In other news, If you haven’t been a follower of Honor news in the past twelve months, you probably will strange the fact that the brand has just released two new smartphones in Europe with Google Play Services.

Thankfully, we’re here to clarify. Huawei sold Honor to a Chinese conglomerate almost one year ago, and in the process, freeing the brand from the ties of the US ban. Now, Honor is free to negotiate with US companies and use US-related technologies.

As a result, the brand is heavily investing in Europe in a bid to become the new Huawei for global customers. Recently, the brand decided to bring the recently-released mid-range smartphones, Honor 50 and 50 Lite to the old continent.
