If everything predicted by the insider @RODENT950 turns out to be a reality, then the Honor V40 Pro series has every chance of becoming popular models. Especially if the company follows the tradition of setting more attractive price tags on its devices than what they asking for top Huawei models. The announcement of the new products should happen in December this year.
