Smartphone brand HONOR today announced the global availability of its flagship smartphone, the HONOR 20, following a record-high sales performance of more than one million units sold in China in a mere 14 days.

The HONOR 20 will go on sale starting with France, Germany, Malaysia, Russia and UK on 21 June; Italy and The Netherlands on 24 June; India on 25 June; Poland on 28 June and Spain in early July. Availabilities in other markets will follow.

The HONOR 20 Series, which comprises the HONOR 20 LITE, HONOR 20 and HONOR 20 PRO, was launched in London on 21 May. It offers a high-end AI Quad Camera and performance.

Huawei’s junior brand is facing cosnsumers' scepticism as a result of the trade war of the U.S. with the China, and the fact that actually the United States used Huawei as a proxy. The US has banned China's domestic companies from engaging in business with Huawei, which includes Honor, though there’s been a 90-day reprieve that muddies the situation.

Honor’s approach to this global trade drama has been to just keep going with its product plans, in the hope that things will improve sooner rather than later.

In any case, it would be wise to wait until parent company Huawei recovers its working relationship with Google before spending your money on the great Honor devices.
