Huawei continues to launch terminals with Google applications. Despite the veto established by the United States last March, Honor, sub-brand of the Chinese company, has announced the launch this week of a new Android smartphone as we know it, that is, with the Play Store, Google Maps or Gmail The explanation? The new Honor 9X was already approved before the US veto.

There are less than 15 days left before the second truce that the United States granted to Huawei ends and everything indicates that the decision of the US government will finally be known. " It seems that there will be an agreement. Likewise, the company will continue working on our own operating system, regardless of what happens on the 19th," they point out from Huawei.

During these months of truce, few have been the Huawei and Honor phones that have seen the light, and those that have made it have reached the market with Android and the applications of the giant search engine, since they had the license already authorized. It is the case of the Huawei Note 5T and now the Honor 9X.

For its part, Huawei presented in September its new flagship, the Huawei Mate 30, which today has not reached stores. It would be the first phone in China to reach the European market without Google applications, so it would not be surprising that Huawei is waiting to see what happens on the 19th to put a date on your phone.

Will the Honor 9X be the last Android phone or are there more graduates ready to go? " Now the portfolio is key and total confidentiality is maintained. We are attentive to what happens on the 19th," they respond.

269 ​​euros with "possible sales"

Honor wants its new terminal to maintain the good figures that the company obtained in past Black Friday. For this, the brand does not hesitate to make it clear that the new Honor 9X will suffer possible discounts for the coming month, with Black Friday, Cyber ​​Monday and the Christmas campaign just around the corner.

The truth is that Honor knows that the competition is tough and needs to play the trick of low prices to attract users against Xiaomi or the new Chinese brand 'low cost', Realme.

What does Honor offer for 269? As a terminal with a good finish, pop-up front camera and triple rear lens.

Specifically, the Chinese company boasts a front without just frames with a 91% screen ratio because the front camera is hidden in a module that only appears when activating the selfie. It is the first time that Honor uses this mechanism to take full advantage of the screen and according to the company it holds up to 100,000 openings. In addition, it has a fall protection system so that the camera module is hidden in the event that the phone falls to the ground.

Honor has opted for the fingerprint reader on the back instead of on the screen or on the side, where it has already been placed on other models. Depending on the brand, it is more comfortable for a 6.59-inch phone. There is no facial recognition.

In this rear part there are also three lenses commanded by a main camera of 48 Mpx, a secondary of 2Mpx that allows portrait mode and a super wide angle of 8 Mpx and 120 degrees of vision. Artificial intelligence is, according to the Chinese company, the one that makes it possible for you to take with hardly any light to come out much better. We will have to try it.

In terms of power, it works with the Kirin 710 F processor with 4 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage with MicroSD card slot with 512 GB capacity. In addition, 4,000 mAh battery.

The Honor 9X will be on sale this week at Phone House and half Markt for 269 euros , although from China they say it will reach other platforms.
