Honor 8X and 8X Max launched in China with 6.5-inches and 7.12-inches screen size

Huawei’s sub-brand Honor has launched two phones in China — **8X and 8X Max** . The Honor 8X Max has come with the waterdrop notch similar to **Oppo F9 Pro** or the Vivo V11 Pro that launched today. The 8X arrived with an iPhone X-like notch that houses the selfie camera. But the notch doesn’t stop the phone from having a huge screen. The 8X came with a screen size of 6.5-inches and the 8X Max came, like its name suggests, with an even bigger screen of 7.12-inches. We can see that both the phones come with a chin at the bottom frame, which seems to be small in size. The phones look similar to last year’s Honor 7X .
