Last week, several variants of the entry-level Honor 8A were certified by the Wi-Fi Alliance. The smartphone had also been certified by TENAA last month. Honor has now officially announced that the smartphone will be launched in China on January 08. As you may have guessed by its name, the Honor 8A will succeed the Honor 7A. The Honor 7A was launched in China in April last year and made its way to the Indian market a month later.

The Honor 8A launch poster confirms the smartphone will be available with 64GB of internal storage. Previously, it was rumored that the handset will be available in 32GB and 64GB storage variants. Aside from that, the poster also seems to suggest the Honor 8A will have impressive audio performance. Since the current Honor 7A has dual speakers, there is a strong possibility that the Honor 8A may also come with stereo speakers. A waterdrop notch design has been confirmed as well. As revealed by the smartphone’s TENAA certification last month, Honor 8A will feature a 6.09-inch display with 720 x 1560 pixels HD+ resolution. Thanks to the waterdrop notch design, the Honor 8A is expected to have a significantly higher screen-to-body ratio than its predecessor. Powering the Honor 8A will be an octa-core processor clocked at 2.2 GHz. In the memory department, the handset is expected to come with 3GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage. For further storage expansion, we expect the smartphone to have a microSD card slot.
