Reviews for the Honor X5b Plus

83% Honor X5b+ Review: Good for the Price
Source: Gadgetbyte Nepal English
The Honor X5b Plus is a pretty liable option under the sub 15K segment in Nepal. Its got a decent 50MP camera, a clean UI with no ads and a decent display. Its 5200mAh battery is also great but the 10W charging is too slow for 2025 standards. Okay concluding, the Honor X5b Plus suffices your need if you are looking for an affordable phone. It’s got a good battery life and good looking design. I mean, there is not much to complain over here.

It is a small display format for smartphones. You shouldn't be severely defective in vision, and you won't see much detail on the screen and only have a small resolution available. For that, the device should be small and handy, easy to transport.

Honor:

In 2014 Huawei created the sub brand Honor and offers certain smartphone series under this name. Occasionally the products are also called Huawei Honor.

The market share of Honor products is manageable, but there are several reviews on Honor smartphones with average ratings (as of 2016).


83%: This rating is slightly above average, there are somewhat more devices with worse ratings. However, clear purchase recommendations look different.
