529

    Honor's 1st Anniversary celebrations sees launch of Honor 6 Plus and Honor 4C for RM1399 and RM529

    Honor Malaysia recently held their first Anniversary celebrations with the launch of the Honor 6 Plus and Honor 4C smartphones. Priced at RM1399, the Honor 6 Plus offers a unique dual rear camera setup, 5.5-inch display and 1.8GHz octa-core HiSilicon Kirin 925 processor. Other tech specs include 3GB RAM, 32GB storage, 8MP front camera, 4G LTE Cat6 connectivity, an IR blaster and a metal frame design much like the Honor 6. The Honor 4C on the other hand is priced from RM529 with a 64-bit 1.2GHz octa-core HiSilicon Kirin 620 processor, 2GB RAM, 8GB storage, 5-inch display at 720 x 1280 pixel resolution, 13MP rear camera, 5MP front camera and 2550 mAh. Both will be available from 29 April 2015 from 3.08pm on VMALL.my but do check out the hands-on photos in this article.

  • Honor 6 Plus and Honor 4C coming to Malaysia on 28 April 2015

    Honor 6 Plus and Honor 4C coming to Malaysia on 28 April 2015

    In conjunction with their first Anniversary Celebrations, Honor Malaysia will be launching their new dual-camera Honor 6 Plus and Honor 4C smartphones for Malaysia on 28 April 2015. While you can still register up until 6pm today for the Anniversary Celebration, only 30 lucky winners will be selected but there are guaranteed door gifts. The new Honor 6 Plus on the other hand offers a unique 13MP dual rear camera setup, 5.5-inch display and 1.8GHz octa-core HiSilicon Kirin 925 processor. Other tech specs include 3GB RAM, 32GB storage, 8MP front camera, 4G LTE connectivity, an IR blaster and a metal frame design much like the Honor 6. The Honor 4C on the other hand is likely to place in between the Honor 3C Lite and the Honor 4X. Featuring a similar tough polycarbonate backside the Honor 4C shrinks the screen down to a 5-inch display but retains a HD 720 x 1280 pixel resolution. It will likely still pack in a 64-bit 1.2GHz octa-core HiSilicon Kirin 620 processor with 2GB RAM and 8GB storage along with a 13MP rear camera and 5MP front camera. The smaller screen will also mean a slightly smaller battery at 2550 mAh. Stay tuned and we may have some hands-on with the new devices just next week. 

  • Rumours: Honor 6 Plus coming to Malaysia soon for below RM1300?

    Rumours: Honor 6 Plus coming to Malaysia soon for below RM1300?

    Thanks to an anonymous tipster, it appears that apart from the Honor 4X, Malaysia could also soon see the Honor 6 Plus smartphone as well. Recently spotted in Malaysia, the smartphone features a unique dual-camera setup that allows you to change apertures and focus points for some neat refocusing or bokeh effects. In addition, the back cover and metal frame offer a solid enough body that is nearly bulletproof (check out the video below). Other tech specs include an octa-core Kirin 925 processor, 5.5-inch full HD display, 4G LTE, NFC, an infrared port and more. Our anonymous tipster couldn't provide any specific Malaysia release dates or pricing but indicated that we could see the Honor 6 Plus as soon as the end of March 2015 or early April 2015. Considering that it is currently priced for about $320 (RM1171) we could see it be priced below RM1300, perhaps from RM1099 to RM1199 or so.

  • Rumours: Huawei stopping Ascend brand name and new Honor Cherry coming to Malaysia?

    Rumours: Huawei stopping Ascend brand name and new Honor Cherry coming to Malaysia?

    While this rumour has already been confirmed, Huawei is dropping their current Ascend branding for their smartphones. This means the smartphone previously known as the Huawei Ascend Mate 7 will now be known as the Huawei Mate 7. This was seen previously in the Phase II Syok Menang article along with what appears to be the removal of Honor branding with Huawei as well. We managed to ask a Huawei Malaysia official about this and he confirmed that while both Huawei and Honor will still be related, they will each be taking different paths and targeting different users. In related rumours, it seems that we could be soon seeing an Honor smartphone going by the codename of the Honor Cherry which could slot in between the Honor 3C Lite and the Honor 6. We assume this would be the Honor 4X but do take this rumour with a pinch of salt. While there are no Malaysia release dates details, we've been told that the Honor Cherry could arrive sometime during or after March 2015. We assume the Honor 6 Plus could soon follow.

    Rumours: Kirin 620 powered Huawei Honor 4X spotted online for RM450

    A new variant of the Huawei Honor 4X was recently spotted on a retail website. This particular version will reportedly run on the company's new 64-bit octa core Kirin 620 processor. It will support 4G LTE networks. Other than the processor, the tech specs of the device are the same as the original Honor 4X. The phone comes with a 1280 x 720 pixel resolution display, 1GB (lower-end)/ 2GB (high-end) RAM options, 13MP rear camera and a 5MP front camera. It will come with Android 4.4 Kikat out of the box and a large 3000mAh capacity battery at the back. Judging from the pictures listed online, the Kirin 620 powered Honor 4X features the same flat design profile with round corners as the original Honor 4X. Apart from the traditional black and white colors, it is said that the phone will have a gold version too. According to the source, the 1GB version of the Honor 4X will retail for 799 Yuan (RM450) while the 2GB will cost 999 Yuan (RM562). Huawei is expected to release the new Honor 4X as well as the rumored Honor 6 Plus at a press event to be held on 16 December 2014.
