Pros

Ultra light weight
The weight of the phone does not exceed 177 grams, which is a very light weight compared to all phones in this price category, which exceed the barrier of 200 and sometimes 210 grams, such as Redmi and Poco phones
large screen display
The screen has a diagonal of 6.7 inches, which is a large viewing area that makes the user experience an enjoyable experience while watching content or playing games. It also has a 90Hz refresh rate and FHD + resolution to ensure a smooth scrolling experience and clear images with pin-point details.
good main camera
The phone has a quad camera setup at the back and a 64-Megapixel main sensor with an f/1.8 lens slot to provide clear images and accurate details while shooting in different lighting conditions.
Excellent battery life
The phone contains a 4000 mAh battery, which is a very sufficient charging capacity for all forms of uses throughout a whole day on a single charge. It is good to see that the phone supports a charging speed of 22.5 watts.
Good price
The Honor X8 phone targets users of the economy class, but it places its full focus on those with limited budgets from students and young users, so the phone comes at a price that is affordable for a very large segment of users.

Cons

plastic manufacturing materials
Despite the aesthetic design of the phone in terms of shape, it is made entirely of plastic, and the back side is a fingerprint magnet, so you will have to clean it from time to time to make sure it stays clean.
Android 11
The phone runs Android 11 preloaded, which is very frustrating given the length of time that has passed since Google launched Android 12 officially.
Very modest processing chip
Unfortunately, the Snapdragon 680 4G SoC is poor in terms of performance, and although it is able to provide a smooth gaming experience, it does not guarantee you to achieve 90 frames per second in modern and advanced gaming titles.
Does not support 5G technology
The phone is of the fourth generation only because the processing chip does not contain a 5G modem.
It does not support the installation of additional memory
The phone does not have a microSD slot and therefore you will not be able to increase the storage space in any way.
