The HONOR X6c is designed for users who want a solid midrange phone with strong battery life, a smooth display, and useful extras — all without breaking the bank. It delivers essential features in a well-balanced package, combining durability, performance, and comfort in everyday use.
Display & Design
The X6c features a 6.61-inch TFT LCD screen with a 120 Hz refresh rate. Scrolling, animations, and UI transitions feel much smoother compared to standard 60 Hz displays. The peak brightness reaches about 1010 nits, making reading outdoors or under strong lighting easier.
Built with a plastic frame and back, the phone is lightweight yet sturdy. It has IP64 certification for dust and water resistance (splash and droplet protection), and is drop-resistant from up to ~1.5 meters thanks to additional structural reinforcements. The side-mounted fingerprint scanner adds convenience and speed for unlocking.
Performance & Memory
Under the hood, the X6c runs on the MediaTek Helio G81 Ultra chipset (12 nm process). This chip handles everyday tasks such as social media, browsing, light gaming, and video playback with minimal lag. RAM options are 6 or 8 GB, and there is also a virtual memory extension (“RAM Turbo”) that can increase usable memory under load. Storage is offered in 128 GB or 256 GB variants, with support for expandable storage via microSD (hybrid slot in some markets).
Camera System
For photos and video, the X6c includes a 50 MP main rear camera (wide lens) that captures detailed images, especially in normal lighting. It is paired with a secondary depth or auxiliary sensor for portrait effects. The front selfie camera has 5 MP, which is suitable for video calls and everyday selfies, though it’s more modest compared to rear sensors. Video capture capacity is up to 1080p @ 30 fps.
Battery & Charging
The device boasts a 5,300 mAh battery (typical), offering long usage throughout a full day or more under mixed usage conditions. When battery is low, the 35 W fast charging is included to provide relatively quick top-ups so you can return to use sooner instead of waiting for lengthy charging sessions.
Software & Extras
X6c runs Android 15 with HONOR’s MagicOS 9 skin. It comes with a dedicated AI button that can launch visual tools like the AI Eraser, object search, image translation, and more. Display options include eye comfort features: blue light filter, DC dimming, Always-On display support in some modes. Other useful features include a 3.5 mm headphone jack, USB-C port, side fingerprint sensor, dual SIM support (or single SIM + microSD in hybrid mode), and water/dust resistance.
