Download the operating instructions for your Honor smartphone. Communications and wireless interfaces

Smartphones made in China are gaining more and more popularity among users every year. Among the leading concerns that produce cellular devices, one cannot fail to mention Huawei. Cell phones produced by this company are distinguished by their build quality and pleasant design, but of the variety of models produced by Huawei, Huawei Honor 6A should be noted, the review of which is presented in this article.

As for the delivery set, in addition to the mobile phone itself, it includes: a charger, a cable necessary to synchronize the device with a computer, as well as a paperclip that allows you to open the tray to place a SIM card and memory expansion card. In addition to all this, the phone comes with a user manual in Russian. The disadvantage of the kit is its scarcity, but this set is typical for all smartphones in the budget segment. Only in rare cases, in addition to the operating instructions, charging, cable, warranty card, and paper clip, the kit may include headphones or a stock silicone case.

Dimensions and ergonomics

As for the dimensions of Honor 6A, they allow you to use the phone comfortably. The length of the device is 143.7 millimeters, width – 70.95 millimeters, and thickness – 8.2 millimeters. Add to this a display with a diagonal of 5 inches, and the user gets a convenient and ergonomic mobile device to use. Huawei Honor 6A weighs only 143 grams, which allows you to comfortably use the phone for a long time.

The device has a non-removable metal back cover that is pleasant to the touch, rounded edges and corners make the device convenient to use. The high build quality is also pleasing. The mobile phone does not play, does not creak, and the lid does not bend. Honor 6A is a durable monolithic design. The movement of mechanical keys is quite easy, the buttons are firmly planted, do not dangle, and do not tend to “jump out” of their places.

Design

As noted earlier, the mobile phone has a metal body. Of course, the design also contains plastic elements, but for a device in the budget segment, the presence of metal in the design is rare. The frame is made of plastic, as well as inserts for antennas that frame the devices at the end.

As for the front of the cell phone, it is covered with flat protective glass. By the way, it is made using gorilla glass technology, and is not afraid of the phone falling onto the screen from a small height, and also does not pick up small everyday scratches. In addition, it is additionally covered with a factory protective film. There is a fairly thin plastic edge around the perimeter, which looks stylish and attractive. The device does not have touch buttons under the screen; they are located in the display frame. This is kind of both a plus and a minus. The advantages include that the function keys disappear when watching videos, and the disadvantages are that they are present when viewing images in the gallery. Above the display you can find the earpiece, LED indicator for missed events, sensors, and the front camera peephole. Below the screen is a silver Honor inscription.

At the back of the device, at the top, is the main camera; to the left of it, you can see an LED that functions as a flash and flashlight. Just below the camera, there is a fingerprint scanner, which is a unique feature of the budget Honor 6A smartphone. The metal cover contains identification information about the device and the inscription Honor.

On the right side there is a volume rocker, as well as a power button. On the left you can find a combined tray for Sim and memory expansion cards.

At the top there is a Mini-Jack connector with a diameter of 3.5 millimeters. It is designed to connect headphones and other audio devices to the phone. At the bottom you can find a connector for charging and synchronizing with a PC, as well as the main microphone and multimedia speaker.

Display

As for the screen, the model received a display with an HD resolution of 1280 by 720 pixels and a pixel density of 294 ppi. The five-inch diagonal makes the smartphone convenient to operate with one hand. The cell phone is equipped with an IPS matrix. It has good viewing angles for a budget employee.

Now to the disadvantages. The screen of Huawei Honor 6A does not have an oleophobic coating, because of this, dirt and fingerprints instantly accumulate on the surface, in addition, the finger glides unevenly across the display. This makes using the device somewhat uncomfortable and also reduces control accuracy in games.

In addition, between the protective glass and the screen there is a layer of air, because of this, the image seems somewhat recessed into the body of the device. Because of this, its quality suffers and the anti-glare properties of the screen noticeably deteriorate. The maximum brightness of the display is not high enough for comfortable use of the mobile phone in sunny weather.

However, in the settings the user can set the color parameters and also activate the reading mode. In it, the image is given a yellow tint, and this has a positive effect on reducing eye fatigue when using the device.

operating system

As for the software component of the device, the phone has the Android 7.0 operating system (in comparison with a more recent OS installed here), with the proprietary EMUI 5.1 graphical shell.

Standard functions on the model are functional: support for multi-window mode, instant switching between the two most recently used programs, the ability to reply to a message from the notification window. The branded shell, unlike previous versions, received a brighter, stylish and colorful design, became more logical and easier to use. Nevertheless, the difference between the device class and the OS version is noticeable - Android 7.0 is “heavy” for the device. This can be noticed due to not smooth operation when switching between desktops, and “thoughtfulness” while launching applications and games.

The user receives out of the box such applications as a “phone manager”, a file manager, a music player, a convenient gallery, standard programs from Google, and even a utility for monitoring health. The device is equipped with support for Android Pay, which cannot but please sophisticated users of mobile gadgets.

Cameras

The Huawei Honor 6A smartphone is equipped with two cameras: a front one with a resolution of 5 megapixels, and a main one with a resolution of 13 megapixels. Both the first and second modules have fairly good light sensitivity, which, in good lighting, allows you to take high-quality photographs and shoot good videos. The front camera, by the way, does not have autofocus, but to get a high-quality image when taking a selfie or talking on Skype, such a picture is enough. The rear camera takes good pictures in stable lighting, and is quite tolerable in the dark.

As for recording videos, they turn out smooth, and the maximum resolution of the output videos is Full HD 30 frames per second. Users have no complaints about the sharpness, saturation of the image, or the appearance of artifacts either when taking photographs or when recording videos. The only thing is that there is no automatic image stabilization option, which prevents you from making high-quality handheld videos on the go. However, the competitors of this smartphone also cannot boast of this option.

It is necessary to say a few words about the standard software that allows you to control the cameras. It has the most necessary options, is easy to manage and learn. Simplicity can rather be called an advantage, since it allows people, even those who are far from using smartphones, to immediately get involved in the process.

Sound

The multimedia speaker has fairly standard capabilities: the presence of mid and high frequencies is felt, and there is an acute lack of bass. However, the sound produced by the speaker is quite clear and loud. This will prevent you from missing an important call or sleeping through your alarm.

The situation improves if you connect headphones to your smartphone. Depending on the quality of the audio device, the sound will noticeably improve. Of course, premium models can boast of deeper and clearer sound, but the Honor 6A smartphone did not lose face. The device can act as an audio player without any problems.

Autonomy

The model is equipped with a battery with a capacity of 3020 mAh. This volume is enough for intensive use of the phone throughout the day. If you use the smartphone in normal mode, the charge will last for 2 days.

In addition to good battery capacity, the phone has energy saving modes, settings limit the work of some programs with the Internet, and automatically adjust the brightness and volume of system sounds and the ringer. There is also a mode that completely prohibits the operation of all functions, except for the ability to make a call or send an SMS message. In this mode, the Huawei Honor 6A smartphone can work for almost a week on a single battery charge.

Battery life indicators are one of the features of the new 2017 budget phone. Those who value their time, performance and device survivability under intensive settings should pay attention to this phone. If you play games on it at medium brightness, then about 12% of the charge will be consumed per hour, and when watching videos - 7-8%.

Performance

The main technical characteristics of the mobile phone are as follows: 2 (3 GB) of RAM, and 16 (32 GB) of maximum memory. In addition, the device supports micro-SD memory cards up to 128 GB. The device is equipped with an eight-core Snapdragon 430 processor manufactured by Qualcomm. The operating frequency of the chip is 1500 MHz. The phone uses Adreno 505 as a graphics accelerator. The only disadvantage is that the user has to choose either to install another SIM card or use micro-SD.

According to the results of comparative synthetic tests, the device took a pretty good position in the hierarchy of budget smartphones. Thus, in the Geekbench 4 Benchmark (testing processor capabilities), the device received 2722 points, which is higher than that of Xiaomi Redmi 4, in Antutu 6 during mixed testing, 6A was compared with Samsung Galaxy A3, and scored 43,410 points. Well, the Ice Storm Unlimited graphics test from 3DMark showed 9,542 points, which allowed the Honor 6A to overtake the Lenovo Vibe Shot.

It is also worth that the Huawei Honor 6A TL 20 R easily handles heavy games at medium and low settings, and at the same time practically does not heat up: the maximum heating temperature is 41.8 degrees.

Tests of Honor 6A have shown that the smartphone, despite its presence in the budget phone category, is quite productive, which promises the device high popularity among users.

Communications and wireless interfaces

As for communication indicators, the phone supports LTE and VoLTE. In addition, the device is equipped with GPS + GLONASS, as well as Bluetooth version 4.1.

As for the quality of the speaker and microphone, they are excellent. Despite the fact that the speaker is not very loud, it is well designed, has no wheezing or creaking, and the interlocutor can be heard quite well, which is confirmed by video reviews.

Results

Honor 6A DLI TL20, the description of which was presented in this article, is a worthy example of the fact that a budget smartphone can be of high quality and productivity. Users will also be pleased with the advanced operating system and support for Android Pay. However, the gadget also has disadvantages, for example, a somewhat limited amount of RAM and lack of NFC support. The average cost of the device is 9,000 rubles, and, by the way, it pays for every ruble spent on it. Definitely, Huawei Honor 6A deserves your attention.
