Honor is preparing a 5G smartphone on a Qualcomm processor
With the transfer of the Honor brand from Huawei to the Zhixin New Information Technology consortium, it has been able to operate without any restrictions related to the US sanctions imposed on its former parent company. This means that he can return to the production of smartphones using technology from American companies.
With Honor no longer bound by bans, it has a choice of core components, including those from major chip suppliers like Qualcomm, MediaTek, and Samsung.
According to network sources, Honor is working with Qualcomm on a 5G smartphone. According to the GSMArena resource, despite the fact that there is no information about the characteristics of the novelty yet, in any case we are not talking about the Honor V40 series smartphone, whose representatives will be based on MediaTek chips. In particular, it is reported about their possible use of the Dimensity 1000+ processor.
At the Snapdragon Technology Summit, the President of Qualcomm expressed his delight at Honor’s entry into the market and said he looked forward to further collaboration between the two companies. According to a source close to Qualcomm, the companies are close to entering into a supply cooperation agreement. It seems that the appearance of Honor smartphones with Qualcomm chips is not long to come.
