After a long wait, Honor has launched its new smartphone in the Indian market. The smartphone maker has been relatively silent over the last six months but plans to be more aggressive with the introduction of its own AppGallery. This also means that the new Honor smartphone will not come pre-installed with any Google apps. It will also not have the Google Play Store. Honor claims that its AppGallery will have more than 1.3 million apps, out of which about 95 per cent will be available for the Indian users.

Already launched in China, the smartphone is the first from Honor to have the AppGallery. The highlights of the phone include a Kirin 810 processor, a 4000 mAh battery and a pop-up selfie camera. The smartphone was initially tipped to be launched in January alongside the Honor 9X.
