As if the Honor family tree wasn’t complicated
enough, there’s a new model incoming – the Huawei LDD-xxx, which some are
saying is the Honor 9 Lite. TENAA hasn’t given names, but has photographed the
device. To spice things up, there’s a leaked page from the manual, though no
specs are given yet.
The phone has dual front and rear cameras and a
design fairly similar to the new nova 2s. There’s an 18:9 screen on the front
and a fingerprint reader on the rear, once again an odd mix of design elements
from other Huawei phones.
The manual page points to a 3.5mm headphone jack
(woo) and a microUSB port (boo). Specs are scarce right now but rumors suggest
a 5.65” 1080p+ screen, a Kirin 659 chipset (same as Honor 7X), a 13MP + 20MP
camera and a 3,000mAh battery.
Rumored prices are CNY 1,300 (US$ 195/€ 165) for the
3GB/32GB model and CNY 1,600 (US$ 240/€ 205) for the 4GB/64GB version.
