Nuked Honor has announced the new v40 5G flagship phone. The phone is exclusive to China for now. Honor’s v-series usually makes its way to the rest of the world.
The v40 has a 6.72-inch OLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate. The primary camera has a 1/1.56-inch 50-megapixel sensor. The 4,000mAh battery can be charged wirelessly at 50W or at 66w with a cable.
Honor was operated independently from Huawei, but relied on the parent company for much of its technology, such as Hisense’s Kirin processors. That meant it was hit just as hard by us sanctions banning US companies from doing business with Huawei.
The v40 phones will have been in development since earlier than November. Now that Huawei has divested itself of honor, the v40 may be able to ship with Google services on board.
