Huawei has announced that it will be releasing its Honor 5X smartphone in the U.S. starting on Jan. 31.

The device was first announced at CES earlier this month and will be available in gold, silver and gray for $199.99. It will be available from the Huawei website, as well as online retailers like Amazon and Newegg.

The phone offers a sleek and stylish unibody design and seems to take cues from HTC's smartphone lineup. It offers a fingerprint sensor on the front, with reportedly a half-second unlocking time, as well as a 13 megapixel rear-facing and 5 megapixel front-facing camera. The display is 5.5 inches in size and offers a resolution of 1920 by 1080 pixels.

Of course, the phone isn't Huawei's flagship device, and as such, it offers a modest but still powerful Snapdragon 615 processor, which should offer plenty of power for most users. Coupled with that processor is 2 GB of RAM and 16GB of onboard storage, which is a little on the low end but can be improved with a microSD card for those who want to juggle between built-in and card-based storage.

As mentioned, however, this phone only comes at a price of $199.99, which is a great deal for these specs. Sure, they aren't the most incredible, but you'd be hard-pressed finding a better phone for less than $200.
