Re: Honor 7?

All by Andrew Orlowski. Could be a fat envelope involved or could be that he just really likes the fingerprint sensor. Fingerprint sensor aside, it seems to be similar spec to the Wileyfox (bigger battery though, and a programmable extra button).

Now my curmudgeonly instincts would tend to go for the Wileyfox...£50 cheaper and running Cyanogenmod, so the extra control really appeals to me. But then I'm not really a heavy phone user, so it's quite possible that the sensor and extra button would appeal a lot more if I spent more time away from the laptop. Horses for courses, I suppose.

One thing I don't know is if Huwei (who make the Honor 7) open sources their drivers so you can put Cyanogenmod on it. That would make all the difference for me.
