Design and Quality
The build quality of Huawei Honor 3X Pro is very good and nicely embedded all over its structure. The back of the phone has fine leather finish and there is a metallic lining across its all sides. The volume rocker and power button is located at the right side of the phone along with microSD card slot and microUSB port while there is button on left side.

The back cover is removable but the battery cannot be removed. Under the back cover there is battery and two micro SIM card slots.
OS and Tech
The OS supported by this handset is Android v4.2.2 Jelly Beans which is an older OS and there has been no notification from the company by now if any upgrade to OS will be released or not. There are smartphone in market having similar specifications but running latest OS like KitKat. Though this old OS works quite well in Honor 3X Pro with the support of 2GB RAM and powerful 1.7GHz processor but an upgrade to it is required if the handset has to survive in the fast pacing market.
Camera and Multimedia
Huawei has improved its camera department a lot. The 13MP back camera is quite handsome generating quality pictures and videos. The LED flash supports the camera performance very nicely under low light shooting. Day time shooting is more than a fun with this camera and the night time images are even of better quality with fewer grains. Video recorded by the back camera is of good quality with live and vibrant colors and looks nice when run on full HD 5.5-inch screen. The front camera is also improved and works elegantly for small selfies and video conferences.
Battery and Memory
The phone is in market with a heavy battery of 3000mAh. This much battery is actually quite heavy to support even the heavy tasks whole day. It can easily stand for whole day under heavy mobile use. But the issue with heavy batteries is that they take longer times to get fully recharged and the same happens with this battery. It would take about 2-3hrs for this battery to get completely recharged. The RAM is improved as well and now it is 2GB which makes the device quite fast processing of apps and requests. The internal storage has been upgraded from 16GB to 32GB now which can further be expanded up to 64GB with the use of microSD card. So user will be having no issue of installing as many apps as one wants to since there is no memory tension in this set.
