Qualcomm in talks with Honor to supply chips

09 December 2020
Huawei’s sale of Honor was official less than a month ago and the company is free of the US’ Huawei ban.

Honor shouldn't face any sanctions & restrictions after their separation from Huawei. Hopefully we'll get to see some impressive phones from them in the coming years.

    If Honor can continue the same high quality phones they've been releasing while being under Huawei's umbrella, then Honor might be my next phone.

    I'm sure they'll be more expensive since they'll be using Snapdragon soc, hoping it won't be too big of a difference in price.

                        ericwang, 10 Dec 2020It is a dream For example,the Mi10Pro,all component cost a... moreNote 20 Ultra costs $650 with manufacturing costs and software costs included. If without that, Note 20 Ultra only costs $550. What's to be dreamed about? If Honor could be like Xiaomi with not taking more than 5% of profits frombany products, then they can definitely do it.

                            For example,the Mi10Pro,all component cost around 550USD,still not the best phone,that not include tax,R&D cost,assemble cost

                                  GMS is more important than Qualcomm chips. They should work on getting that back first.

                                    The only way Honor could be an top smartphone brand in the world (top 5), would be to make incredible products that have the potential to reshape the entire industry and catch a lot of attention.

                                    4. Poco F1/F2 Pro/X3
                                    5. Huawei P20/P30
                                    6. Huawei Mate 10/20

                                    Put Huaweis camera hardware, Stock android software, flagship snapdragon chips, and amazing build quality, and price it under 600 dollars, and it will be an killer phone
