News & Reviews:   HONOR 50 pre-order

Last week, a teaser confirmed that the Honor 50 series would be launching on 16 June 2021. It's rumoured that there would be at least three variants to the series. We don't know if they'll all look the same, but there have been plenty of new design leaks that appeared yesterday.

We are less than a week from witnessing the new HONOR 50 series. Scheduled for 16 June 2021, it was only a matter of time that a rendered design would leak online and here we are. In this rendered image, the HONOR 50 series has a different look from previous rumours.

We have been writing a couple of HONOR 50 series leaked news here and there. However, there was no information about the release date until now. Spotted on the Weibo forums, the official launching date is 16 June 2021. 

A hands-on picture posted by Digital Chat Station on Weibo seems to hint that the upcoming HONOR 50 series could come with a 100W fast charger out of the box. With that in mind, there could be a possibility that the HONOR 50 Pro Plus will support up to 100W fast charging while the 50 and 50 Pro will only support up to 66W fast charging.

It seems that Digital Chat Station recently stated on the user’s weibo account, stating that HONOR’s upcoming HONOR 50 will be the first phone to come equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 775G chipset. The HONOR 50 Pro, as well as the HONOR 50 Pro Plus, on the other hand, are expected to come equipped with the top of the line Snapdragon 888 chipset instead.

HONOR's upcoming flagship series HONOR 50 is expected to be launched either in the first half of 2021 or early June. When it happens, we could see three devices that are the HONOR 50, HONOR 50 Pro, and the HONOR 50 Pro Plus. Today, someone has spotted that the devices just got their Chinese 3C certifications and revealed support for up to 100W fast charging.

It seems that Digital Chat Station recently announced on the user’s weibo account stating that HONOR’s upcoming HONOR 50 series smartphones are expected to be unveiled around H1 2021. While not much is known in regards to the Malaysia release date, it does give us a better idea of what to expect when it will be available in the local market.
