Honor 6 smartphone user manual Communication and wireless interfaces

Honor 6A belongs to the same long-suffering category of smartphones up to 10 thousand rubles, when the budget is limited, but you want a modern device. To be able to do everything the same as the flagship, with a fingerprint scanner, with a guarantee that it is decent in general. And all this is the Honor 6A.

The Honor sub-brand (owned by Huawei) is already almost synonymous with smartphones with an excellent price / quality ratio. Yes, there are devices that are a little more interesting (Xiaomi and if you order yourself from China), but among those devices that are officially sold with us "honors" (or as some of us call "honors") there is simply no equal. Competitors are either more expensive, or without a fingerprint scanner, or made of plastic, or with some other compromise.

Design

I skipped the section about the complete set, because there is nothing special to talk about. A smartphone, a cable, a charger, a clip for removing SIM-cards is a standard set of any state employee, which, however, is our hero.

The main emphasis in the design is on the materials of the case. Honor is proud to have a metal body. Not whole, in part.

Front protective glass. I didn't really like that it is flat, with a small plastic border around the perimeter, but this is not so critical.

There are no touch buttons on the body - they are part of the system. This is both a plus and a minus. On the positive side, the smartphone is very comfortable to hold in a horizontal orientation. Negative virtual buttons eat up the useful area of ​​the screen. Yes, they hide when watching videos and playing games, but for some reason they stubbornly refuse to disappear in the Gallery. Here they are, and fig you can do something about it - this is their civic position.

Below we have symmetrical perforations for the microphone (to the left of the Micro USB port) and the speaker (to the right). I'll tell you about the speaker later.


The back resembles Xiaomi devices - such an arrangement of elements: a round camera eye at the top, under it is a fingerprint scanner of the same size. The sensor, by the way, works smartly and without errors - you don't often find such a responsive sensor in a budget phone.

And with the help of the scanner, you can control various actions. For example, I swiped down and lowered the notification curtain, but the most convenient thing is to do yourself by touching the sensor. A great thing that Honor has adopted for a long time.

In nature, there are also more compact smartphones with a 5-inch screen, but the 6A still fits well in the hand. Fans of something smaller will like it.

Display

The smartphone receives a protective film on the screen right at the factory. It is of very high quality and no Euroset seller will stick it to you like that. Hence the quite natural recommendation - not to tear it off for the time being.

And one more reason why you should not get rid of the film - there is no oleophobic coating under it. The screen does not have any anti-fingerprint coating at all, just like in smartphones from 2008. I ripped it off in view of the fact that the test of the apparatus in the film is not a test at all. Yes, and natural curiosity played. Now I'm sorry.

The rest of the screen is quite high quality. For such a diagonal (5 inches), a resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels is more than enough.




The viewing angles are good, which is predictable, since we have an IPS matrix here. It slightly fogs up colors only at extreme tilts. However, who would dream of looking at a device from such angles?


Features Honor 6A (model DLI-TL20R)

  • Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 (MSM8937) processor with 8 Cortex-A53 cores, 1.4 GHz peak frequency, 64-bit, 28 nm)

  • Android 7.0 OS
  • proprietary shell EMUI 5.1
  • sensors: accelerometer, light and distance sensor, digital compass, fingerprint scanner
  • Connectors: Micro USB, 3.5mm audio out
  • dimensions: 143.7 x 71 x 8.2 mm
  • weight 143 grams

Wireless interfaces:

  • LTE (bands: 1, 3, 7, 38, 39, 40, 41)
  • support for two Nano SIM-cards (slot combo)
  • Wi-Fi (802.11 b / g / n, 2.4 GHz), Bluetooth 4.1
  • GPS, Glonass

On the official site, I found a mistake in the specifications - the processor frequency is 1.4 GHz, not 1.5 GHz. The rest is all true.

From the nuances.

2GB of RAM is of course a sadness.

The 430th "dragon", coupled with the always perfectly optimized EMUI shell, is, of course, great, but in 2 "gig" of RAM, they still make themselves felt.

The smartphone slows down, sometimes with a delay in response to touching the touch keys. I think these points will be corrected in the next updates, but for now there is what is.

4K videos cannot be opened by standard means, but third-party players cope with this task. True, there is still no perfect smoothness of playback. You can watch, but insignificant friezes sometimes slip through.

You can play games on your smartphone. For example, the popular "Tanks" fly at low settings at a maximum frequency of 60 FPS. We switch the graphics to an average value and we get a more rendered world, but also a slightly dropped frequency to 50 frames per second. In general, World of Tanks Blitz runs even at high graphics settings. It's amazing.


Cameras

Looking ahead, I will say that the quality of the images from both modules surprised me. And now for more details.

Front camera with 5 megapixels. The lens aperture is f / 2.2 - pretty decent for a budget employee.

But the most interesting thing is the level of photographs. If there is enough lighting, selfies are great. Yes, there may be overexposures, so be careful with this. The most important thing is that the pictures are clear, with good detail.

If there is not enough light, then the self-portrait may float. Be careful with this, because during cloudy weather (we have 8 months ahead of us), you need to take 3-4 pictures at a time. For every fireman.

The main camera is 13 megapixels. The 5-element lens boasts f / 2.2 aperture. Far from being a record, because the recently announced one received a very light f / 1.6 glass. But this is a flagship for over 800 bucks, and the Honor 6A is not at all like that. However, he can do something too.

At the very beginning, I said that I was surprised. And the surprise is positive.

The smartphone takes great photos for its price range.

Pictures with very good detail, do not float around the edges, even the automatic selects the exposure correctly in most cases. Yes, once she went crazy and the photo turned out like this.

This is due to the incorrect definition of the white balance, which is sometimes naughty - in this case, I tried to focus on the trees.

The device can shoot video with Full HD resolution and at 30 frames per second. He does it normally, and more is not required from him for such a price.

Battery life

Our hero's iron is not the most voracious, and a 3,020 mAh battery is more than enough for normal autonomy. In short, the smartphone lives quietly on one charge for two full days with normal use.

You don't need to charge the device every day and this is a very good result.

Sound quality

Can Honor 6A be used as a music player? Why not? The sound quality in the headphones is good. Yes, no frills, but 90% of users will be satisfied, I refer myself to the same number. I heard the sound, of course, and more interesting, but the quality that the 6A offered, my ears were definitely not offended.

The multimedia speaker (here is one, I repeat) is average in volume, but very high quality. No extraneous squeaks, stuttering and other crime.

Outcome

Honor 6A smartphone I liked. The smartphone costs 8,990 rubles and for this price it has two cool advantages. First, the cameras shoot very well. Both! The front one takes a selfie with excellent detail, the main one can please the same. Yes, sometimes they squint and miss with exposure, focus, but it's a matter of straight arms and good lighting.

The second is battery life. The smartphone does not need to be charged every day - the owners are guaranteed two days of normal use. In modern realities, this is an excellent result.

As a bonus, there is a very sensitive fingerprint scanner and some metal in the case. You can also play modern 3D toys on the device. I don’t know how, but the smartphone copes with them.

Didn't like two things. Poor optimization, which is not typical for the proprietary EMUI shell. Hopefully it will be refined in future firmware updates.

The second is a flat screen. Since 2016, we have had an active dominance of glass curved at the edges and, admittedly, smartphones look really great with them. Unfortunately, Honor 6A did not receive this feature.

If these moments do not bother you, then the smartphone can be taken. In official retail, Honor has no competitors again.

Continuing the Q&A rubric, I decided to tell you about the Honor 6A smartphone, a well-known Chinese brand Huawei. Some online stores do not mention the manufacturer, but do not hesitate, this is still the same Huawei. Honor models are very popular in Russia, and 6A models are especially good in terms of price-quality ratio. But each tube has its own set-up challenges. And our test subject today is no exception.

My sister's working smartphone died, and she asked me to choose a fresh replacement device. The range of 5000-6000 rubles was announced. Long searches on the net have led nowhere. At this price point, all smartphones are equally bad. The main selection criteria are RAM and a high-quality screen. You can throw slippers at me, but these are really the two most important points. No matter how powerful the processor is in the phone, it will be stupid if you have 1 gigabyte of memory. And the shitty screen is just unpleasant to look at.

We upped the budget a bit and found the two best options: Huawei Y5 2017 and ours. The differences between them are minimal. The sister chose Honor to her liking.

So, the main characteristics of Honor 6A (aka DLI TL20 in the Russian version and AL10 in the Chinese), released in 2017:

  • Snapdragon 430 MSM8937 processor (8 cores).
  • RAM 2 GB (internal 16 GB) - this is our desired minimum.
  • 1280x IPS screen
  • Battery 3020 mAh.
  • Shell E1 Operating system Android 7.0.

You might argue that there are tons of other options with these characteristics. And you will be right. But there was nothing else available in the city of Vladivostok. Therefore, we took the best option from the availability and do not regret it yet. We bought it from MTS, because it takes a long time to wait with Aliexpress or Gearbest. And the phone was needed yesterday.

By the way: in the official Russian online store you can buy a fresh model Honor 7A at the same price (excluding shipping). There are two gift options to choose from.

In general, for all owners of this device, I have written answers to the most popular questions. You can also ask your own in the comments.

Honor 6a: is there NFC or not?

There is no NFC function on this phone. The device's selling price did not allow the manufacturer to embed a chip supporting near-field communication.

How to insert a SIM card into Honor 6A?

The technology is similar to all modern phones. We find the cover of the sim card slot on the left side of the case. He's there alone, you won't be able to mix it up. We insert a key-clip from the box or any pointed object into the hole of the tray. Insert the SIM card into the slot and close it. Everything!

Unlock Google Account on Huawei Honor 6A

With the release of the seventh "android", the issue of bypassing Google account can be considered the most popular on smartphones of any company. I ran into this problem myself when I decided to dig into. I made a hard reset out of habit and was very surprised when the offer to enter the Google password came out. Such an innovation appeared quite recently, and I did not know about it. Well, since you are reading this section of the article, then you want to bypass the FRP protection on the Honor 6A.

Honor 6A won't turn on or frozen

This model of the smartphone does not have a removable battery, and if the phone screen does not respond to touch, the buttons do not work, and I don’t want to wait until the battery is discharged by itself, I propose three ways to solve the problem.

  1. For forced reboot of "android" it is necessary to press the "Power" button (on / off) and hold for 10-15 seconds. Usually 15 seconds is enough for a reboot, but if it doesn't work, then try holding the power button longer, sometimes up to 1 minute.
  2. The second way to reboot the phone is to press and hold simultaneously the "Power" and "volume -" or "+" buttons for 15 seconds. In a pinch, both volume buttons. This trick is universal for any phone and Honor is no exception.
  3. The third method is suitable for people with straight arms. You need to carefully remove the back cover of the phone and disconnect the battery for one minute. After assembly, the phone should turn on with a 90% probability.

Honor 6A update

I do not recommend installing firmware updates manually from unknown sources. This lottery can turn a smartphone into a brick. If you are confident in your actions and understand why you need it, information on this issue is constantly updated in the w3bsit3-dns.com forum thread of the same name.

Automatic official updates that arrive by air are not supported by Chinese manufacturers for a long time, usually until the next model of their devices is released. Therefore, you should not wait for the latest firmware.

How to remove vibration on the Honor 6A keyboard

In the phone settings section there is an item "language and input". It contains everything related to entering text from the keyboard. Go to the subsection "virtual keyboard" and select the version that you use by default for typing. Disable vibration in settings. Please note that Google Voice Typing is not a keyboard, but a dictation technology.

Honor 6A - battery

Battery specifications:

  • Model: HB405979ECW
  • Capacity: 3020mAh
  • Type: Lithium Ion
  • Voltage: 3.7 Volts
  • Compatible with models: 6C, Y5 2017, Nova

Retail price in Russia - 1300 rubles. In China - $ 6.6-9.9. The only thing: I know from experience that Chinese batteries last less than their "original" counterparts. This is most likely due to poor quality components or an incorrectly specified capacity.

How to reset password on Honor 6A?

The first option is to unblock by logging into your Gmail account (playmarket):

  1. You must enter the wrong password or pattern within five times.
  2. After the fifth error, the "Forgotten password" option will appear in the lower right part of the screen, which you must click on.
  3. You can now log in with your Google username and password associated with your phone.
  4. After that, you need to draw a new pattern and confirm the change.

The second option for those who have forgotten the password is to hard reset the phone settings:

  1. Press and hold the "Power" button to turn off the device.
  2. Press and hold the Volume + and Power buttons until the screen displays the logo.
  3. Now release the power key and hold down the volume key.
  4. Use the volume buttons to select the option "wipe data / reset factory settings" and confirm it with the "Power" button.
  5. Then select the "reboot system now" option using the same button.
  6. After this procedure, Honor 6A will be reset to factory settings along with password reset.

If you are sure that you want to do a Hard Reset, first make sure you know which Google account the operating system is linked to, and you remember exactly the password for this account (email). Otherwise, you will have to deal with unlocking. If all the data is available, watch the video. Knowledge of English is not required.

Honor 6a: how to connect to a computer

Using the supplied USB cable, which charges the phone, we connect it to the port of a PC or laptop. A pop-up window will appear on the phone screen in which you will need to confirm the connection. An icon will also appear on the notification bar to indicate that the devices have been successfully connected.

In the phone panel, you need to lower the notification panel and select HiSuite in the current connection - after that Windows will install the drivers. Click on the virtual CD drive that appears and run the installation file for the HiSuite program, which will download and install everything you need to synchronize devices. The computer must be connected to the internet.

If HiSuite is not in the list, download and install it on the program on your PC. After rebooting both devices, it will be possible to connect in two ways, which are in the smartphone's notification panel (HiSuite or MTP), through the program or through the explorer.

How to turn on the pedometer on Honor 6A?

In order to activate or remove the pedometer on the lock screen of your smartphone, you need to go to "menu-settings-device-lock screen-additional information". There is a “pedometer” item that can be turned on or unchecked.

  2. In edit mode open build.prop
  3. Find the line ro.config.hw_voicerecord = false and change false to true (if there is no such line, create it manually).
  4. Save the file.
  5. Go to the path / cust / current location / prop and open local.prop in edit mode
  6. Change the line ro.config.hw_voicerecord = false from false to true (if there is no such line, create it manually)
  7. Save the file and restart your phone.

When you call, you need to press "more" -> "record"

Honor 6A - battery runs out quickly

Possible reasons for fast discharge:

  • The screen is at maximum brightness all the time.
  • Many applications are open.
  • The battery is swollen (the phone is not level on the table).
  • The battery resource is exhausted (provided that the phone has been in operation for at least a year) or its marriage, if, for example, a month has passed since the time of purchase.
  • Bad (or incorrect) firmware that distributes power incorrectly between blocks.

Smartphones made in China are gaining more and more popularity among users every year. Among the leading concerns that produce cellular devices, one cannot but mention Huawei. Cell phones manufactured by this company differ in build quality and pleasant design, but of the whole variety of models produced by Huawei, Huawei Honor 6A should be noted, which is reviewed in this article.

As for the delivery set, in addition to the mobile phone itself, it includes: a charger, a cable required to synchronize the device with a computer, as well as a paper clip that allows you to open the tray for placing a SIM card and memory expansion card. In addition to all this, the package for the phone includes a user manual in Russian. The disadvantage of the kit can be called its scarcity, but this kit is typical for all smartphones from the budget segment. Only in rare cases, in addition to the instruction manual, charging, cable, warranty card, paper clips, can headphones or a stock silicone case be put into the kit.

Dimensions and ergonomics

As for the dimensions of the Honor 6A, they allow you to comfortably use the phone. The device is 143.7 millimeters long, 70.95 millimeters wide and 8.2 millimeters thick. Add to this a display having a diagonal of 5 inches, and the user gets a convenient and ergonomic mobile device to use. Huawei Honor 6A weighs only 143 grams, which allows you to comfortably use the phone for a long time.

The device has a metal non-removable, pleasant to the touch back cover, rounded edges and corners make the device convenient to use. The high build quality is also pleasing. The mobile phone does not play, does not creak, the lid does not bend. The Honor 6A features a solid, monolithic construction. The movement of the mechanical keys is quite easy, the buttons are firmly seated, do not dangle, and do not strive to "jump out" of their seats.

Design

As noted earlier, the mobile phone received a metal body. Of course, there are plastic elements in the design, but for a device from the budget segment, the presence of metal in the design is rare. The frame is made of plastic, as well as inserts for antennas, framing the device along the end.

As for the front of the cell phone, it is covered with a flat protective glass. By the way, it is made using gorilla glass technology, and is not afraid of the phone falling onto the screen from a low height, and also does not collect minor everyday scratches. In addition, it is additionally covered with a factory protective film. Along the perimeter there is a rather thin plastic side that looks stylish and attractive. The device lacks touch buttons under the screen, they are located in the display frame. This is kind of a plus and a minus. The advantages include the fact that the function keys disappear when watching videos, and the disadvantages are their presence when viewing images in the gallery. Above the display, you can find the earpiece, the LED indicator of missed events, sensors, and the peephole of the front camera. There is a silvery Honor inscription under the screen.

At the back of the device, in the upper part, there is the main camera, to the left of it, you can see the LED, which serves as a flash and flashlight. Just below the camera, there is a fingerprint scanner, which is a peculiar feature of the budget Honor 6A smartphone. Identification information about the device and the Honor inscription are placed on the metal cover.

On the right side there is a volume rocker, as well as an on and off button. On the left you can find a combined tray for Sim and memory expansion cards.

Above is a 3.5 mm Mini-Jack. It is designed to connect headphones and other audio devices to your phone. Below you can find a connector for charging and synchronization with a PC, as well as the main microphone and multimedia speaker.

Display

As for the screen, the model received a display with HD resolution of 1280 by 720 pixels, and a pixel density of 294 ppi. The five-inch diagonal makes the smartphone easy to operate with one hand. The cell phone is equipped with an IPS matrix. It has good viewing angles for a budget employee.

Now to the disadvantages. The screen of Huawei Honor 6A does not have an oleophobic coating, because of this, dirt and fingerprints instantly accumulate on the surface, in addition, there is an uneven sliding of the finger across the display. This makes the device somewhat uncomfortable, and the control accuracy in games decreases.

Besides, between the protective glass and the screen, there is a layer of air, because of this, the image seems to be somewhat recessed into the body of the device. Because of what, its quality suffers, and the anti-glare properties of the screen are noticeably deteriorated. The maximum display brightness is not high enough for comfortable use of a mobile phone in sunny weather.

However, in the settings, the user can set the color parameters, as well as activate the reading mode. In it, the image is given a yellow tint, and this has a positive effect on reducing eye fatigue when using the device.

Operating system

As for the software component of the device, the phone is equipped with the Android 7.0 operating system (in comparison with the more recent OS installed here), with a proprietary graphical shell EMUI 5.1.

Standard functions on the model are workable: support for multi-window mode, instant switching between the two last used programs, the ability to reply to a message from the notification window. The branded shell, in contrast to previous versions, has received a brighter, more stylish and colorful design, it has become more logical and easier to use. Nevertheless, the difference between the class of the device and the OS version is noticeable - Android 7.0 is "heavy" for the device. This can be seen due to the not smooth operation when switching between desktops, and "brooding" when launching applications and games.

The user gets out of the box such applications as a "phone manager", a file manager, a music player, a convenient gallery, standard programs from Google, and even a utility for tracking health. The device is equipped with support for Android Pei, which is good news for sophisticated users of mobile gadgets.

Cameras

The Huawei Honor 6A smartphone is equipped with two cameras: a front one with a resolution of 5 megapixels, and a main one with a resolution of 13 megapixels. Both the first and the second modules have a fairly good light sensitivity, which, in good lighting conditions, allows you to take high-quality photos and shoot good videos. The front camera, by the way, lacks autofocus, but such a picture is enough to get a high-quality image when taking a selfie or talking on Skype. The rear camera shoots well in stable lighting, and is reasonably tolerable in the dark.

As for video recording, they are smooth, and the maximum resolution of the video output is Full HD 30 frames per second. Users have no complaints about the sharpness, saturation of the image, the appearance of artifacts either when taking photos or recording video. The only thing is that there is no automatic image stabilization option, which prevents you from making high-quality videos handheld on the go. However, the competitors of this smartphone also cannot boast of this option.

It is necessary to say a few words about the standard software that allows you to control cameras. It has the most necessary options, easy to operate and learn. Rather, simplicity can be called an advantage, since it allows people, even those far from using smartphones, to immediately get involved in the process.

Sound

The multimedia speaker has fairly standard features: the presence of mid and high frequencies is felt, and there is an acute lack of bass. However, the sound produced by the speaker is quite clear and loud. This will prevent you from missing an important call, or oversleeping an alarm clock.

The situation improves if you connect headphones to your smartphone. Depending on the quality of the audio device, the sound is also noticeably improved. Of course, premium models can boast of deeper and clearer sound, but the Honor 6A smartphone did not hit the dirt on the face. The device can act as an audio player without any problems.

Autonomy

The model is equipped with a 3020 mAh battery. This volume is enough for intensive use of the phone during the day. If you use your smartphone normally, the charge will last for 2 days.

In addition to a good battery capacity, the phone has power-saving modes, the settings restrict the operation of some programs with the Internet, automatically adjust the brightness and volume of system sounds and calls. There is also a mode that completely prohibits the operation of all functions, except for the ability to make a call or send an SMS message. In this mode, the Huawei Honor 6A smartphone can work for almost a week on a single battery charge.

Indicators of autonomous work are one of the chips of the new state employee of 2017 release. Those who value their time, performance and device survivability under intensive settings should turn their attention to this phone. If you play games on it at medium brightness, then about 12% of the charge will be consumed per hour, and when watching videos - 7-8%.

Performance

The main technical characteristics of a mobile phone are as follows: 2 (3 GB) RAM, and 16 (32 GB) - maximum memory. In addition, the device supports micro-sd memory cards up to 128GB. The device is equipped with an eight-core Snapdragon 430 processor manufactured by Qualcomm. The operating frequency of the chip is 1500 MHz. The phone uses Adreno 505 as a graphics accelerator. The only drawbacks are that the user has to choose, either install another SIM card, or use a micro-sd.

According to the results of comparative synthetic tests, the device has taken a pretty good position in the hierarchy of budget smartphones. So, in the Geekbench 4 benchmark (testing the processor's capabilities), the device received 2722 points, which is higher than that of the Xiaomi Redmi 4, in Antutu 6 during mixed testing, 6A was compared with the Samsung Galaxy A3, and scored 43,410 points. Well, the graphics test Ice Storm Unlimited from 3DMark showed 9,542 points, which allowed the Honor 6A to overtake the Lenovo Vibe Shot.

It is also worth that Huawei Honor 6A DLI TL 20 R easily pulls heavy games at medium and low settings, and at the same time, it practically does not heat up: the maximum heating temperature is 41.8 degrees.
