The Honor X8 is a mid-range Android smartphone developed by Honor as part of their "X" series. It was announced on March 11, 2022.[3]

In China, the Honor X30i was announced on October 28, 2021, alongside the Honor X30 Max, and differs from the Honor X8 in cameras, processor, and 5G support.[4]

Design

[edit]

The screen is made of glass. The back panel is made of glossy plastic in blue color and matte in all other colors. The back panel and side part are made of matte plastic.

By design, the models are almost identical, but when in the X8 the flash is in the middle of the square camera block, then in the X30i — instead of the fourth camera.

At the bottom are located the USB-C connector, speaker, microphone and 3.5 mm audio jack. The second microphone is located on the top. On the left side, depending on the version in the X8, there is a slot for 1 or 2 SIM cards and only for 2 SIM cards in the X30i. On the right side are the volume buttons and the smartphone lock button, which has a built-in fingerprint scanner.

The Honor X8 is sold in 3 colors: Black (Midnight Black), Blue (Ocean Blue) and Silver (Titanium Silver).

In China, the Honor X30i is sold in 4 colors: Black (Magic Night Black), Blue (Charm Sea Blue), Silver (Titanium Silver) and Rose Gold.
