Honor, the sub-brand of Huawei announced its latest Honor 20 series smartphones at a special event in India today. These include the Honor 20, Honor 20 Pro, and Honor 20i. The first devices are the flagship smartphones offering a punch-hole display, Kirin 980 SoC, and quad-rear camera setup. Last but not least, the Honor 20i features a water-drop notch, Kirin 710 SoC, and triple rear cameras.
The Honor 20, Honor 20 Pro and Honor 20i are the first among the company handsets to be announced after Google made restrictions of using its Google Play Store and Play Services amid US government orders. This doesn’t stop Huawei for further development as the company already started working on its own operating system. According to the reports, the Huawei’s first ever operating system may be called “Oak OS” and is expected to launch by September this year.
