Editor Rating
3.2/5

Honor X7a is a nice upgrade over the outgoing model of the X series entry-level smartphones on offer from the popular Chinese brand. It features a similar design theme and finishes as a lot of the other models in this series, with a plain back design that is highlighted by various colour gradients and features a slimmed-down camera module that is also painted the same colour to help it blend it more easily. While the camera module is shaped like a curved square, the sensors themselves are fit inside two large circles that are stacked on top of each other and feature a nice black finish to contrast with the rest of the body.

Bottom Line

Honor X7a is a nice and affordable entry-level smartphone that features a decent display and processor, usable cameras, and a large battery to keep it all going. The charging speeds are pretty basic though, and you get no wireless charging.
