Some exciting news today for anyone awaiting the latest Honor and Nokia handsets as both companies have announced UK availability for their phones.
The Honor 9 was announced in China recently and is due to be ‘revealed’ in Berlin next week. Honor is the online subsidiary of Huawei, and its handsets are often highly thought of – here’s the link to the CSP review of the Honor 8. The sim-free phone is now available to pre-order on Amazon for the mid-range price of £379.99, though there are no details of when shipping might take place. The phone’s specs look decent though, especially for the price:
- 5.15″ 1080P display
- 4GB RAM and Kirrin 960 chip (used on the Huawei P10)
- 20MP + 12MP dual rear camera
- 64GB storage
- 3200mAh battery
It also looks set to be just as shiny as its predecessor! Further details are here
