Honor 10 Lite India Launch to Held on January 15, Will Be a Flipkart Exclusive

Honor 10 Lite is all set to launch in India on January 15. The smartphone was originally teased for a January 8 unveiling, but the company has since confirmed a launch in India next week, thanks to a Flipkart teaser. The smartphone was launched in China in November, and thus its specifications are known, so can its approximate India price be estimated. Its key features include a HiSilicon Kirin 710 SoC, 24-megapixel camera, and a gradient back panel.

Based on the Flipkart listing, the Honor 10 Lite may launch in India in three colour options - Gradient Blue, Valley White, and Magic Night Black. 

Honor 10 Lite price in India (expected)

For those unaware, the Honor 10 Lite has already been launched in China in November last year. In China, the smartphone's price starts at CNY 1,399 (roughly Rs. 14,400) for the 4GB RAM/ 64GB inbuilt storage variant, CNY 1,699 (roughly Rs. 17,500) for the 6GB RAM/ 64GB storage model, and CNY 1,899 (roughly Rs. 19,500) for the 6GB RAM/ 128GB storage variant. We can expect the India pricing to be around the same range as the China pricing.
