Chinese tech company Honor has teased its return to India with a “new era of innovation.” In a post on X (formerly Twitter), the company suggests that it will share the update soon.
Honor has been rumoured to re-enter the Indian smartphone market with a new smartphone. Interestingly, former Realme India CEO Madhav Sheth has also teased his association with the company. In a separate post, he asked fans to stay tuned.
Honor India is currently getting ready for its comeback in the Indian smartphone market and building hype on its social media platforms.
Both Honor Tech and Madhav Sheth are running a countdown on social media platforms leading to the much-anticipated announcement from the brand.
Yesterday, the company and Sheth teased the comeback in India with the letter H and Hello India message.
Today, they have shared the letter O in a similar aesthetic, with the ‘Optimum Tech is on its way’ message.
The style and design of the letter O have sparked a debate online, with many speculating that the debut smartphone from the brand in India could be the Honor X9a.
Considering that Honor just launched Honor X9 in India, X9a could be a logical next step as far as the nomenclature is concerned.
The dual-layer circular O symbol is uncannily similar to the camera island of the X9a. At this point, all of this is just speculation, and we can expect the brand to tweet out N, O, and R letters before announcing anything concrete.
Honor X9a comes with a 6.67-inch FHD+ OLED curved display with 800nits peak brightness, 120Hz refresh rate, and 300Hz touch sampling rate.
The smartphone is powered by the Snapdragon 695 chipset accompanied by the Adreno 619 GPU.
It comes with a 5,100mAh battery with 40W fast charging and boots Magic UI based on Android OS.
Honor X9a features a triple rear camera setup comprising a 64MP primary shooter, 5MP ultra-wide + depth sensor, and 2MP macro lens.
The rear camera setup comes with features like night mode, portrait mode, HDR, time-lapse, super macro, and more.
On the front, there is a 16MP selfie camera with 1080p video recording support. Other features include Wi-Fi, NFC, Type-C, Bluetooth 5.1, face recognition, and more.
Last month, The Economic Times reported that Honor, formerly a sub-brand of Huawei, is expected to re-enter the Indian market in August.
The report adds that Honor phone’s return to India will be overseen by Sheth. Honor will work with its India partner and Noida-based PSAV Global to distribute its smartphones in India.
The Noida-based company distributes select Honor-branded products, such as wearables, in the country.
Honor is not planning to re-establish an India-specific team but to rely on PSAV Global’s network of over 5,000 retailers and over 100 distributors across several Indian towns and cities.
