It may not be December but we are already halfway there! Just today, honor Malaysia has announced its ‘Celebrate Christmas with honor’ promotion of slashing off prices from a number of devices which includes the honor 8 pro, honor 8, honor 6X, honor 6A Pro and honor 5A.

If you're looking to get an Honor device, you're in luck as they are now offering Malaysia Day discounts, deals and freebies including RM300 off for the honor 8 (32GB and 64GB storage), RM200 off the honor 6X (64GB storage) and RM100 off the honor 5A. Those who buy the honor 8 Pro on Vmall.my, will receive a limited edition Mobile Legends skin with an exclusive backpack, glass water bottle and t-shirt worth RM399. The Honor Malaysia Day promotions are available until 1 October 2017.

Following the recent release of the honor 8 Pro, honor Malaysia will be hosting two roadshows at Klang Valley and Penang together with an in-store promotion that will take place at Urban Republic, Queensbay Mall, Penang. At the price of RM1999, customers who purchase the device will be given a special promotion and free giveaways.

Again, last week had no really dominating news but there were some notables. Caving in to the pressure, Microsoft have announced that the full Windows 10 experience may soon run on Qualcomm Snapdragon processors. Fitbit are buying Pebble, effectively marking an end to the initially crowd-funded Pebble smartwatch.

Looking for an affordable smartphone with respectable tech-specs? Maybe what you're looking for is the Honor 5A which was launched alongside the Honor 8 back in September this year. Priced at only RM599 in black and white, or RM629 in gold at VMall.my, you might think that a device this affordable might not be able to offer good performance, but check out what we think of the Honor 5A below.

Can you believe it? We are already at the end of the year, and what better way for Honor Malaysia to give thanks to their fans with its latest Honor Gala Christmas Promotion 2016! This time around, the promotion brings in sales for five of its devices: Honor 8, Honor 5C, Honor 5X, Honor 5A and Honor 7 / 7 Enhanced, all at reduced prices and each coming with free gifts!

Honor Malaysia opened their first concept store in Malaysia yesterday at Plaza Lowyat. The store will let you check out the Honor 8, Honor 5A, Honor 5C, Honor 5X, Honor 6 Plus, Honor 7, and the Honor 7 Enhanced first hand, with a promotion to get these devices plus free gifts up until 21 November 2016. Those who purchase an Honor smartphone can also enter a lucky draw to win the Honor Band Z1, Honor Band SS, Bluetooth Speaker and more.

Just like the Honor 5A which replaces the Honor 4A here in Malaysia, it looks like a new Honor 6X could be coming to replace the Honor 5X as it recently made an appearance at China's TENAA with a metal body, fingerprint sensor and dual rear cameras. Previously, the Honor 6X made an appearance at TENAA back in 2014 but when it arrived in Malaysia it was announced as the Honor 6 Plus.

Without a doubt, this week was the week where Apple rose to the occasion with their new jet black, waterproof, dual camera Apple iPhone 7 Plus and iPhone 7 while the Samsung announced how to replace their recalled Galaxy Note 7 in full disclosure. You can now get the previous gen iPhone 6S Plus, 6S, SE and iPads cheaper than before and Apple also announced their waterproof 2nd-gen Apple Watch Series 2 along with their AirPods. 

Apart from launching their latest flagship, the Honor 8, Honor Malaysia also announced that their Honor 5A will also be launched for Malaysia. Replacing the previous Honor 4A series, it will be available for RM599 in black and white and RM629 in gold at VMALL.my and other authorized retail outlets from 20 September 2016.
