After launching the Honor 10 earlier this year, the Huawei sub-brand is now reportedly gearing up to launch its ‘Lite’ variant. As per a teaser shared on Weibo (spotted by MyDrivers), the Honor 10 Lite edition will be launched in China on November 21.
The launch event for the Honor 10 Lite edition will take place at Beijing in China. Honor is said to have tied up with Chinese pop singer Zhu Zhengting to promote the Lite brand.
As the name suggests, the Honor 10 Lite edition will be a toned-down version of the Honor 10. Based on what has leaked so far, the upcoming device is expected to feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon 710 SoC, dual rear cameras, and a fingerprint sensor placed at the back. On the software front, it will run Android Oreo out-of-the-box. The device is also likely to boast gradient color schemes.
