Hi everyone I'm Ricky from Tech Talk and today I want to go through an important
video as I always do on all devices and today is looking at the accessibility
side on the honor 8x so first of all there is an option you can always use
with every device there's preset into the device so without going through the
settings you can press both the volume keys here at the side while pressing
both volume keys for about 5 seconds this message will pop up and it all will
now talk back on your device right from the beginning the talkback is a great
feature and I'll show you more accessible options that you have on your
device including talkback so it's a get into your settings normally what you
need to do is tap the Settings icon so the first couple of options are in a
different place so if we go into display which is here then you have text size so
text size is set on huge so I can read it you then have a View mode here so in
View mode you can change and adjust view of your display making it larger and as
you can see that will change and adjust in the applications here
so coming back scrolling all the way down to the bottom you actually going to
find smart assistant as 3 from bottom this is where it's going to show you all
your accessibility settings so inside here you have accessibility so let's go
into here so starting off at the top is talkback so talkback is a great feature
like I said it's preset in there for a quick accessible shortcuts options we
toggle this on so whip talkback it's going to discuss everything that is on
it your screen and read it all back to you so let me show you as it discuss it
will talk back everything to you you can also highlight anything on your device
wherever you are no matter it being home screen the taskbar or a standard screen
it will read back everything to you so I can highlight to Vodafone here in the
top forty seven percent NFC enabled 11:17 it will talk back everything to me
in a menu option tap once to highlight navigator accessibility and what you do
with two fingers is scroll up and down the display
and you'll hear a pitch tone going up and down so that is the tool back
feature here one of the best features on a smartphone with the power performance
built into the honor 8x it runs really well really smooth with emails and also
on the internet browser as well there is another option which is called select to
speak we're going to toggle this on two axes to toggled on you're gonna get a
fourth icon down here at the bottom which is a little accessibility man and
if I hit place on your screen to hear the read aloud so it will read
everything for you if I press stop and if I press it again and then I touch
somewhere else and will actually read that first
so only talkback the thing that I've actually highlights it which is a great
option again works throughout the device underneath that is switch access this
gives you the ability to use switches to use and to manipulate your device if you
can't with your hands it's a great option and it's really good to see there
then you coming into captions captions will caption what's on your display for
you and give you subtitles underneath that is magnification gesture so if we
turn it on one two three three quick taps with a single finger will zoom into
your display you can use a pinch to zoom option as well and you can then navigate
round your display here as it is a large display you can see a lot of content one
two three to come back and once you do again if you hold on the third tap with
one finger here you can see I'm in and moving around with one finger but soon
as I let go it zooms back out you then have click after cursor stops
moving so you can use a mouse cursor with this one you've got high contrast
text as it's toggled on you'll see a difference in the power button that's
down the right-hand side will end your calls you have speak your password large
mouse pointer is also available you have a mono audio accessibility shortcut like
I discussed at the beginning which is preset to talkback then you have text to
speech output so this is where you can change your pitch and your speed when
your device is talking back to you you have touch and hold the lay here for
dexterity and input issues so it helps you with your device you have color
inversion so with this it's going to give you white text on a black
background but when on the home screen here is going to really change all of
the colors so please only use that when you need it
in the menu options and you also you have color correction here for people
that suffer with miss in the right colors you can change an adjust your
display to change and make it better for you so that is the accessibility option
there are loads of different options inside here from most pooled range of
disabilities making this device possible to use for people with severe
disabilities or even if they just need a single and it will help them turn into
somewhere with magnification and earring options it's all on here coming
under accessibility is a smarter shopping option from high touch to what
this does is using is Amazon UK and you can use this in the camera application
or you can press and hold on an image to see what is available at Amazon UK so
let's test that out now so I've got the camera Roadburn let's test it out on
this little Lego figure here load up Amazon UK it's gonna see if we can find
relevant information and it has done is given a Lego product which is really
good it recognises the Lego figure and gives me Lego products to then go and
buy on Amazon UK is only linked to Amazon UK but if you do shop on Amazon
UK it's gonna be worthwhile there is another option you can use my touch for
and that's where the photographs are with the photograph has two fingers on
the display you're going to get the shimmer and shine and it should
recognize this again it's going to load the Amazon UK store the app cause he
does need to be installed as well so here we go is found call of duty's black
ops four that's correct that's what the image was has given me relevant
information and products so it's a great feature there and I do recommend using
that as well so just get the best possible use out of your smart shopping
experience so underneath high-tech say you've got one hand UI so once toggled
on is going through one hand uy you've got a mini screen view here so if you
swipe from left to right or right to left you're going to have a mini screen
view here that you can use with one hand ey which is great so you can get around
with one hand and you can jump around your device tapping will turn this away
then also underneath you have a shifting keyboard option again once toggled on
the keyboard can shift left to right depending on what hand you are using
your device underneath that you then have motion control so you have flip and
this will mute your device you'll pick up to reduce ringing volume or wake your
device we then have raise up to answer or make calls or then control the
speaker or headset connected to your device then
you have three finger screenshots so if we go inside here
toggle this on with three fingers down the display I'm going to take a
screenshot so you can edit this and then send it away whatever you need to do
with it again great option to have here underneath that you've got touch
disabled mode this is where it's going to try and identify when the device is
accidentally touched and won't actually make any actions come true then also you
have scheduled power on and off functions there as well so coming back
home there is a great array of settings on here for accessibility which is
always great to see at the very beginning as well when you're setting up
your device you have a range of accessibility options that I showed in
the unboxing video it's nice to see that there are so many options on here as
