This may be the most affordable LTE smartphone from an international brand
Aside from the Honor 6 Plus, Huawei also launched their Honor 4X smartphone in Beijing. The Honor 4X is tipped to be the company’s most affordable LTE smartphone, retailing at RMB 999. The direct conversion of the price of the Honor 4X is around 7233 for the higher spec’d, 2GB version which Huawei confirmed that they will be bringing in the PH in the near future.

While the complexities of bringing in a new smartphone is beyond the scope of this article, it’s expected there will be a slight price increase for the Honor 4X when it’s offered in the PH. You can expect it to be lower than 10K. Hopefully Huawei prices the Honor 4X properly, as it has the potential to be the most affordable LTE device from an international brand.
