Should i get the honor 5x??

[Faheemarif252]

I'm thinking of buying the honor 5x... It is of 280$ in my country.... Should i go for it, or is there any other phone in this price range i should consider....

One of my main concerns would be if this phone will get custom roms..... I will most likely get the L21 ver.....

I don't know what country you're in and if the prices for other devices are inflated too. I would not pay $280USD for this device however, that's more than the retail price.

I think this phone will get custom roms, but whether it will get official CyanogenMod support is a different story.

Any OnePlus device will perform better and have better camera than the Honor 5X. I had the OnePlus X before this, which is generally better, but I bought the Honor 5X just to try something different, and it have better battery life, bigger screen, and the finger print reader.. I also had the OnePlus One which had a very nice camera and good battery life.

Other phone to consider is the Alcatel Idol 3, which is about the same specs as the Honor 5X but smaller screen. There is the new Idol 4 as well.

Also the Nexus 6 is a good consideration.

Thnx for the reply..... Not only prices are inflated in my country, many phones are not available at all.. One plus x and the idol 3 aren't available in my country, i can get a used one plus one for 250$.... But i really don't wanna go for a used option....

Also i know that the l24 model will get custom roms... I was talking specifically for the L21 model..
Will this model get roms apart from cm?? Like aokp etc??
