Huawei has taken the wraps off its latest handset, the Honor 6 Extreme Edition. It’s a 5-inch Android KitKat handset that’s powered by the company’s homegrown octa-core processor, 3GB of RAM and 4G LTE.
The Huawei Honor 6 Extreme Edition features a number of substantial upgrades over its predecessor, the original Honor 6, which was released in June. This newer model touts a Kirin 928 octa-core processor instead of the older (yet still respectably fast) Kirin 920. It’s accompanied by Mali-T628 MP4 graphics, and the data connectivity is handled by a LTE-A Cat.6 modem for speeds of up to 300Mbps.

Other specs remain identical with the Honor 6. For instance, the Huawei Honor 6 Extreme Edition comes equipped with the same 5-inch display with 1080p screen resolution and IPS technology. The camera duo hasn’t changed either—a 13-megapixel rear-facing camera and a secondary 5-megapixel shooter at the front.
Accessories are aplenty for the Huawei Honor 6 Extreme Edition. These include headphones, screen protector, NFC tags, case covers and others. Apparently only 9,999 units of the Extreme Edition will be sold, with pre-orders available beginning October 21. Each unit will cost $489 or Php22,000.
