Honor X10's pre-orders go live; X10 Pro in the pipeline
Honor has started accepting pre-orders for its X10 smartphone in China ahead of the May 20 launch. The company has activated a microsite where interested buyers can pre-book the handset. Interestingly, the webpage has also revealed the design and hardware details of the X10. Separately, a leak has shared some details of an X10 Pro model that will reportedly arrive alongside the standard X10.
Honor X10 series: At a glance
The Honor X10 and X10 Pro will sport an edge-to-edge, all-screen design thanks to the front camera being housed in a pop-up module. They will also have a side-mounted fingerprint scanner and a triple-lens rear camera. Further, both models are expected to feature a 6.63-inch Full-HD+ LCD screen, with only the Pro version getting support for the higher 90Hz refresh rate.
For the shutterbugs and selfie lovers
The Honor X10 will house a triple rear camera setup, comprising a 40MP primary sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide shooter, and a 2MP macro camera with LED flash. Meanwhile, the X10 Pro is tipped to offer a similar setup except for an 8MP periscope-style telephoto lens replacing the macro camera. On the front, both the handsets will feature a motorized 16MP pop-up selfie snapper.
Under the hood
The X10 series will reportedly be powered by a 5G-ready Kirin 820 processor, coupled with up to 8GB of RAM and up to 256GB of storage. Under the hood, both phones are tipped to pack a 4,200mAh battery with 22.5W wired charging. Meanwhile, the X10 Pro is likely to go a step ahead by offering 20W wireless charging support.
How much will the phones cost?
According to another leak, the X10 will cost CNY 2,299 (Rs. 24,400) for the base-end 4GB/128GB model, CNY 2,599 (Rs. 27,600) for the 6GB/128GB variant, CNY 2,899 (Rs. 30,800) for the 8GB/128GB configuration, and CNY 3,199 (Rs. 34,000) for top-tier 8GB/256GB version. And though there is no pricing information on the X10 Pro, it will surely carry a slight premium over the vanilla X10.
