The main thing that attracts attention in Honor 6X is the dual main camera. Huawei was the first to equip its flagships with a dual camera, last year it took the 7th iPhone, but from the mid-range models, the Xiaomi Redmi Pro only boasts of a dual camera. Returning to the Honor 6X, we see that the upper sensor is a 12 megapixel Sony IMX386 matrix with phase autofocus and LED flash, the focusing speed is only 0.3 seconds. This sensor also distinguishes the increased size of the photosensitive pixel to 1.25 nm with the technology of isolation of individual pixels Prim ISP.Thanks to this, the pictures have surprisingly little color noise and very natural color rendition. The lower monochrome sensor has 2 mp. At first glance this is very little. Even Xiaomi Redmi Pro has a 5Mp auxiliary module, not to mention the Honor 8 flagship, where the second module has the same resolution as the first one - 12MP.However, Huawei explains that 2 mn of the lower sensor is enough, becauseits task is to capture as much light as possible, since monochrome matrices are much more sensitive than color ones. The camera folds the light from the lower sensor with the color of the top and produces very high-quality photos even in low light conditions. In addition, thanks to a dual camera Honor 6X can do the same as boasted the creators of the 7th iPhone - bokeh( ie the ability to beautifully blur the background in the photo).There is another interesting feature - a selective fill of color will allow you to place color accents on black and white photos.

The front camera of 8 mp is equipped with a wide-angle lens of 77 ° and an image processor Prim. There is a function for identifying faces. Without autofocus, while, according to reviews, she makes selfi qualitatively.
