~ MamakTalk ~: HONOR 50 Series Is Official, Google Services Will Be Included

The HONOR 50 series has been announced by the company. The company announced three phones as part of this series, the HONOR 50, HONOR 50 Pro, and HONOR 50 SE. What’s interesting here is that neither of them come with a flagship SoC, more on that soon.

As many of you already know, HONOR is no longer a part of Huawei, the company was sold a while back. HONOR, unlike Huawei, can now use Google services once again… and yes, all three of these smartphones will support them.

The three devices did get announced in China now, so those models do not offer Google services. They will, however, be coming to Europe and other markets, and will support Google services in those markets, as the company’s smartphones used to do before the US ban.

Having said that, these three devices are very similar in the design department, but not the same. We’ll talk about each of them separately below, starting with the ‘Pro’ model.

HONOR 50 Pro

The HONOR 50 Pro is the most prominent device the company announced. It is made out of metal and glass, and it has a curved display. It also features a pill-shaped camera hole on that display.

The device has been announced in 8GB and 12GB RAM flavors with 256GB of storage. Android 11 comes pre-installed on this phone, with Magic UI 4.2. There are two SIM card slots included here, and a 4,000mAh battery. Speaking of which, that battery supports 100W SuperCharge fast charging, which is wired charging.

A 108-megapixel main camera (f/1.9 aperture) is backed by an 8-megapixel ultra-wide camera (f/2.4 aperture). In addition to that, HONOR also included a 2-megapixel depth camera on the back, and a 2-megapixel macro camera (f/2.4 aperture).

On the front, you’ll find a 32-megapixel main camera (f/2.2 aperture), and a 12-megapixel ultra-wide camera (f/2.4 aperture). The phone also has an in-display fingerprint scanner.
