Bose QC35 II update adds Amazon Alexa support, enhancements
The portrait mode works well, though, and you can switch to the wide-aperture mode when taking a photo of something that isn’t a person. You also have lots of other modes, including light painting, time lapse and slo-mo to play with. Video defaults to 720p, so make sure you choose 1080p to get the best possible quality. The lack of stabilisation means you need to keep the phone as still as possible, but video and audio quality is reasonably good. In low light, including indoors at night with artificial lighting, you can easily notice the drop in quality: photos lack detail and sharpness, which is presumably caused by a lot of noise reduction. You also need to make sure your subject stays still: we ended up with a lot of blurry photos of excitable animals and children. Here’s the 100 percent crop which shows the level of detail captured: Software The 7X doesn’t have Oreo, but it’s possible Honor will release an update in the not too distant future.
Out of the box you get Android 7.0 Nougat with EMUI 5.1 – older than the EMUI 8 you’ll find on the Mate 10 Pro. Still, the interface is pretty much identical and it’s hard to spot many differences between the versions. For those unfamiliar with EMUI, it’s looks a lot like Samsung’s TouchWiz and the default setting of placing all apps on home screens makes it very familiar to iOS users. It has some nifty features such as double-tapping the screen to wake it, and double-pressing the volume-down button to launch the camera app. You have to enable these through the settings as they’re disabled by default. There’s one-key split-screen so you can carry on watching a video (on Netflix, say) while you reply to an email or message.

You’ll also find the same App Twin menu option, but unlike the Mate 10 Pro, you can only sign into two Facebook accounts – there’s no option for Whatsapp or Messenger here. Like EMUI 8, you’ll get warnings when apps are using a lot of power in the background and it’s generally helpful for stopping lots of apps running, freeing up memory with one tap. For audio, you get Huawei’s Histen effects which lets you either play with the EQ or enable a ‘3D sound’ mode where you can adjust a slider from Near to Front to Wide. Unlike on the Mate 10 Pro, those 3D modes seemed ineffective, and it was far more useful having a customisable equaliser to add bass.
