this phone uses a 3100 mAh Li-Po (Lithium Polymer) battery. LiPo batteries known to hold charges longer.

Difference of Li Ion and Li Po batteries here:
http://www.buzzle.com/articles/lithium-ion...power-wars.html

Samsung and Xiaomi all their phones uses Li-Ion (lithium ion) battery (cheaper, yet faster to discharge). You can check out which phones uses what type of battery from GSM Arena: http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPho...8&idPhone2=6461

This phone, and iPhone 5S above and also some other Android phones uses Li-Po. I personally prefer Li-Po battery as I feel it lasts longer. Evidently when I started using this Honor 6 phone. I'm really impressed with the battery life. Maybe also because its ROM is pretty optimized and drains battery less.

It's a good phone overall. Get it if you can via VMALL (refer to Honor Malaysia FB page for sales dates) or get it via Digi Stores/Digi Express Stores for a slightly higher price. I got mine at Digi.. never regretting it coz it's an awesome phone yet affordable

wanna save more battery.. put on Airplane Mode when sleep... confirm save a lot.. that's what I always do

if i expect emergency calls from loved ones then will not switch that on la.. most of the time no .. so might as well switch off everything.. peace of mind also.

to preserve battery life don't make habit of charging once past 100%. always leaving phone on overcharge will definitely make battery life shorter.

get the phone la.. won't regret de.. ask us if you have any other doubts.

just get Honor 6 la. Mi4 by comparison isn't as good as this phone. this phone for MicroSD card, cheaper also.. imagine u add a 16gb kingston high speed microSD to this phone.. u already get 16+16GB.. enough to store everything inside. (videos and pictures takes the most space la.. songs also.. all can be stored in microSD.)

unless you're very particular on the body which is all metal for Mi4.. then u go buy Mi4 la.

in terms of processor this phone is better la.. it's an Octacore (Quad core + quad core = 8 core). Honor 6 is all plastic but it's a very solid plasticky body. u go Digi try hold it if don't believe. All plastic good is very light.. won't feel heavy in the pocket.

call Digi >extension broadband.

I had similar issues like you also when first got the phone.. never see LTE signal before.

they will transfer to Level 2 team and try fix for you. For me after informing the incident the same day got liao.. very fast fix. Urm make sure your SIM card is supported LTE also la.. (new SIM card is black color one)

It is a good phone.. affordable, with latest specs, with SD card slot, and 3100 mAh battery.

What else can you ask for? Retail price of RM999? You can find no other phone in the market like it right now.

Only thing is plastic body.. if you cannot tahan plastic body then find another phone that is metal body (Mi4 recommended if you want similar price phone <-- but no SD card slot). However it is very solid.. much more solid than a Samsung phone due to its thickness.. Thick yet still light.

for MicroSD card I use this... so my phone is 16GB + this high speed 16GB.. so far I recommend it been using it close to 1 year+ liao no issues.. solid card. This phone supports up to 64GB card so you can get bigger ones if you'd need more space: http://www.sandisk.com/products/memory-car.../?capacity=32GB

looks good.. anyone tried it?

only 3 comments at the bottom.. afraid they could be fake

This phone is worth it.. Dual SIM you must buy from other sources such as ebay, trusted sellers etc. Also pls check if LTE is supported for your carrier. Dual SIM is from China so its LTE bandwidth could be different from here/not compatible.

OR, just wait the dual sim version launch here... slim chance tho as demand for dual sim in Malaysia is not that high.

good.. go for it! ask the guy on FB Honor page.. i'm sure you'll get a definite answer

https://www.facebook.com/HuaweiHonorMY

guys.. u got experience issues with pluggin in your phone via USB? It often asks to scan my SD card for problems.. each time after scan found no problems. Pretty annoying this pop up.. should i just ignore it? don't have such an issue with my Samsung S3 Mini last time... maybe it's how the phone handles the SD card differently each time it's plugged via USB?

another thing.. looking high and low for flip covers (the one with a hole in front to pick up calls easier).. yet can't seem to find any in physical shops.. u guys manage to find any good online sellers for Honor 6 flip covers?

got many selling online but dunno which is good:
http://www.lelong.com.my/kx/honor+6+flip+cover.htm

how does it get confused? screenshots please?

Huh ok ma.. Much more stronger than my Samsung S3 Mini last time. At least in my car (tinted) got signal. Last time old phone gps signal easy lost.

i tested it here and there with TV, aircond.. doesnt crash. guess only for that aircond brand you're using? you could try log a ticket to Huawei and see if they can help.

have you tried using it to remote control other devices? see if same thing happens?

1) better ask for warranty repair/replacement
2) yea sometimes this happens to me too in certain games.. not much of a big deal. Hope they fix it in future patches.

yes LTE requires new SIM card.

if after getting new sim card also cannot then followup with Celcom helpdesk till 4G signal appears on your Honor 6.

tricky.. not sure whats the problem then..

Digi for China set sure can't use LTE. only Maxis and Celcom can... next try Maxis sim card LTE and see?

yours is H06-12. Malaysia set is H06-04.

EMUI 3.0 not yet launched for Honor 6. They say one day soon but duno when.

typo error.. sry edited.

hard to say coz H06-02 also currently dont have any updates.

Maybe Honor 6 phones direct from China has a slightly different interface?


yea guess that will be enough.. the phone is damn solid plastic.

problem is still very hard to find accessories anywhere I go... always ask "got Honor 6 casing/screen protector?" always get back reply "No" "dont have this model" etc... frus buy online pulak leceh... hate the waiting part.. hate the delivery part.. hate the followup part... and lastly afraid my goods kena "songlap" by postman later. why o why ..

i've experienced order being delayed before that's why I'm saying this.

bought a watch and no news for 2 days.. I had to dig around in Google for the seller's LYN thread (manage to get his cell number) and chase him to send it over... lucky he did it on the 3rd day. Else it'll likely be a weekend that the order arrive and I'd have to drive to the not-so-near post office in Shah Alam (i stay in Kota Kemuning - got through a toll + 20 mins drive per way)

promise say "sent next business day once payment entered" end up he didn't even know I ordered till I whatsapp him! (good thing I ordered on Monday) And yea he had 400+ ppl listed him as "Safe seller" on lelong.my. So u calculate la how many days till I received my item... on Friday only safely reached my hands.

not my first time buying online... a couple of times.. but the above was the worse.. it plays on you psychologically + emotionally.

if you're a victim of someone truly not receiving an order (either their parcel just disappeared, or kena conned by seller etc).. that would be even worse. Once kena u will think many times again to order online. The more expensive the product, the more pain also.

real life experience is better than anyone's assurance out there..
