Calling OT Poors. Anybody considering the Honor 5X phone?

Already posted on the TECH board. Pretty much a wasteland over there, so I figured I'd post over here. May get the ax, but so be it.

LAS VEGAS—The new Huawei Honor 5X is the best value phone I've seen in a long time. At an adorably silly evening event here at CES, Huawei unveiled the Honor 5X, an all-metal unlocked Android smartphone for under $200, and the Honor Band Z1, a $79 smartwatch.

CES 2016 Bug ArtHonor is a Huawei sub-brand that targets millennials and those "young at heart." But its phones offer great value for money and good-looking design, which makes them for everyone. Honor phones are spectacularly popular in Spain and France, among other places, but they haven't come to the U.S. before.

200 dollar cell phone sound pretty tempting. Anyone considering one. Shipment scheduled for the end of the month.

Asus Zenfone sounds like a pretty good budget phone as well, but the reviews say it feels kinda cheap. A good case may remedy that though.
