In November last year, Huawei announced the sale of the Honor brand and related assets, and the Honor mobile phone officially separated from Huawei. The first phone after becoming independent has attracted much attention.
After becoming independent, Honor is no longer restricted by bans and can procure core components from mainstream suppliers, including Qualcomm, MediaTek, and Samsung.
The Honor V40 series is the first new phone released after the brand became independent, and it is reported to be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 1000+ chipset.
As for Qualcomm, some media recently reported that Honor is developing 5G phones powered by Qualcomm chips.
Unfortunately, the specific Qualcomm chip model used in the Honor phone has not been disclosed. It is unclear whether this Qualcomm 5G chip is the Snapdragon 888.
At the Snapdragon Technology Summit, Qualcomm’s president said he is very pleased that Honor has become a new player in the market and looks forward to future cooperation.
Regarding the cooperation with Honor, Qualcomm stated that both parties are currently discussing the matter, and the future will depend on how the situation develops.
According to insiders at Qualcomm, the cooperation between the two companies is progressing very positively. The two parties are about to reach a supply agreement, and Honor phones with Qualcomm chips seem to be not far from us.
