PREVIEW
With that being said, the Honor 9 is the first Honor
phone to ‘do an Apple’ and remove the 3.5mm
headphone jack from the smartphone, suggesting that
it could also be removed from next year’s Huawei P11.
It’s a move that Apple has faced much criticism for,
and is something that many Android manufacturers
have avoided thus far.
In a concept video published in August 2017
(fave.co/2CnJIsI), the Huawei P11 is shown to have
a titanium body, a full-screen display and an under-
glass fingerprint scanner:
However, just like Apple’s iPhone X the upcoming
Huawei P11 is thought to maximize screen space on its
6.01in display by replicating Apple’s notch.
We expect it will feature the 10nm Kirin 970, which
is the chip that will feature in the Mate 10 and is said to
deliver 25 times better CPU performance and 50 times
greater energy efficiency.
