It launched a couple of mid-range smartphones earlier this year, but its definitive return happened with the release of the Honor 50 series. These devices have been selling very well and gave the company third place in sales for the third quarter of 2021 in China. Now, Honor is ready to unveil the Honor 60 series and keep its growth in the domestic market. The lineup will be composed of an Honor 60, Honor 60 Pro, and possibly an Honor 60 SE. Today, the Pro had its full specs and design revealed.

A day ahead of the launch, specifications, and features of the Honor 60 Pro 5G have leaked in all their glory. Unfortunately, those expecting a flagship-tier performance will be disappointed.
