Honor X50 Pro launched in China with Snapdragon 8+ Gen1 SoC and a 108MP main camera
Honor discreetly introduced the X50 Pro smartphone in China today as part of preparations for the Magic 6 series launch. This low-profile launch suggests that Honor aims to position the X50 Pro as a device targeted for offline sales, mainly available in physical stores.
Rumors suggest that the X50 Pro might debut as the Honor X50 GT, possibly for online sales. Honor officially announced the X50 GT’s launch in China on January 6th, featuring the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chip, the same as the X50 Pro. This hints at a potential rebranding.
