The Honor 7X was announced for China last month, as
the brand's first device with the ever so trendy 18:9 screen aspect ratio
(unless you also count the Huawei Mate 10 Lite being sold as the Honor 9i in
India). So far, the Honor 7X has been available in the company's home country
in three color versions: black, blue, and gold.
Next month, however, a new option will be up for
grabs: Flame Red. This hue is already listed on JD, and has been teased by
Honor itself through social media. The red Honor 7X will be out on December 5
at 10:08 AM. It will be priced at CNY 1,299 ($196 at the current exchange
rates). That's the exact same rate as the other colors, so you're not paying a
premium if you love red.
Incidentally, December 5 is the day on which Honor
is holding a big event in London, where we expect the brand to unveil the Honor
7X and Honor V10 internationally. The 7X is headed to major developed markets,
the US and UK included. Perhaps those countries will get the red iteration from
day one, we'll have to wait and see.
