Honor has expanded its portfolio with two inexpensive smartphones. We've already seen Honor X5b, but it turns out that it also has an improved version, Honor X5b Plus.

Honor X5b and Honor X5b Plus share many common features, because in reality, these models differ in memory and cameras. They look the same -= they have simple shapes with "kitchen" camera frames, flat sides and flat screens. These LCD displays have a diagonal of 6.56 inches, HD+ resolution and a refresh rate of 90 Hxz. Both are surrounded by a fairly large frame, with a droplet notch for a 5-megapixel selfie camera (f/2.2). The smartphones are powered by a MediaTek Helio G36 processor with an LTE modem.

As I mentioned, Honor X5b and Honor X5b Plus differ in memory. Honor X5b is offered in a 4+64 GB variant, while Honor X5b Plus - 4+128 GB. The same is true for cameras. The base model has a 13-megapixel main camera, while the Plus has a 50-megapixel (f/1.8) one. In both cases, the cameras are accompanied by a background blur and a diode. Returning to the similarities, the 5200 mAh batteries are the same. The prices are of course different. Honor X5b costs the equivalent of $80, while the Honor X5b Plus costs $106.
