Honor plans to launch new smartphones, TV in India

Chinese smartphone maker Honor is not only planning to launch and manufacture new handsets for the Indian market but also looking to bring its televisions to the country soon despite the US ban continuing on its parent firm Huawei.

The company aims to garner 10 per cent market share in Indian smartphone business by 2020.

“We will not only continue to manufacture new smartphones but also continue to provide the excellent after-sales support to our consumers,” Honor India President Charles Peng told PTI in an interview.

In May, the US government added Huawei to an “entity list” of companies barred from receiving US-made hardware and software components without permission from Washington.
