The Honor X8b 256GB is Honor's 2024 smartphone featuring a 6.7 inches, 108.0 cm2 (~89.9% screen-to-body ratio) display, the Qualcomm SM6225 Snapdragon 680 4G (6 nm) chipset. It comes with a 4500 mAh battery. At AED 800 in the UAE and ₹18,999 in India, it sits firmly in the budget tier.
The Honor X8b 256GB excels with its 108MP main sensor delivering detailed daylight shots, a 90Hz AMOLED display hitting 2000 nits peak brightness for outdoor clarity, and 35W wired charging that refills its 4500mAh battery in under 70 minutes. It targets budget-conscious buyers who prioritize bright, crisp screens and high-resolution photography without paying flagship prices. Its weakness? The Snapdragon 680 4G chipset struggles with sustained gaming or multitasking, causing noticeable throttling after 15 minutes of heavy use. NFC is absent, limiting contactless payments in UAE’s cashless ecosystem. In UAE at AED 800, it’s competitive because the AMOLED panel and 35W charging outperform rivals like the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ at similar prices. In India at ₹18999, it’s overpriced—competing models like the Realme Narzo 70 Pro 5G offer 5G, better thermals, and similar cameras for ₹17999. Skip if you need 5G or long-term performance.
