Well, it appears that the Honor 9X is not the only device that will make its debut in India next week. The Huawei subsidiary has revealed that the new Honor Magic Watch 2 smartwatch and the Honor Band 5i will also be launched alongside the Honor 9X phone in India on January 14. The company has also sent out invites for its upcoming event in India. The Honor Watch Magic 2 comes in two sizes and is powered by the in-house HiSilicon Kirin A1 SoC.
The official Honor India Twitter handle has announced that the Honor Magic 2 smartwatch will be launched in India on January 14, alongside the Honor Band 5i fitness band. From the official teaser posters, it is evident that the Honor Magic Watch 2 smartwatch and the Honor Band 5i fitness band will be available from Amazon in the country post their launch.
