Other differences
In the review we found that Honor 6X is a reliable product like its previous variant. However, there is nothing special in this that you want to buy it. It would have been good if Honor would have given Wi-Fi 802.11 AC support, USB Type-C connector and real dual SIM support. The dual camera setup is a trick and does not feel the need. Performance could have been better in low light.

At the same time, Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 is a great package. But shortcomings like hybrid SIM slots, Quick charging support and very preloaded apps knock. We believe that the Redmi Note 4 will challenge its segment or a slightly expensive range smartphone. This phone is champion in terms of design, battery life and performance. Redmi Note 4 is a good option for users who want a big display and good battery life phone in the budget.
