Honor 8X is expected to sport a waterdrop display notch.
After being spotted on TENAA, the Honor 8X's existence has now been confirmed by the company with an official teaser. The teaser poster claims that the smartphone will 'surpass limits', and will be 'beyond imagination'. This could be hinting at more screen-to-body ratio, with the TENAA image leak also hinting at a waterdrop display notch in the front and a huge 7.12-inch display. This could also mean more processing power and RAM on the Honor 8X, but it is all speculation at this point in time.
The teaser poster has been released on social networking site Weibo and we expect to see more teasers revealing features and specifications of the Honor 8X regularly moving forward. There is no confirmation on arrival date, pricing, or specifications yet. To recall, the predecessor Honor 7X was launched in October last year, and the Honor 8X could arrive around the same time this year as well.
Leaks suggest that the Honor 8X will sport a waterdrop display notch, with vertically stacked dual rear cameras and a fingerprint sensor placed at the back.
