Coming back to the main highlight, the Honor 6X's dual-camera setup features one 12-megapixel sensor that supports PDAF and a 2-megapixel sensor just below it. Over at the front, the Honor 6X comes with a 8-megapixel sensor for selfies. The fingerprint sensor at the back sits below the dual-camera setup. The company claims that the Honor 6X's fingerprint sensor can unlock the smartphone in 0.3 seconds.
