Huawei Honor 9 now available in Robin Blue

Back in June, Huawei unleashed the Honor 9 handset in China. With similar specs but a lower price than the Huawei P10 flagship, this smartphone still has to reach the US market.

In the meantime, select European markets received both the Honor 9 and the Honor 9 Premium that features more memory and storage space. Now, we hear of a new color option that comes with more memory than the regular models, but still no word about Honor 9's launch in the US.

The Robin Blue color option that has just been spotted on Huawei's official online store Vmall is only available with 6 GB RAM and 64 GB internal storage. The other color choices, such as gold, black, blue, and gray, come with 4 GB RAM and 64 GB internal storage.

The list of common features includes a 5.15-inch display, the high-end HiSilicon Kirin 960 processor, 20 MP + 12 MP dual camera setup on the back, NFC and Bluetooth 4.2 connectivity, all powered by a 3,200 mAh battery.

The Robin Blue variant of the Huawei Honor 9 can be purchased in China for the equivalent of US$405.
