Honor 9X is launching in India today. Here is everything you need to know about the phone.

Honor has scheduled a launch event today at 12:30 pm in India to announce its first smartphone of 2020– the Honor 9X. The smartphone is already available in China and the brand is expected to launch the same variant in the Indian market.

In its home market, Honor 9X came with EMUI 9.1 based on Android 9.0 Pie, so it is highly unlikely that the phone launches in India with company’s own Harmony OS, which was announced a while ago. Ahead of the launch, the teaser page for Honor 9X is live on Flipkart, suggesting the phone will be available via Flipkart apart from Honor India’s online store.
