We first covered the Huawei Honor 3C Play Edition back in August 2014 when it was officially announced in China. At the time, it was priced at CNY599 (RM308) and came with a design fairly similar to the Huawei Honor 3C. It turns out that we could soon see the Honor 3C Play as the Huawei Honor 3C Lite. Tech specs are more or less the same as mentioned earlier such as a 1.3GHz MediaTek MT6582 processor, 1GB RAM, 16GB storage, 5-inch display at 720p pixel resolution, 8MP rear camera, 2MP front camera, dual-SIM support and Android 4.2. Huawei Malaysia have teased it officially with teaser images on their Facebook page and at VMALL.my so we expect the Malaysia release date to be very soon. No news yet on pricing but we expect it to go for the entry-level market at around RM299 to RM349. Stay tuned for more developments.

The Honor 6X has appeared at China's TENAA, this time sporting dual cameras on the rear with a dual-LED flash. Like the Huawei Honor 6 before it, it will have the same metallic alloy trim on the top and sides along with the same rounded corner look. Other tech specs and features include a 1.8GHz octa-core processor (probably the Kirin 925 or newer), 3GB RAM, 32GB storage, up to 64GB microSD support and 5.5-inch full HD display. The smartphone measures in at 150.4 x 75.68 x 7.5mm and will probably support 4G LTE Cat6. It could also have an IR blaster just like the Honor 6. We have no idea as to what the dual camera on the rear actually does but such setups usually mean either a 3D effect or after focus effect. No news or details on Malaysia release dates or pricing but the Honor 6X is expected in China by the end of 2014. Stay tuned and we'll see if Huawei Malaysia brings it in anytime soon.

Huawei recently unveiled another worthy addition to their Honor smartphone lineup with the Huawei Honor 4X. The most notable feature that it offers a 64-bit 1.2GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 processor. Other tech specs include a 5.5-inch display with 720 x 1280 pixel resolution, 2GB RAM, 13MP rear camera, 5MP front camera, 4G LTE, 3000 mAh battery and Android 4.4. Measuring in at 7.9mm thin it uses the same flat and thin rounded corners look as the Huawei Honor 6. Like the Honor 6 it also seems to do away with any Huawei branding whatsoever but it should be noted that it is all set for Android 5.0 Lollipop as the capacitive keys below the screen match with those on Android 5.0. While we don't have any Malaysia release dates or pricing, it is currently on pre-order for 1299 CNY (RM694) which would really shake things up more in the midrange. It is expected to ship on 6 November 2014.

Huawei have officially announced another Honor with the Huawei Honor Holly. Announced in India, we're not sure if it will make it's way to Malaysia but it still manages to offer a 5-inch display with 720 x 1280 pixel resolution. The design looks very phablet-like with what appears to be a textured backside. Tech specs and features include a 1.3GHz quad-core MediaTek processor, 1GB RAM, 16GB storage, 8MP rear camera, 2MP front camera, 2000 mAh battery and Android 4.4 KitKat. Priced at 6999 INR (RM373) this places the Honor Holly below the Huawei Honor 3C which offers similar tech specs except for the RAM and front camera. The Huawei Honor Holly will be available in India from today.

After releasing the Huawei Honor 6, Huawei has gone on to announce the Huawei Honor 6 Extreme Edition. While it offers nearly the same looks and tech specs as the earlier released Honor 6, the Honor 6 Extreme Edition includes a 2GHz octa-core Kirin 928 processor. The original Honor 6 uses an octa-core HiSilicon Kirin 920 processor. Most of the other tech specs such as 3GB of RAM, 5-inch display with 1080 x 1920 pixel resolution, 4G LTE Cat6, 13MP rear camera and 5MP front camera remain the same though. The other major difference is that it has 32GB of storage and perhaps some more "extreme" accessories like premium headphones, a 0.2mm tempered glass screen protector and a protective casing. No Malaysia release dates or pricing yet but it is set for pre-order on 21 October 2014 for $489 (RM1591).
