The preview comes from renders uploaded by an insider source in China.
Huawei’s Honor Note 9 has been popping up in leaked reports and gossip tidbits since the first quarter of 2017. The large, bezel-less, 6.6-inch phablet was recently spotted via clear renders from an industry insider in China. There’s a lot to be gleaned from the images, so let’s do a quick breakdown of the notable features.
Looking at the renders, the front of Huawei Honor Note 9 won’t be armed a physical home button and will be shipping with a single selfie camera as well. The handset will be featuring bezel-less sides, in the form of an edge-to-edge display.
The Honor Note 9’s back side will house a dual rear camera setup, in the top-left corner of the frame, paired with what looks like a dual-LED flash unit. The phone’s fingerprint sensor sits at the back as well.
