Huawei’s Honor to launch Android smartphone in India this year

New Delhi, Oct 20 () Chinese smartphone brand Honor is planning to launch Android-based handset in India by the end of this year, despite a ban on its parent firm Huawei for purchase of software and hardware components from US companies. Besides, the Huawei’s sub-brand is focussing on deployment of internet of things (IoT) technology.

“We are going to launch Honor 9X by the end of this year in India. It will be on Android. Any android phone can be mirrored with Honor smart screen. We have always been thankful to our US partners for their support,” Honor India President Charles Peng told in an interview.
