> 24 hourPhone is fantastic! Some people in the comments have been saying they received the incorrect model. Luckily I got the correct one. I get a perfect 4g signal, but LTE doesnt seem to work. Im not sure if its the phone or my carrier, but its really no big deal, as I only really use my data for streaming music when Im not home. Its super fast, screen is nice, love the notch, and the blue glass back cover is gorgeous.

> 24 hourThe phone screen was incredible. Could not get the camera to work effectively. I will continue fiddling with the settings or may try downloading a different app. I found the automatic software on the 7x to be more user friendly. Despised the bloatware. I liked the cloud option being offered now for storage. The phone ran quickly enough and for the price could not ask for better.

> 24 hourThe finger reader will read immediately or it may take a few times. I dont use the face recognition. Anyway, the phone is amazing its the best phone Ive ever had. The camera spec are great and the battery life can last me up to 2 day! Great buy for the price of the phone! Update a year and 3 months later the finger print scanner has now stopped working. However the phone is durable.

> 24 hourThis phone is awesome. The battery life is excellent and the camera takes great pictures. I love that you can take a pic of an item and when you tap and hold with two fingers for a few seconds, itll find and show you more items like it on sale. The only con I have about this phone is that the speakers are not as loud as Id want them to be, but even with that con, I would definitely recommend this phone to anyone for such a low price.

> 24 hourWhen I first read the Huawei/Honor was bring out the 8X I was super stoked. I had the 7X and loved it, but I wanted something that was quicker and had more native storage. I followed the release of the 8X and was crestfallen when it was not released for the US, but recently I was informed that the JSN-L23 version worked for the US. I checked it out and verified the bands and became a very happy camper. I ordered this phone for my early birthday present. The first device I received was awesome... but it was the wrong color. Amazon sent me out a replacement that was correct so that I have this gorgeous blue phone in my hand. I hed my wife give the first phone a try and she really liked it so I had to order her one as well. PROS * Price - You get what you pay for and then some. This phone could easily sell for double and still be a decent buy. * Battery life - no complaints here. I can go all day and still have plenty of juice left. Im not a gamer but I travel every day for work and use my phone for my paperwork, consulting maps, and as my ereader. * Screen - my first thought on a 6.5 1080p screen was, will it look good enough? Yes, it does. It looks great. It is nice and bright. The notch is not too big and leaves plenty of room for notifications and status icons. The pre-installed screen protector was a very nice addition, as well. * Hardware - This a fast phone. The build is Gorilla glass on the front and back with metal edges, and the included clear case adds extra protection. It has a nice heft in the hand. The fingerprint sensor is dead on in the proper location and is very snappy. Game performance is good and the sound can get more than loud enough. I havent encountered any lag or stuttering in my day to day use thus far. * Cell Reception - I am on Cricket which uses AT&Ts network. I havent had any issues with cell reception. While the L23 version has bands 2, 4, and 5 it does lack bands 12 and 17. As I said above I travel daily for my job and a lot of that is by interstate and I can say that the only areas I have bad reception are the areas that have always had bad reception. I have 4G almost all the time. * Software - my phone is still on Android 8.1.0. From what I have found online Honor pulled the impending update to 9.0 due to some issues that came to light but they still plan on putting it out once these are resolved. I cant speak on EMUI as I use Nova Launcher on all my phones. CONS * Size - No matter what people say size does matter. This is a large phone. I am a big guy with big hands and it can still be a stretch to reach across the screen with my thumb. Hopefully anyone buying a 6.5 phone understands that that is part of the deal. * Camera - while I have not had any issues with the camera I have hear that some people do. Im not a photographer so as long as the image is clear I am fine with it. My pictures thus far have all looked good, but just know that this is a point of contention with some. * Micro USB - this, to me, was really disappointing. I knew about it before I bought the phone but it still bothered me. I have plenty of micro USB cables and all from previous phones (Im looking at you, Honor 7X) but it would have been much nicer to have had USB C. The bottom line is that I am very happy with this device. It is a killer bargain for the price, plus it really turns heads with its looks. Buy it.

> 24 hourThis phone is great. It is literally like an iPhone xs max but better, for less than a fraction of the cost. The size is great! The display is beautiful! The notch is hardly noticable! Its super fast and smooth. I have cricket and my phone has no problem using a cricket sim. The display is bright and beautiful. The face unlock is really good! Only sometimes when youre in a darker area the ephone cant really read youre face which is understandable. The phone charges so quick! And the battery last a while (and I love to watch shows and movies all day). Ive only had it for a day so I havent tried out the camera quality yet(Ill update In a few days when I do) over a this phone is amazing( the fact that I got is for less than. $200 is a steal!!!) You will be very satisfied if you get this phone trust me.

> 24 hourGot the phone as promised. Had a problem. It was replaced promptly even before I returned the old one. I am very impressed with the customer support and the phone quality. Cannot believe anyone is opting for a more expensive phone...

> 24 hourCrisp night shots on the camera, decent battery for my usage (1.5 days give or take). Gorgeous construction and screen. Snappy os and its Android so fiddle away with settings. A month in and Im enjoying this phone a lot. UPDATE: Charger port quit working not even a year into owning the phone. I dont beat on my phone but this is a disappointment. Loved this phone but such a let down.
