Huawei’s Honor is all set to launch the new Honor V10 smartphone in China as the company has started sending the official invites for its event scheduled for November 28th in China via their Weibo account. The Honor V10 will be the successor to the Honor V9 smartphone that was launched back in February this year with a dual rear camera and 6GB of RAM.
The V10 is expected to come with upgraded features and specifications from the predecessor and is expected to be priced slightly higher than the V9 price. The device has now received the TENAA approval for three of its model numbers that are BKL-AL20, BKL-AL00 and BKL-TL10. Unfortunately, the TENAA listings of the device do not have any images and specifications of the device for which we may have to wait for some days.

The device has also been leaked in some HD renders on Weibo that show a full-screen Quad-HD display for the device with an 18:9 aspect ratio and 2560×1440 pixels resolution. It will be powered by the octa-core HiSilicon Kirin 970 processor with an i7 co-processor and will have Android 8.0 Oreo pre-installed.
The device will feature a dual rear camera with a 16-megapixel and a secondary 12-megapixel sensor and it will also have AI features. The rumours further confirm that the Honor V10 will have the same 6GB of RAM and will have 64GB and 128GB internal storage options. Other details about the device specifications are currently a mystery and will be available in the full TENAA listing of the device.
A separate official event is also scheduled in London on December 5th where the company is expected to announce the Honor V10 smartphone but it will have a different name for the global markets. The Honor V9 was launched as Honor 8 Pro in global markets so we can expect a new name for it in the London event. It might be Honor 9 Pro or Honor 10 Pro.
