Honor 6X vs Coolpad Cool 1 camera quality

Honor 6X comes with dual cameras on back – a 12MP + a 2MP. Cool 1 comes with 13MP + 13MP dual cameras on the back. Another thing to notice is that the Cool 1 handset gives you option to choose the aspect ratio i.e. 4: 3 or 16:9 when using wide aperture mode, there is no such option on the 6X.

Honor 6X processing in wide aperture mode is amazingly fast, almost instant, whereas on the Cool 1 handset it takes some time processing images when you hit the click button.

Both handsets captures really great images, I shot the same subject using the 6X and the Cool 1 and here are the results.
