Honor X9b's India launch teased

Honor made a comeback to India last September with the Honor 90's launch after a three-year hiatus, and it will introduce a new smartphone in India as HTech's (Honor's representative in the country) CEO Madhav Sheth took to X to tease the upcoming smartphone.

Sheth didn't mention the smartphone's name, but the design suggests it's the X9b unveiled last October. Honor says the phone will "redefine what you can expect from a durable and reliable smartphone."

Guess the phone!
