Could Honor View 10 be the Ultimate Flagship Killer? Price Revealed in India Ahead of First Sale

Honor has finally revealed the pricing of Honor View 10 which is also known as the Honor V10 globally. Honor V10, the flagship device of Honor was launched back in November in China. In India Honor has priced the Honor View 10 at ₹29,999 which is great enough for the specifications it is offering.

It is no wonder that the release of Honor View 10 in India will make the flagship smartphone market even more competitive. With very similar specs the OnePlus 5T pricing starts at ₹32,999. Even the base model of OnePlus 5T offers only 64GB of storage. Whereas even after saving ₹3,000 the View 10 offers 128 GB of storage.

Here is what P Sanjeev, Vice-President Sales, Huawei India-Consumer Business Group, said about the device,

The Honor View 10 also follows our commitment towards the Indian market and has been priced lower than the global variant. Marked as the true AI device, the Honor View 10 will be the most affordable AI device available for the Indian consumer.
