It is a budget phone so you can’t expect a performance like Samsung Galaxy S7 or Huawei P9, yet it has a powerful Huawei Kirin 655 octa-core processor along with 3GB RAM and 32GB storage (expandable up to 128GB via a MicroSD card slot). The processor of the phone is more or less equivalent to the Snapdragon 650 chip. Simply it performs quite well without lag.

Honor 6X Review: Software and Apps
The Honor 6X ships with Android Marshmallow 6.0 with Honor’s 4.1 Emotion UI which is one of the better user interfaces. It works well, doesn’t drag the phone down, and the changes from Google’s version of Android are not too annoying.
Unless you’re an Android purist, you’ll be completely fine with Emotion UI.
