Honor 10 Lite with 24MP selfie camera, dewdrop notch to be launched in mid-Jan; Check features, price and more

New Delhi : Huawei's sub-brand Honor is set to launch Honor 10 Lite with a 24MP selfie camera, its home-grown Kirin 710 processor and a dewdrop notch display in India in mid-January, industry sources told IANS on Friday.

This is the first time the smartphone maker is ditching wide-notch design in favour of a dewdrop-style notch, which would render over 91 per cent screen-to-body ratio to the device, the sources added.

The upcoming smartphone would feature Artificial Intelligence (AI)-powered features and an updated EMUI 9.0 Operating System (OS). The smartphone would be equipped with scene detection technology with AI on both rear and front cameras.

Honor 10 Lite specifications

The Honor 10 Lite sports a 6.21-inch FHD+ display with a resolution of 2340 x 1080 pixels and a waterdrop notch on top to provide room for the selfie camera and other sensors. On the hardware front, it makes use of an octa-core HiSilicon Kirin 710 SoC paired with various RAM and storage capacities as mentioned above. It also has a microSD card slot supporting up to 512GB of additional storage space.

Honor 10 Lite is the successor to Honor 9 Lite launched in India in 2018.
