Huawei is rumored to take the wraps off the Honor 9 smartphone on June 27th at a press event in Berlin, at least for the European market.
Previous rumors hinted that it may launch on June 20/21 at least in China, but things could be different for the customers in Europe.
Press Event in Berlin
The company has apparently sent out press invites for its event in Berlin, Germany where the company is expected to make an Honor-related announcement. The invite (posted below) suggests that if the Honor 9 is to be unveiled on June 27th, it will bring some much needed improvements to the camera, improving the photography in low-light conditions.
Rumors suggest the handset will come with a 5.2-inch display sporting a resolution of 1920 by 1080 pixels with the processing handled by the Kirin 960 processor, 4/6GB of RAM, 32/64GB of internal storage, a 20 MP + 12 MP dual rear camera setup and ships with Android 7.0 Nougat as its operating system out of the box.
Expected Features and Specifications
The Honor 9 is anticipated to be a significant upgrade over its predecessor, the Honor 8. The dual rear camera setup, featuring a 20 MP and a 12 MP sensor, is expected to offer enhanced photographic capabilities, particularly in low-light conditions. This could be a game-changer for users who enjoy night photography or capturing moments in dimly lit environments. The inclusion of advanced camera technology is likely to appeal to photography enthusiasts and casual users alike.
The Kirin 960 processor, which is expected to power the Honor 9, is known for its efficiency and performance. This chipset, combined with 4GB or 6GB of RAM, should provide a smooth and responsive user experience, whether you’re multitasking, gaming, or streaming content. The choice between 32GB and 64GB of internal storage offers flexibility for users with different storage needs, and the possibility of expandable storage via a microSD card slot could further enhance the device’s appeal.
The 5.2-inch display with a resolution of 1920 by 1080 pixels is expected to deliver sharp and vibrant visuals, making it ideal for media consumption, gaming, and everyday use. The screen size strikes a balance between usability and portability, catering to users who prefer a device that is easy to handle with one hand.
The Honor 9 is also expected to ship with Android 7.0 Nougat out of the box, offering a range of features and improvements over previous versions of the operating system. Users can look forward to enhanced notifications, improved battery life, and a more refined user interface. Additionally, Huawei’s custom EMUI skin is likely to bring additional features and customization options to the device.
