Following the launch of its new P-Series Flagships, Huawei’s sub-brand Honor has just launched its own flagship into the global market. Say hello to the Honor 10, currently the most affordable handset powered by the Kirin 970 chip.
Yes. You’ve read that right. The Honor 10 is equipped with the same processor that runs the P20 and P20 Pro. It has a 5.84 IPS LCD display with FHD+ resolution and also utilizes a notch to house the front camera and other sensors.. Like the P20, this one also has 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage.
At the back of the device is a dual rear camera system that uses 24MP (Monochrome) + 16MP (RGB) sensors, plus AI-assisted scene detection. Unlike the P20, though, there’s no Leica branding here. At the front is a 24MP snapper with portrait mode and studio effects.
It runs on EMUI 8.1 and packs a 3,400mAh battery compatible with Huawei’s SuperCharge technology. Unlike the P20 and P20 Pro, this one retains the 3.5mm headphone jack, while still retaining a USB Type-C port. It also has an IR blaster.
The Honor 10 comes in 4 colors – Glacier Grey, Midnight Black, Phantom Blue, and Phantom Green. It will retail for 400 Euros, or around PhP25,000 with direct conversion.
