The honor 10 might have already been launched first in China, but this latest Global Launch in London is counted as the official one. One might be quick to point out the similarities between this phone and the Huawei P20 series, but keep in mind that both live under the same roof so there's that. Also, apparently there is a tiny bit difference between the global and China model, the former will only have the 4GB RAM model whereas the Chinese keep the 6GB RAM model. Besides that, everything else remains the same.
Another difference between the honor 10 and P20 series is the lack of Leica grade lens, which you already probably know. Despite that, the honor 10 comes with AI 2.0 in the camera system and it can shoot pretty good photos on the dual rear 16MP + 24MP setup. All the user needs to do is turn on the AI icon on the camera user interface and they are set to go. You should probably be happy to know that it's capable of shooting up to 22 different object and sceneries, what's more, honor will add in more via OTA updates in the near future. Sweet.
Also not forgetting the honor 10 has its own unique colour design, the Phantom Blue and Phantom Green are really one of a kind, able to display the hidden shade of purple + blue or green from multiple angles. Of course, there's also Glacier Grey and Midnight Black as well, but just as not as attractive. Below is the recap of the tech-specs of the global version:
