The Honor 9N will be available in Midnight Black, Sapphire Blue, Lavender Purple, and Robin Egg Blue colour variants.
The Honor 9N is finally official and in-line with previous reports, the device is indeed the rebranded 2018 Honor 9i, which has already launched in China. The smartphone features an all-glass design and comes equipped with a thin-bezel display with a notch on top. It will be available in Midnight Black, Sapphire Blue, Lavender Purple, and Robin Egg Blue colour variants. Let's tell you what the phone looks like in terms of specifications.
Honor 9N Specs: Coming to the specifications, the smartphone features a 5.84-inch Full HD+ display with a 19:9 aspect ratio and a notch on top. Notifications are stacked on either side of the notch and it can also be hidden. For its processing needs, the Honor 9N uses an Octa-core HiSilicon Kirin 659 SoC, coupled with 4GB of RAM and it comes in the earlier mentioned variants. Coming to optics, the handset is equipped with 13MP + 2MP dual rear cameras with an LED flash. On the front, it features a 16MP sensor with 2.0µm pixel sensor size. The Honor 9N's cameras support 3D face conturing, Face Unlock, PDAF and Bokeh Shift features. It also comes with a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor. In terms of software, the Honor 9N runs on EMUI 8.0, which is based on Android 8.0 Oreo. The entire package is backed by a 3000mAh battery.
The Honor 9N will get Huawei's GPU Turbo Tech via an OTA update in the future. GPU Turbo is a software update said to reassemble the traditional graphics processing framework at the lower layer system for improving the user experience. Huawei claims that with the software, its devices can deliver faster performance and consume less power at the same time. Huawei also says that even if its device doesn’t support High Dynamic Range (HDR), it will still be able to deliver "outstanding" graphics quality with GPU Turbo tech. We will surely test this claim in our review.
Honor 9N Features: The Honor 9N comes with some interesting features that have been carried forward from other Huawei and Honor devices. For instance, the phone comes with a Paytm Pay Feature which uses a fingerprint and directs users to the pay page of Paytm. Users can select their preferred fingerprint id to make fast payments. The feature was earlier spotted on the Huawei P20 Pro. The phone also features a Ride Mode, which ensures the safety of riders by keeping them away from unwanted distractions on their phones while driving. There is also a Party Mode which enables users to connect 6 smartphones with 1 master device to play in-sync music.
