The Honor 6X may be cheap in price, but it’s an appealing buy precisely because it packs a few features you’d normally see paired with a flagship.

The 6X comes able with a few fingerprint gestures, including the ability to use the rear-facing sensor as a shutter button for the camera app. You can also use it to swipe down on the notifications shade, for those times when you’ve only got one finger that’s mobile.
