New Honor with 4 cameras, bezel-less display soon in India

New Delhi: Chinese smartphone maker Huawei`s sub-brand Honor is likely to launch its next smartphone with four cameras and edge-to-edge display, an industry first, around Diwali.

Honor India is working to bring front and rear dual camera systems and bezel-less display in their upcoming smartphone -- similar to what we saw on the recently-launched Huawei "Maimang 6" in China, industry sources told IANS on Wednesday.

The company has also launched a contest named "See Yourself With 2 Eyes" that asks users to share their best selfies, which further indicates the brand may introduce a camera-centric smartphone.

The trend of bezel-less displays started earlier this year with the launch of smartphones such as Samsung Galaxy S8, S8+ and LG G6.

Earlier this month, Huawei introduced its flagship `Kirin 970` chipset which can perform artificial intelligence (AI) computing tasks faster using far less power.

`Kirin 970` chipset has its own AI processor built-in. 

"Huawei is committed to developing smart devices into intelligent devices by building end-to-end capabilities that support coordinated development of chips, devices and the Cloud," said Richard Yu, CEO of Huawei Consumer Business Group.
