Huawei sub-brand Honor announced the Honor 9X Pro for the global markets earlier this year after it was launched in China back in June last year. It is currently one of the best mid-range smartphones with a pop-up selfie camera. Unfortunately, the Honor 9X Pro is one of the company’s latest phone missing the Google Play Service and Play Store. This is because Huawei still presents in the US Entity list. This doesn’t stop any Honor 9X Pro user from getting the Google Play Store as there are already various methods to install it unofficially. Regarding the same, here we have a guide to download and install Google Play Store on Honor 9X Pro.
Honor 9X Pro can easily install the Google Play Store and Play Service with the help of the Chat Partner app. So, what are you waiting for? Download the Chat Partner APK from below links and follow the below steps to install Play Store on Honor 9X Pro [HLK-AL10, HLK-TL10].
Before talking directly to the process, I just want to let you know that Google doesn’t encourage this kind of unofficial Play Store installation. Honor 9X Pro is not a Google Apps certified device, thus any side-load of Google apps may cause security issues. One should proceed at their own risk and it will be wise to back up your handset first.
