The new color for Honor 8C, called “Phantom Blue” is
probably making a debut on April 23. The Huawei’s
subsidiary is adding a new color edition to help boost sales of the device. In
addition to Honor 8X, the Honor 8C is also receiving a new gradient color –
Phantom Blue edition. It will come with 4GB RAM + 128GB internal storage and
will retail at 899 Yuan (US$ 133), reveals an official poster on Weibo.
The Honor 8C was launched last year on October 11th
with four color options of Platinum Gold, Magic Night Black, Aurora Blue, and
Nebula Purple. The device is available in two different storage variants –
4GB+64GB and 4GB+32GB storage.
The Honor 8C features a 6.26-inch TFT LCD IPS HD+ display with a screen
resolution of 1520×720 pixels, pixel density of 269 PPI, and a screen-to-body
ratio of 86.6 percent. There’s a tiny notch on the top of the display to host a
front selfie camera. It is powered by a
Qualcomm Snapdragon 632 SoC and coupled with Adreno 506 GPU.
A dual rear camera with a 13 MP primary and a 2 MP depth
sensor is present. As like of the Honor 8X, the dual shooters are aligned in a
vertical symmetry. On the front side, an 8 MP shooter with f/2.0 aperture is
available for beautiful selfies and video calls.
Other features including a 4000 mAh battery with
fast charging, rear-mounted fingerprint sensor, a soft flashlight are present
on the Honor 8C. It runs on Android 8.1 Oreo out of the box with EMUI on the
top.
