http://tv.sohu.com/s2014/honor6plus/index.shtml?qq-pf-to=pcqq.c2c
Honor 6 plus is bulletproof they showed a video as such but dont know what they are advertising by that.
3D UI interface also introduced where basically icons widgets etc are 3d'ish in style and usage.
Lots of camera features ofcourse as it is the main highlight.
Chip is Kirin 925 and not 64bit K930. But makes sense they will introduce K930 on Ascend P8 coming CES.
Priced at 2499 for high end version which has dual 4g sim, and 1999 for standard version.
When can officially buy?
Huawei Honor 6 plus volume is very low.
where did you guys buy it form?
Pompmall via the Huaweimobileshop. Left 2 days after order paid for. Bought Monday, arrived in UK with me on Friday. Etowalk now have them as well as others but Etotalk are trusted too.
Isn't that the same benchmark score as the normal Honor 6 puts out?

Huawei has exposed Huawei Honor 8 smartphone with 5.2inch screen

Huawei has officially released Huawei Honor V8, but it’s rumored that Huawei Honor 8 will be coming soon with 5.2inch screen. Right now according to the information by ministry of industry, Huawei has the model, CAM-TL00H to be confirmed to obtain network access license. So a lot of people think it is possible the smartphone is Huawei Honor 8.

From various aspects exposed, thiis CAM-TL00H smartphone is very likely to be the Huawei Honor 8, and it’s said Huawei Honor 8 is in preparation, even the design of the smartphone is more beautiful and exquisite than Huawei Honor V8. In addition, it’s different model from Honor V8.
Some peoples claim that Honor 8 is not the lower version of Honor V8, but also flagship smartphone prepared by Huawei, they will have difference in its screen size. And Honor 8 will come with 5.2inch screen and other specs are similar to Honor V8, but Honor 8 is built in one camera. In the other word, if you like 5.5inch screen dual camera, you can choose Huawei Honor V8, but if you are into 5.2inch screen, Huawei Honor 8 is a good choice.
As for the released time, Huawei Honor 8 will come out officially in June, but the price will be at least 1999 yuan. Although the news has not been confirmed, if the model CAM-TL00 is Huawei Honor 8, Huawei will promote its new model soon according to the Honor official marketing strategy.

What's even greater, is the fact it has the same dual camera found on the p9 (one RGB and the other is Monochrome)

Honor 8 attempts for Guinness Record

A Smartphone attached to a balloon took to the skies on September-5 in an attempt to set a record for the highest live stream from such a device.
That smartphone is nothing but our Huawei Honor 8. The phone was attached to a weather balloon also carrying a camera and other equipment, and set off from the SSC Esrange Space Center in northern Sweden. The balloon was expected to burst at an altitude of 30,000 metres (98,425 ft) with the device then making its way back to down by parachute.
Peter Lundkvist of Huawei Technologies Sweden said the balloon reached 18,421 metres before bursting.
The basic concept was that no one has ever recorded a live stream from that height and thus, the Huawei Honor 8 would be different. There was also a phone charger (to constantly charge the Huawei Honor 8), a GoPro camera and equipment to regulate the temperature and keep the battery safe sent 30kms into the air. The Huawei Honor 8 was attached with a parachute which would help it land. There was a geographic fence created to cut the balloon with a pyrotechnic cutter if the phone came too close to the ground or if there was any issue with the experiment. The balloon was expected to land after 2 and half hours post which it would be tracked by GPS and picked up by a helicopter.
The only real challenge was the maintaining of constant temperature as the temperatures 30kms above could reach -50 degrees and cuase the phone batteries to burst. Thus, the entire operation was carried out using batteries which were space certified and designed for use in vacuum. The batteries used are generally used on SSCs rocket and balloon missions. Though the balloon was expected to reach a height of 30,000 meters, it burst at 18,421 metres. However, it is still the first time that a live-streaming event has been captured using a phone at this altitude and thus, Huawei folks are confident that the Guinness World Records will consider it as a feat.
Peter Lundkvist, marketing manager for Huawei Device Sweden said, “We wanted to do something extraordinary when launching Honor 8. So why not be the ones to do the highest smartphone livestream ever? Honor as a brand stands for braveness and authenticity. What represents these two elements better than a journey towards space?
Hopefully, Guinness (World Records) will accept this as a world record in highest smartphone live streaming.
The Live streamed Video is available at Reuters here - http://www.reuters.com/assets/iframe/yovideo?videoId=369767196

The YotaPhone 3 is coming later this year!

The YotaPhone 3 is coming later this year
But there are very few details so far
by Micah [email protected] Jun 16, 2017, 3:59pm EDT
https://www.theverge.com/circuitbreaker/2017/6/16/15821268/yotaphone-3-price-release-date
The YotaPhone 3 has apparently been announced at a conference in Northern China. The successor to the YotaPhone 2, which made some waves when it came with an E Ink display on its back, will also feature a rear E Ink display, with an AMOLED screen on the front.
The dual-screen smartphone will come in 64GB and 128GB versions for $350 and $450, respectively, and will be available in Russia and China this fall. Other than that, Yota Devices hasn’t said much about the device. They did release this very vague blacked-out photo back in April, however:
Whether the YotaPhone 3 will make its way to the US is another question. Yota Devices has a poor track record with making its devices available in the States — it killed the release of the YotaPhone 2 after a launching a crowdfunding campaign to bring it to the US.
Hopefully things will change this time around, and there will be a US version of the YotaPhone 3. Yota Devices is expected to announce more details around the smartphone later this summer.
I wonder if it will be 5.5 inch like most phones these days. I wouldn't mind that paired with a 5 inch e-ink display

Specs released!
https://www.engadget.com/2017/06/18/yotaphone-3-yota3-specs-snapdragon-625/
You almost guessed it! 5.5 AMOLED and 5.2 EPD!
the Snapdragon 625 will make the Yota 3 look obsolete by the time it launches this fall
WTF, no 6 gorillion core trans-quantum bio 88 dimension CPU? ARETHEYSERIOUS!!!!!??
If they're prioritising affordability and availability over luxury, it might just make a difference to the trivial business they made with Yotaphone 1 and 2 considering the brand value struggled to garner trust on a global scenario, price should be a critical measure to tantalise potential market spheres.

This. Snapdragon 625 is the chip in my Moto Z Play. I have never ever encountered any problems whatsoever and the battery lifetime is insane. I am actually really happy to hear they are using something with a bit less energy hunger than most new phones.
Reveal blacked out yota3 image
I've not seen anyone try adjusting the light levels of the blacked-out Yota3 photo, so here's my attempt to reveal something: https://pasteboard.co/GFM7044.jpg

Well, they posted first 3 official images of YOTA 3, design is really similar to Yota 1, it will be bigger but...idk Yota 2 still looks beautiful
http://4pda.ru/2017/08/23/346239/
It would seem that the Yota 3 does not have a 3.5mm headphone jack... No deal.
