SHOPPING for a new phone but don’t want to spend the earth on a new device? We’ve spotted a great discount on a budget-friendly phone.
Amazon has slashed the price of the Honor X6a by 31%, dropping the cost down to just £89.99 – an absolute steal.

As always, while on the hunt for the best deals on popular devices, we managed to stumble across this gem on Amazon’s best-selling mobile phones, sitting comfortably at the number 10 spot, but we expect it to rise even more as people discover this amazing offer.
Since there are so many budget-friendly Android alternatives out there, it’s a wise idea to have a quick browse around to see what’s on offer.
The Sun’s Senior Writer Matt Breen has rounded up the best budget mobiles on the market if you’re looking to look around before deciding.
However, this is advertised as a limited-time deal by Amazon, so you may want to move with a little bit of haste to ensure you don’t miss out and have to pay full price.
The Honor X6 has an ample 6.56-inch screen that should be more than enough for admin, streaming videos, or gaming.
The screen is also 90Hz, so it will provide an extremely smooth experience (however, it does fall slightly short of the fancy flagships like the S24, which has a refresh rate of 120Hz).
In terms of camera quality, the rear triple-camera configuration consists of a 50MP main camera and two 2-megapixel macro and depth cameras for those up-close images.
So, despite falling slightly short of some higher-end devices, you’ll still be capturing memorable moments in vivid detail to relive them later on.
Battery life, however, the Honor X6a is packed with a 5,200mAh battery which outright trumps devices like the iPhone 15‘s 3,349mAh and the S24’s 4,000mAh to provide you with up to 26 hours of music or 37 hours of calls per charge – you won’t have to feel bad about forgetting to charge this one.
The phone has collected quite a few reviews full of high praise. One shopper refers to the Honor X6a as an ‘excellent budget smartphone’ and, after their son tested it with gaming, found it ‘handles everything he needs with multiple apps running without any performance issues.’
Another customer stated, ‘I have ordered multiple phones since last year, but this one is staying.
‘I am a tech geek, so it is hard to impress, but this is one phone to rule them all: build quality, responsiveness, battery life and more!’
If you like the sound of the Honor series but want a more flashy device, it’s worth checking out the brand-new Honor V2 foldable phone, which has just launched.
It’s worth mentioning that the Honor V2 is a much pricier device at £1,499.99 when you make use of our code, but it’s competing with the super-costly Samsung Galaxy Fold series.
Foldable phones are many things, but cheap isn’t one of them: you’re playing in the big leagues.
