A schematic of the Honor 9X has surfaced which gives
us an idea of the phone's design. This diagram comes from reliable
leakster Evan Blass, which shows that the 9X will sport a pop-up selfie camera,
thus enabling a notch-less screen.
At the back, the 9X will have a dual camera setup
aligned vertically in the upper-left corner. However, unlike its predecessor
8X, the 9X doesn't have a fingerprint scanner on its rear, which implies Honor
either ditched it or has it embedded to the screen. With the camera mounted on
an elevating mechanism and thus slowing down face unlock we'd guess it's the
latter.
Other things we can ascertain from this image are
the power key and volume rocker on the right side of the phone, and a USB port
(hopefully Type-C) at the bottom. The Honor 9X is confirmed to feature Kirin 810 SoC,
and we expect more details to surface until it goes official later this month.
