In recent years, Honor hasn’t launched a new phone on the Indian smartphone market. There are recent reports that the company is planning a comeback, headed by Realme’s Madhav Sheth. It is rumored that the Honor 90 will debut in mid-September with a price tag below Rs. 50,000, making it the first device to debut in the country after years.

According to IANS, Honor 90 will be unveiled in the first half of September. It did not specify a specific date but claimed the Honor 90 will cost around Rs 45,000 in India. OnePlus 11R, Oppo Reno 10 Pro, and even the flashy Nothing Phone (2) will all compete against Honor 90 if true.

There is no doubt that the smartphone looks good and could attract the attention of many Indian consumers. In India, smartphones with good camera setups sell well, as evidenced by the popularity of the Oppo Reno and Vivo V series. Aside from extensive ad campaigns and influencer collaborations, there are other factors that drive sales.
